Released concurrently with the announcement of the band's dissolution, the Wonder Stuff's fourth and final album is by far their weakest effort. Largely dropping the playful folk-rock feel of 1991's excellent Never Loved Elvis (multi-instrumentalist Martin Bell tends to be pushed into the background) in favor of a lackluster return to the kind of speedy guitar pop that introduced the group on 1988's The Eight-Legged Groove Machine -- without that album's youthful energy -- Construction for the Modern Idiot feels like the group is treading over already-plowed ground. The real change is in singer/songwriter Miles Hunt's lyrics, which have gone from clever and sassy to painfully obvious. Though it's easy to sympathize with the anti-pedophilia sentiment of "I Wish Them All Dead," it's a pretty trite and annoying song, and "Your Big-Assed Mother" and the Charles Bukowski tribute "A Great Drinker" are just lame. Breaking up was clearly the right thing to do.

Chronique
Released concurrently with the announcement of the band's dissolution, the Wonder Stuff's fourth and final album is by far their weakest effort. Largely dropping the playful folk-rock feel of 1991's excellent Never Loved Elvis (multi-instrumentalist Martin Bell tends to be pushed into the background) in favor of a lackluster return to the kind of speedy guitar pop that introduced the group on 1988's The Eight-Legged Groove Machine -- without that album's youthful energy -- Construction for the Modern Idiot feels like the group is treading over already-plowed ground. The real change is in singer/songwriter Miles Hunt's lyrics, which have gone from clever and sassy to painfully obvious. Though it's easy to sympathize with the anti-pedophilia sentiment of "I Wish Them All Dead," it's a pretty trite and annoying song, and "Your Big-Assed Mother" and the Charles Bukowski tribute "A Great Drinker" are just lame. Breaking up was clearly the right thing to do.
