I think Cafe Tacuba actually kind of sounds like the Smashing Pumpkins of Spanish rock (Rock en Español, if you prefer). Could be just the voice resembling Billy Corgan's style at times, though. There's a good variety of music-types on this album, slow, fast, fast, slow, medium? Whatever. My point is, Cafe Tacuba shows off their musicality on this album by covering a large portion of the musical spectrum. This comes through on the instrumentals as well as the vocal-style on each track. And, I'm willing to guess that the lyrics probably show the same trend if you listen closely enough.
This album is decent sounding...not great, but not bad. A bit different than your standard pop-sounding music that usually hits the music scene in the U.S. I, personally, tend to like their style on the slower songs more than their sound on the fast-tempo ones.
My vote: 3
My favorite track: "Eres" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZDbdxNpK_0
