CLASH Magazine - Blaggers & Liars EP Review - May 2008

.. Kav seems to have been surviving on a staple diet of barbituates and sleazy, sunset strip Rock ‘n’ Roll. Deciding to roll the dice and go it alone, songs from forthcoming EP such as Lizard King’ (which sounds suitably like it was written after a Mescal binge in the desert) and the pulsing glitch-pop of ‘Blaggers And Liars’ sees the London-based Kav let loose the demons that presumably come with partying with Shaun Ryder for half a decade (yikes!). The result of meeting satan at the crossroads every month is a low-slung, blues –indebted rock ‘n’ roll outing seeped in whisky-soaked saloon brawls and murder ballad gusto.”
THE DAILY STAR - APRIL 2008
"Oozing testosterone, it sounds like it's been marinated in JD and soaked in Marlborough smoke along the way..... Imagine Shaun Ryder-meets Bob Dylan with a big injection of off-your-face techno and you're almost there."

THE SUN - APRIL 2008 - ** 4 STARS OUT 5 **
"Dirge-like blues rock that's part Primal's XTRMNTR through its harsh beats and part Sisters Of Mercy with gloomy guitars."
THE GUARDIAN - New Band of The Day - 15th March 2008

".... On his forthcoming Blaggers & Liars EP, (Kav) touts the sort of electronically enhanced, krautrock-inflected riff rock and high-energy mescal-blues purveyed by Primal Scream on their Vanishing Point and XTRMNTR albums. His EP is an eclectic case in point: the title track has the speed and attack of the Scream in chugging, charging Neu! mode.
Lizard King starts off slow and swaggering and features bluesy slide guitar before transforming into a Led Zep-ish riff monster, like The Stone Roses circa Second Coming. Easy is a blues-soaked missive about life's "chancers", and Satanic Circus Mask makes you think of The Stone's 'Sympathy For The Devil' hauled into the digital age by Death In Vegas. Lyrically, Kav veers between the lysergic dementia of Shaun Ryder and the insurrectionary fervour of Bobby Gillespie".... " (Paul Lester)

Clash Magazine – One’s to Watch – May 2008
"Reminiscent of The Stone Roses when they swapped Frankie Knuckles for John Bonham, Kav’s debut is a bluesy, swaggering affair, with the singer refusing to pull his punches... ‘Blaggers & Liars’ he may detest, but Kav can rest easy as on this evidence he’s got the goods to match his boasting."

KAV BIOG
Kav is a British artist from Leicester, based in London UK & Los Angeles. Kav launched his solo career in February 2008 with his band, featuring long-term teenage friend James Portas.Kav has recently been compared to “A Latter-day Jagger” by The Guardian (UK)
& on his début EP he has been likened vocally with the likes of Bob Dylan, Shaun Ryder, Bobby Gillespie & Lou Reed. The music has been compared to 'The Stones' Sympathy For The Devil hauled into the digital age by Death In Vegas' (see press summary), plus Black Rebel Motorcycle Club & the harder edge of Led Zeppelin.
Kav writes thought-provoking, meaningful songs, putting his unique & modern stamp on authentic/ pychedelic Rock N' Roll
. Kav released his Debut Solo EP 'Blaggers N Liars' in April 2008 on buzz London Imprint "This Feeling Records" with rave reviews from the UK & International press.
Born of a mind that at 28, has already been opened as wide as the Watford Gap and come out fighting (you don’t tour with Shaun Ryder and return an innocent), the ‘Blaggers & Liars EP’ was the first hint of Kav’s adventures this year; with his Follow-up Single 'Rock Chick/ Soul Kid'
scheduled for release on 13th October 2008 , and a debut album to follow.

"This blagger is a latterday Jagger!" ....
THE GUARDIAN - 15th March 2008:
"Blaggers 'N' Liars" is a swaggering, bluesy beast. Released on April 21st, Kav looks set to well and truly get the party started."
CLASH MAGAZINE - 25th March 2008"Kav, leads his 'band of pirates' on a journey that makes no attempt to conform to the modern indie sound. Heavy bluegrass riffs cast against a plaintive Lou Reed-esque vocal set them apart from anything about at the moment.... Lizard King and Killing Yourself are stylishly bluesy while final song and current EP Blaggers'n'Liars peers down like a mature but broody Black Rebel Motorcycle Club."Birmingham Mail - 16 May 2008-------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------
