Feb's DJ Mag is out and it looks like they love us .. ok not love but something like that

They just wrote in their reviews page


"Grindie" strikes back for 2007 with this EP from "Chatham's smuttiest grime peddlers" The Mavs - A lively bunch of MCs / producers linking grime, rock and hip hop. "Dumpweed" doesn't have a conventional grime beat, but chugs along like early 70's glam complete with pumping electric guitar riff and gritty sneer from a John Lydon-esque lead vocal (circa P.I.L.). Shades of Mike Skinner, Plan B, Kano and erm, Jarvis Cocker give this EP a colourful, thoroughly British slant.

5/5

Last week we tried to launch our debut 12" ep "Slightly Smutty" at two venues in London and failed. Cited As ....."Too Loud & Offensive"


Firstly we were were locked out of the official launch venue, The Medicine Bar in Shoreditch, due to fire safety issues .. Yeah right !

The promoter (we don't mention his name anymore) then took the brave step of booking The Foundry ( owned by Bill Drummond of KLF fame) also in EC2 so that the we could launch into our own version of suburban mayhem... But within 20 minutes we were hurled offstage with the Foundry management citing us as too "loud & offensive"

At this time The Mavs are still looking for a London venue who'll let us play for more than 15 minutes
