Name That Band

Reading this nifty article by Nick Hornby in the New York Times, I was intrigued by the following passage:
The pop music critic of The Guardian recently reviewed a British band that reminded him — pleasantly, I should add — of "the hammering drum machine and guitar of controversial 80's trio Big Black and the murky noise of early Throbbing Gristle." I have no doubt whatsoever that the band he was writing about (a band with a name too confrontational and cutting-edge to be repeated here) will prove to be one of the most significant cultural forces of the decade, nor that it will produce music that forces us to confront the evil and horror that resides within us all.
Fucking. Awesome.

So who's the band? Selfish Cunt. And here's the full review from the Guardian.

(special thanks to Andy for helping me track this down)
