Our Take
Our Take
10CC's "Deceptive Bends" is a musical rollercoaster that takes you on a wild ride through genres, emotions, and haircuts. From the whimsical pop sensibilities of "Good Morning Judge" to the soulful melancholy of "People in Love", this album is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're gonna get, but it's always delicious.
The band's witty lyrics and catchy hooks are on full display on tracks like "I'm Mandy, Fly Me" and "The Things We Do for Love", showcasing their knack for crafting tunes that stick in your head like bubblegum on a hot summer day. And let's not forget the instrumental prowess on display here - the guitar solos, keyboard flourishes, and vocal harmonies all come together to create a sonic tapestry that is at once intricate and accessible.
Listening to "Deceptive Bends" is like taking a trip back in time to the golden age of 70s pop music, when bands weren't afraid to experiment and push boundaries. 10CC may have been known for their cheeky sense of humor, but there's no denying the serious musical chops on display here. So grab your bell-bottoms, crank up the volume, and let yourself be transported to a world where the music is groovy and the vibes are good.
