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.
