What people say "it was the grooviest shit I've ever seen" D.Trampf (nhow Berlin) "THE HOO: Das sind fünf Jungs aus ganz Europa die ihren mitreißenden Funk auf der Bühne leben. Mit Querflöte und Chaospad erschaffen sie ihren eigenen gleichzeitig angerockt und abgerappten Funk." M. Priller (Emergenza Germany) "Quando li senti suonare dal vivo gli Hoo hanno un carisma che ti trascina, la loro musica è fresca e solare, ... il ritmo contagia il pubblico quasi come un virus" R. Enis (il Mitte) "...Si jamais vos enceintes n’explosent pas déjà à l’écoute de l’album, n’hésitez pas à aller vous confronter à la charge de dynamite qu’est leur performance live." (M. Capel -‐ Berlin Poche)
