Artists > Kick To Kill
Bio
Until 2011 Kick To Kill were a band who remained Scotland’s best kept secret. Live shows have provoked stunned reactions, with reviewers recognising that for once this could be a genuine successor to greats like Joy Division, Jesus and Mary Chain and The Stooges. Recent single ‘Black Kisses’ saw the band emerge as ones to watch for 2012. Support slots have included The Fall, A Place To Bury Strangers, The Damned and John Cooper Clarke. New single ‘Avalanche’ represents another significant advance. With a killer debut album set for release later this year, 2012 could be the year for audiences to discover Kick To Kill. Radio play has included Tom Robinson, Jim Gellatly and stations around the globe.

“That bands like Kick To Kill are releasing records in 2011 is proof that God really does exist… one of the best tracks the Devil’s heard all year.”
The Devil Has The Best Tuna
“This is as uplifting as you can possibly get without chemicals…It’s like Depeche Mode featuring Jaz Coleman from Killing Joke. It’s that amazing.”
Daily Record
“Big sounds and big ideas from a band who may well be destined for big things.”
Sound of Confusion
“Like you’re in a club with The Stooges in their heyday.”
Shout 4 Music
“Angry guitar, bobbing bass-line and sci-fi synths.. I wouldn’t be surprised if they quickly gathered a dedicated following.”
God Is In The TV
“You can’t help but get excited about these guys. You are going to like this band, but you probably won’t be able to put your finger on why.”
EGL Magazine
“Dark yet danceable riffs… The group’s vocalist David Cook almost reminds me of Ian Curtis. They could become a major name.”
Cosmos Gaming
“The single best song I’ve heard from a Scottish group in a very long time”

“At last – a band that lives up to its hype!”
