		Technology and mass media also have something to do with the fact that Banda Maguey takes such an expansive, broad-minded approach to Mexican banda music on Metamorfosis, which is banda-oriented, but certainly not the work of banda purists.
		Viva la Banda has a very traditional banda/corrido outlook, whereas Metamorfosis is all over the place in terms of influences -- and those influences range from dance/club grooves to tropical music (that is, Dominican bachata-merengue, Afro-Cuban salsa, and Colombian cumbia -- although Banda Maguey is hardly oblivious to the Mexican interpretation of cumbia).
		In the regional Mexican market, Banda Maguey aren't without their critics; some Mexican listeners feel that they can be overly gimmicky at times, and "El Marcianito" (for example) is definitely on the cutesy, precious side.
