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.
