Soon after the release of their first album, El Equilibrio de los Jaguares, José Manuel dropped out of the band and Federico Fong took a break from the band, relatedly, as well. Saúl and Alfonso looked for a person who could replace José Manuel. After a period of time, Saúl found the perfect replacement, César López Garcia, most famously known as "El Vampiro" (During Saúl's time in Caifanes he once called "El Vampiro" to invite him to Caifanes, but his invitation was declined, because "El Vampiro" felt in a good position; He was in Azul Violeta during this time. He was also a member of Maná from 1991-1994.) The look for a guitarist was over, but the search for a bassist was still remaining. Sabo Romo, the ex-bassist of Caifanes, was invited to join Jaguares and he accepted. Saúl added one more musician to Jaguares, Jarris Margalli; Jarris did keyboards and samplers.
After the release of their second album, Sabo took a break from the band and Jarris was fired from the band, because Saúl and Alfonso didn't need him in the band, since he was only doing small things in songs that were basically, needless. Jaguares got their name from one of Saúl's dreams. He dreamt that he was singing in a jaguar's mouth.
In 2007, Instant Karma: The Amnesty International Campaign to Save Darfur was released. It is a compilation album of various artists covering songs of John Lennon to benefit Amnesty International's campaign to alleviate the crisis in Darfur. In it Jaguares cover the protest song "Gimme Some Truth" from Lennon's 1971 album Imagine.

Jaguares Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
La tierra ayuda no parar
Las montañas protegen
Ese curso que no conoces, y te vas
Cuando la sangre galopa
Es imposible mirar atrás
Como una flecha cruzando
Cuando la sangre galopa
El aire te avienta a la inmensidad
Y te miras por dentro
Y miras el universo
Cuando la sangre galopa
Los ancestros se vuelven dioses
Y te vas
Y te vas haciendo fuerte
Cuando la sangre galopa
El aire te avienta a la inmensidad
Y te miras por dentro
Y miras el universo
Y te miras por dentro
Y miras el universo
