No i don’t have tourettes, Selfish C*nt is the name of a band i saw in London on my last night there. I’d seen them play previously at South By Southwest so was aware of the anarchic live show. Accompanied by a guitarist and drum machine, the lead singer Martin stalks around the stage, at various moments squealing, leaping on tables, hurling microphones, antagonising the audience and writhing on the floor.
I was quite surprised by the reaction from some friends i went to the show with. They hated it with a passion. I guess it’s not for everyone, seeing them play is more like performance art than your average gig. Some might say it’s a bit juvenile and self indulgent, but that’s what i find so fascinating. There’s a danger in the air, an unpredictable tension as he leaps into the audience to taunt people. Certainly more interesting to watch than your average indie shoegazers. And a lot more rewarding to photograph.
Wow this is great!! I REALLY like that middle one!
I loved that whole set of photo’s.
The lead singer should be a role model for thin-armed gents everywhere. He shows that we can be remarkably sexy.
Loved the set. Top stuff.
I don’t think I’d enjoy their show at all. But the photos are fabulous!
Wow, great photos. I think I’d enjoy watching them, as juvenille and self engrossed as they seem.
Selfish Cunt fucking suck balls – the worst band I’ve ever seen. You must be a real cocksmoker to get into that shite…nice photos though…cocksmoker…
I told you they provoke a strong reaction in people…
i need to know so much more.
i love the pics. i absolutely adore that band. they have great potential, not like all the shit libertines boring look a like bands around
