From MUZIKUS.CZ, the top music portal in the Czech Republic:
“In G8’s debut album, there is a mixture of good musical talent combined with the multiple world experiences of its members, which accounts for the effect of multiple musical styles. The number Hot Sex Love is funky, while Try and I Cry is decidedly Arabic...The album shows off the musicians at their full potential, from instrumental solos to the varied voices of its members. As a result, no two songs are alike.
And the album itself? It churns along in its own tempo without even bothering to stop to see if anyone is in its way.”
FIVE STARS (out of seven)!!!

„You’ll get the parody of the group’s name with the first song. The rhythm grooves in straight shot format aimed at the falsehoods of the eight super powers…Our tip: Hot Sex Love – mix your partner a mojito and give yourself up to the beat.“ - ZOOM Magazine
Karel Souèek, MF Dnes:
"G8 offers us a trip arend the Word, with thein debut CD. Along with serious rhythms, each and every song is full of sweet femal vocals, varied musical arrangements and super instrumental solos from virtually all musicians. "
