Mexican band Café Tacvba premiered their new documentary titled "The Object Previously Called Album" in Mexico City.
In an interview with Mexican cinema company Cinépolis which is in charge of distributing the film in the Mexican Republic, the band's members talked about their experience as colleagues throughout their artistic career.
Quique Rangel, bassist, said that he agreed with the vision presented by American director Gregory W. Allen, who mixed the documentary with an innovative artistic proposal.
The Associated Press reported that in the documentary, Allen wanted to capture the essence of the Mexican band, where it shows the personalities of its members with images of them recording an album in the presence of their fans.
"This work is an observation of the process of recording an album. Just like 'The Object Previously Called Album' was an experiment for Café Tacvba. It was also an experiment for me, but with a camera", said the American director.
Singer Rubén Albarrán said that during the year of filming, intimate moments were captured while recording the album, which also shows some of the band's performances in Los Angeles, Buenos Aires and Santiago.
"There's a lot of work, but we love it. Besides, we're not too focused on results, it's the journey that we enjoy. I'm very excited because in the end, that's why we do this, this effort. It's finally done," said the singer for Café Tacvba.
Café Tacvba finished a phase in their 25 years of artistic trajectory with the documentary "The Object Previously Called Album", and according to Quique Rangel, the band will take a break to think about their future.
The film will also be sold on DVD and will be a part of the Ambulante documentary tour created by Mexican actors Gael García and Diego Luna.
