Café Tacvba

Celebrating their 20th Anniversary, the Mexican four-piece Café Tacvba unfortunately isn't well characterized by the rock en espanol tag, for the "rock music sung in Spanish" descriptor does little justice to the stylistic diversity and creative strides showcased by Café Tacvba over the course of their career. The band employs a standard rock lineup of guitar/bass/drums with vocals, certainly, but the members also incorporate electronics as well as exotic instrumentation into their music, which encompasses styles as divergent as punk and ballads as well as regional Mexican and ambient electronica.
