I'm just a dabbler, but I like them and have been meaning to take the plunge for years.

My favourite at the moment is their song Don't hang up which is both funny and awesome. From what I can tell there's a layer of humour to most of what they do and I really like that.

Also seems like one of those bands where every member could do anything.

They're such a polarizing band, some people hate them because they find them to be insufferable smartasses, others like myself love them for that same reason.

They were basically the Ween of the 70s.

Anti-intellectualism is so dumb, in music and elsewhere. I consider myself an anti-dumbualist.

I used to love 10cc in the day. I especially liked I'm Not in Love (favorite song of 1975) and Art For Art's Sake but anything up to How Dare You rates as a good listen to me.

I'm very partial to the album, Deceptive Bends. I am surprised you didn't put a word in for Feel the Benefit. The intro is very much like Dear Prudence, and there are parts of the songs that seem pastiche to John and Paul's solo music.

Is Musicbanter Harvard in this analogy?

Smartassedness is more about douchiness than intelligence though. It's arguably the dumbest way to implement your intellect tbh.
