Following 1985's King of America, Elvis Costello temporarily reunited with the Attractions and producer Nick Lowe for one last album before their final split. It's quite a farewell: Blood and Chocolate may stand as the hardest rocking and most lyrically vituperative album in Costello's oeuvre, even more so than early scorchers like This Years Model. Even the ballads, like the stark, ominous I Want You and the dizzying Poor Napoleon, fairly seethe with venomous malice, and rockers like the throbbing opener Uncomplicated and the simply brutal kiss-off I Hope You're Happy Now are Costello at his most savage.
