All Music Guide

The non-chronologically sequenced 15-track compilation De Caifanes a Jaguares (2008) spans singer/songwriter Saúl Hernández's tenure in the Mexican alternative rock bands Caifanes and Jaguares. Caifanes released four albums between 1988 and 1994, and several selections on De Caifanes a Jaguares date back to this period, most notably the hits "La Célula Que Explota," "Mátenme Porque Me Muero," and "La Negra Tomasa." Highlights from Hernández's less celebrated work with Jaguares comprise the remainder of De Caifanes a Jaguares.
