"Café Tacvba has been Mexico's pre-eminent rock band for (two decades), and it keeps getting better and more ambitious... one of the most important bands in the hemisphere"- The New York Times"the Beatles of Latin alternative music... The group remains the marquee name in Spanish-language rock... Nobody has come along to challenge the stature and influence of Café Tacvba."- Los Angeles Times
"Mexico's premier rock band... The group invites reckless fun... " -- Ben Ratliff, The New York Times
"They're bringing their identity to play in a more global game." -- Gustavo Santaolalla, Grammy and Oscar Award-winning producer.
"Because Café Tacvba draws not just from rock and new wave, but from Mexico and Latin America, they have a wider palette than any band I can think of." -- Victor Indrizzo (Beck)
"Number 1 Latin Rock album of All Time (Re). Every album that the Mexican quartet released after this one is just as good, but Re was the one that redefined the rules of the game. It was OK to scoff at Mexico's norteño roots, provided the nod was as affectionate and inspired as their hit "La Ingrata." It was valid to embrace the foreign influence of rock & roll and punk, as long as it was blended with authentic Latin sounds. A feeling or reckless enthusiasm permeates Re's 20 tracks -- the wide-eyed grin of a young band discovering the grand achievements it was capable of. " -- Rolling Stone
"Not unlike Radiohead, they just keep evolving in unpredictable ways." -- Nic Harcourt KCRW
"One of the biggest and most iconic Latin American bands." Billboard
