this album makes me remember the days when i used to go to middle school in palmdale, ca. the first rock in spanish i ever heard was Caifanes and whenever i hear a caifanes album it brings back memories and i feel goosebumps. man, those were the days. the quality of this and their other three albums are timeless, and that's why everyone, past and present, can become hooked to this ethereal piece of music. thank you, caifanes.

Es necesario aclarar que el nombre del disco es "Volumen I" y no "Mátenme porque me muero" como ahí dice. Se cree que se llama así porque el mismo título no parece un título y ésto lleva a pensar que el disco no tiene título. Como el primer sencillo de este disco (y de los Caifanes) fue "Mátenme porque me muero", la creencia falsa de que se llama así es, en cierta forma, válida. Algunos lo conocen como "Caifanes" otros como "Mátenme porque me muero", como "El negro". El verdadero nombre y que viene en el disco es "Volumen I".
En este primer diso el grupo hace un excelente debut y tiene un gran éxito con el cover de "La negra tomasa" que fue un hit. El disco recibió muy malas críticas (también buenas) que son de resaltar. Se pensaba que el grupo era comercial y basura por el hecho de haber pegado con "La negra tomasa", ésto es totalmente falso, es algo que Caifanes vendría a demostrar con el tiempo y sus demás producciones.
De este disco también fue sencillo "Viento". El disco contiene una participación especial muy destacable, Gustavo Cerati (de Soda Stereo) tocando la guitarra en "La Bestia Humana".
Es un clásico del rock en español por ser el debut de esta banda tan buena... y no sólo por éso, sino por su gran calidad musical. Es, junto con El Silencio, mi disco preferido de esta banda.

Yes indeed, this is a dark recording with great lyrics, catchy rythems, and excellent muscianship. Saul's voice has a natural sadness that adds such meaning and depth to the song's messages. My fave is "Viento", also "matenme...", "Te Estoy Mirando" y "¿Sera Por Eso?". Add this to your collection for sure if you have not yet done so.

I RECOMMEND YOU BUY IT IN A BUNDLE WITH OTHER CDS, THAT WAY THEY COME IN A BOX ! MOST LIKELY TO ARRIVE SECURELY, THAN A SINGLE CD IN A PAPER /PLASTIC BAG ! OR DON'T BUT FROM THE "SEE ALL OTHER SELLERS " LIST CAUSE THEY'LL ONLY SEND ONE CD, AND IT MAY GET LOST ! OR FINALLY PAY A LITTLE MORE AND GET IT FROM THE " AMAZON SHOPPING CART " THEY NEVER GET LOST ! ..I RECOMMEND THE CD ANYHOW ! IT'S ONE OF THEIR BEST ! EDDIE FROM CHICAGO

Primer album de Caifanes. Uno de los primeros discos de rock mexicano con calidad internacional.

El sonido y la imagen de este disco nos hacen recordar mucho a The Cure (basta escuchar temas como "Te estoy mirando" y "Cuentame Tu Vida"). Aunque este es el unico disco donde se deja escuchar esta influencia. En trabajos posteriores la musica de la banda se va a ir mas hacia el afro-rock.

"Matenme porque me muero" y "Viento" fueron los sencillos de este disco, y pusieron a Caifanes en la escena del rock nacional (aunque en realidad ellos fueron la piedra angular del movimiento del rock en tu idioma en Mexico).

Las letras hablan de la depresion ("Sera por eso"), la represion ("Amanece") y el vacio ("Cuentame Tu Vida", "Nada").

Canciones recomendadas: Matenme porque me muero, Viento y Nada.

En la primera edicion del disco no se incluyen "La Negra Tomasa" ni "Perdi Mi Ojo de Venado" estas dos canciones salieron en un sencillo, y se agregaron al disco en la re-edicion de 1993.

Al comienso de los años 80, este grupo se hiso conocer como Caifanes ya que al principio de sus carreras como musico era nombrado diferente. Su primer censillo "Matenme por que me muero" fue una sensacion entre lajuventud mexicana. Despues sobresalio con un ritmo sabroso como "La negra Tomasa" y de mas exito haciendose uno de los grupo de rock en español mas sobresalientes y asi sucesivamente han echo historia hasta haver llagado en un muy importante lugar. Siendo asi Caifanes, una gran historia que siempre llevaremos dentro de nuestros corazones y dentro de nuestro recuerdos y oidos como uno de los mejores grupos en su epoca. Caifanes vivira por siempre y para siempre.

My favorite recording. Wanted to recreate my cassette collection, so I re-purchased the CD versions of this and others. Must have for Rock en Español enthusiasts.
