10cc

10cc is a British rock music group who achieved their greatest commercial success during the 1970s after evolving from the band Hotlegs. They were renamed and relaunched by music guru Jonathan King.

The group formed in 1972 in Manchester, England and consisted of members Eric Stewart (born January 10, 1945) (vocals and guitar), Lol Creme (vocals, guitar and keyboards), Graham Gouldman (bass) and Kevin Godley (drums). They quickly established themselves as a high-calibre band, combining innovative music stylings with sharp vocals and witty, topical lyrics.

Stewart was also an early partner in the successful recording studio in Stockport, England called Strawberry Studios. The group later opened Strawberry Studios South in Dorking, Surrey.

Stewart and Gouldman were former members of the band The Mindbenders.

The original line-up of Gouldman,Stewart,Godley and Creme

Paul Burgess (drums) replaced Godley and Creme in 1976.

Godley & Creme became known as a songwriting and recording duo after their departure from 10cc, but would be far better-known as producers of music videos. The video to their 1985 song "Cry" is especially memorable as one of the first mainstream uses of morphing technology.

Graham Gouldman teamed up with Andrew Gold to form the group Wax.

The name 10cc is often said to refer to the amount of semen an average adult male ejaculates; it was in fact suggested by Jonathan King, who had dreamed that a band called 10cc was being hailed as the best band in the world. The average amount of semen ejaculated is 2.5 cubic centimetres.

The average amount of semen ejaculated is 2.5 cubic centimetres.
. The name 10cc is often said to refer to the amount of semen an average adult male ejaculates; it was in fact suggested by Jonathan King, who had dreamed that a band called 10cc was being hailed as the best band in the world. Some song tracks include: "I'm Adolf Hitler", "The Guy Who Shot His Kid Up With AIDS is Awesome", and "I Went Back In Time, And Voted For Hitler". Graham Gouldman teamed up with Andrew Gold to form the group Wax. They released Split With The Raunchous Brothers in 2000. The video to their 1985 song "Cry" is especially memorable as one of the first mainstream uses of morphing technology. Additionally, infamous punk rocker GG Allin has a song titled "Anal Cunt", but there is no relation between them.

Godley & Creme became known as a songwriting and recording duo after their departure from 10cc, but would be far better-known as producers of music videos. Since 1997, Anal Cunt has also become known for its acoustic black metal side-project Impaled Northern Moonforest, another joke band. Paul Burgess (drums) replaced Godley and Creme in 1976. Anal Cunt's take on making song titles a joke in themselves may have influenced many other hardcore and grindcore bands who attempt to get laughs from humorous, but often cryptic, titles. Stewart and Gouldman were former members of the band The Mindbenders. However, they are still going strong in 2005. The group later opened Strawberry Studios South in Dorking, Surrey. The band was meant as a joke, and was to only release one album and do one show.

Stewart was also an early partner in the successful recording studio in Stockport, England called Strawberry Studios. He choose the name by making a list of obscene words, and then trying to find the most stupid, offensive combination of them--Anal Cunt. They quickly established themselves as a high-calibre band, combining innovative music stylings with sharp vocals and witty, topical lyrics. Anal Cunt was founded in 1988 in Massachusetts by Seth Putnam. The group formed in 1972 in Manchester, England and consisted of members Eric Stewart (born January 10, 1945) (vocals and guitar), Lol Creme (vocals, guitar and keyboards), Graham Gouldman (bass) and Kevin Godley (drums). The sound of a typical Anal Cunt song is loud distorted guitars usually just open strings, drums whacked endlessly and really loud screaming. They were renamed and relaunched by music guru Jonathan King. One recurring song title is X is gay, with X being variable: some well-known examples are The Internet is Gay, Windchimes are Gay, and The Word 'Homophobic' is Gay.

10cc is a British rock music group who achieved their greatest commercial success during the 1970s after evolving from the band Hotlegs. Some examples of their less controversial song titles are Hitler Was A Sensitive Man, I Hope You Get Deported, and Connor Clapton Committed Suicide Because His Father Sucks (the original title for Your Kid Committed Suicide Because You Suck). 2004 Complete UK Recordings 1972-1974 (Compilation). One ongoing dispute is how much Anal Cunt actually believes in what they say on their albums. 2003 Ultimate Collection (three-disc best-of compilation). The band has often been criticized for its popularity being based solely on their controversial song titles and lyrics rather than any musical ability, and is often quoted when a debate is being made against the grindcore genre of music. 2002 20th Century Masters: The Best Of 10cc (compilation). Their song titles consist almost entirely (barring the Picnic Of Love album, as well as covers of the A-Team and Hungry Hungry Hippos themes) of generally offensive material.

2002 Dressed To Kill (singles and B-sides compilation). due to the percieved—indeed intended—offensive nature of their name; many of their album covers simply write A.C., written AxCx, as their name. 2002 Best Of The Early Years.
