Selfish Sucker is a street punk band from this shithole isle called Taiwan where more often than not, "street punk" comes into people's mind simply as a shitty fad-icon, despised even by the local scene.

Influenced by UK 82' street punk bands, Selfish sucker are schoolmates, the vocal A-Shen, the bassist A-Pan and drummer ET, and guitarist Pei-Gen. Their music is raw and fierce, yet with simplicity and directness. In terms of the lyrics, instead of singing nilistic bullshit about drinking beer or girl-chasing romance, they just told the audience about their wasted youth with the tinge of anger and frustration toward dumb social machine.
