Re was Café Tacuba's second and perhaps most important album - and arguably the most important album in the history of Mexico's music scene. It has been compared to the White Album, by The Beatles. The name probably comes from the second syllable in Solfege, perhaps because it was their second album. It was released in 1994 and consisted of twenty songs.

This album established Café Tacuba's style of genre-switching, which hadn't been as obvious in their debut album, Café Tacuba, released two years earlier. Its sheer length - an hour long - and brilliant experimentation with musical styles has made it a favorite among fans. One notable aspect of the album is that it contains several parodies of musical genres, notably "La Ingrata", a parody of norteño music. That song also showcases dramatically the vocal capabilities of Rubén Albarrán, credited on this album as "Cosme".
