Selfish Cunt are a British rock band, part of the post-punk revival. 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. They are better known as a live act, rather than listening to their studio recordings, which are generally panned by critics. Their mix of electric guitar and electronic drum machines is accompanied by highly politically-charged lyrics. Due to their highly provocative image, as well as their name, Selfish Cunt have a mixed reputation amongst critics and have had disproportionate media coverage with respect to their record sales and fanbase, particularly in The Guardian, which named them as one of the 40 most important bands in the UK.
