Kevin Godley / Lol Creme (Кевин Годли и Лол Крим) - "артистическая" составляющая группы 10сс (занимались звуковыми, поэтическими и концептуальными экспериментами). Собственно группа Godley & Creme была создана после выхода альбма 10сс How Dare You! и ухода из даннного коллектива Годли и Крима. Godley and Creme сконцентрировались на производстве видео, разработали и внедрили в практику гитарное приспособление под названием Gizmo и выпустили тройной альбом Consequences (1976), развернутое концептуальное произведение в создании которого приняли участие юморист Питер Кук и джазовая певица Сара Воэн. Использовался в альбоме и gizmotron: электрогитарная приставка, снабженная клавишами, которая, прикрепленная к грифу гитары, позволяла достигать састейн любой продолжительности. Благодаря этому устройству дуэт сократил расходы на запись, успешно имитируя струнные. Godley & Creme - один из самых эклектичных коллективов британской рок-сцены. Дебютный концептуальный тройной альбом Consequences о борьбе человека с природой был высмеян критиками за претенциозность и продолжительность. Плохие отзывы в прессе и коммерческий провал альбома чуть не разрушил карьеру дуэта. Тем не менее альбом 1981 года Under My Thumb попал в британскую топ-десятку (British Top Ten). Но самую большую известность они получили как создатели в 80-х клипов для MTV (они работали с группами Police, Duran Duran и Frankie Goes to Hollywood) и смогли первыми доказать, что и клип может быть искусством. В 1985 году они выпустили убойное по тем временам видео Cry. Именно там были использованны невиданные по тем временам инновационные спецэффекты, которые показали лица людей, превращающиеся в друг друга. После этого группа не смогла подняться на высоты Cry и выпустив в 1988 году альбом Goodbye Blue Sky - они сосредоточились на производстве видео. В 1992 году была попытка воссоединения группы 10сс - Крим и Годли согласились участвовать в проекте, исключительно, чтобы выполнить контрактные обязательства перед «Полидором», которому задолжали по альбому каждый еще с конца 1980-х. Лейбл приложил все усилия, чтобы подать пластинку как реюнион, но успеха это не принесло.

Allmusic / Biography by Michael Sutton
British vocalists/multi-instrumentalists Kevin Godley and Lol Crème have one of the most eclectic resumés in rock & roll. Godley and Crème were session musicians when they joined 10cc in 1970. Originally called Hotlegs, 10cc were an art pop group that frequently appeared on the U.K. charts in the early '70s, eventually hitting number two in the U.S. with "I'm Not in Love." The two departed from 10cc a year later so they could experiment with the Gizmo, a gadget that enabled the guitar to create sounds with symphonic textures. The device, which they had invented, became the inspiration for Godley & Crème's 1977 debut triple-LP Consequences. A concept album about mankind battling a vengeful Mother Nature, Consequences was ripped to shreds and ridiculed by critics for its pretentiousness and excessive length. The bad press and poor sales generated by Consequences nearly destroyed the duo's career. However, in 1981, Godley & Crème landed on the British Top Ten with "Under My Thumb." But Godley & Crème achieved the most commercial success and critical acclaim in the '80s as video pioneers. The pair directed MTV clips for the Police, Duran Duran, and Frankie Goes to Hollywood that stretched the boundaries of music video and proved that the form was capable of producing art. In 1985, Godley & Crème had their only American smash with "Cry." Not surprisingly, it had an eye-popping video with groundbreaking special effects that showed people's faces morphing into one another. Godley & Crème were unable to climb the heights of "Cry" again and released Goodbye Blue Sky in 1988 before leaving music behind for video production. Crème joined the Art of Noise in the late '90s.

Allmusic / Review by Donald A. Guarisco
This album, the solo debut of former 10cc members Kevin Godley and Lol Creme, is generally considered to be one of the most notorious examples of '70s music-business excess. Consequences began its life as a single designed to show off the "gizmo," a musical device created by Godley & Creme that allowed an electric guitar to create symphonic-sounding textures when attached to its neck. Somewhere along the line, this single blew up into a triple-disc concept album about nature taking its revenge on mankind through hurricanes, floods, and the like. The first disc is almost entirely instrumental, using the "gizmo" to create all sorts of different textures as a hurricane dubbed "Honolulu Lulu" trashes Hawaii and heads for the United States. This stuff is a feat of clever engineering (there is a particularly funny part where an obnoxious rock band at an outdoor festival is swept away by a flood), but the musical content is lacking in hooks or melodies and thus fails to involve the listener. Consequences moves into its story line on the second disc, dividing its time between songs from Godley & Creme and spoken word comedy sketches written and performed by legendary British comedian Peter Cook that push the plot forward. The story focuses on a married couple working out the details of their divorce with their respective lawyers as the storms and earthquakes kick in. Their only hope is the downstairs neighbor, an eccentric composer named Blint who is working on a concerto that may be able to stop nature's revenge. The songs are mainly cutesy fluff: although they have clever arrangements and lush vocal harmonies, they lack the kind of memorable melodies that would bring the album's many concepts to life. The one song that stands apart from the dross is "Five O'Clock in the Morning," a clever and subtle portrait of suburban malaise that became a minor European hit. The comedy bits have some clever moments of wordplay, but weigh the album down because they go on too long and distract from the music. When the climactic "Blint's Tune" finally arrives, it is merely a meandering and overlong piano-led instrumental. Simply put, Consequences is a disaster: its humor is labored, its musical content is dull, and the mind-numbing length of the album proved that neither Godley nor Creme knew when to quit. The duo later proved they were capable of better and more focused satirical pop on albums like Freeze Frame, but they are lucky this creative train wreck didn't end their career before it could start.
