Selfish Cunt

Selfish Cunt are a rock band based in London, England. They were formed in early 2003 by main members Martin Tomlinson and Patrick Constable. They are notorious for their highly provocative lyrics, aggressive stage shows, and brutal electronic-influenced rock. Their mix of electric guitar and electronic drum machines is accompanied by highly politically-charged and often sexually graphic lyrics. Due to their highly provocative image, as well as their name, Selfish Cunt have a mixed reputation amongst critics, and have had a great deal of media coverage, particularly in The Guardian, which named them as one of the 40 most important bands in the UK. They have now expanded to a four piece band with drums and bass and their new sound is much heavier. Time Out magazine has described them as "one of Londons most exciting live acts", and Tomlinson as "the closest thing to Iggy Pop this generation will produce".

Selfish Cunt released an album in September 2008 titled English Chamber Music. The record was met with rave reviews, some citing them as the saviours of modern english independent bands.
