Notable Quotes

❝ The great merit of this crew remains their desire to experiment and entertain/have fun at the same time.

❝ Well, from my modest point of view this is one of the albums of the year (most probably the best debut), and the only thing left for me to do is to wish the Bugz a career equally creative, while to you dear readers, one or more dancing evenings to the rhythm of these immense songs.
