Having spent nearly fifteen years at war with all that is dull and insensitive, Morrissey has become a unique figure in pop music-- looming, eccentric, and, to his religiously loyal fans, infallible. On MALADJUSTED, he chooses to focus his venom on the usual brutes and perverts, as well as presenting vignettes of lives you probably wouldn`t find in other people`s pop songs ("We`ve never see a keener/window cleaner"). There`s a particularly vitriolic take on his unsuccessful litigation with Smiths rhythm section Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce in "Sorrow Will Come In The End," which is simply spoken over a tense, dramatic string section-- and you thought he sounded miffed when he sang! As for the requisite self-loathing, in "Trouble Loves Me," he implores, "Please fulfill me/Otherwise kill me."
Production is handled imaginatively but unobtrusively by Steve Lillywhite (U2, The Pogues, Psychedelic Furs) with a tasteful smattering of effects and samples. Arrangements, ranging from simple, modern rock to lush string orchestrations, always leave plenty of room for the ever-fascinating, clever, intense craftsmanship of pop`s most entertaining depressive.
