The record combines energetic guitar riffs, driving rhythms, melodic hooks and Hunt's
distinctive vocal delivery. Its sound draws on punk's directness and the tunefulness of
alternative pop, creating a lively collection of concise, often irreverent songs. Tracks
such as "Unbearable", "Give Give Give Me More More More", "A Wish Away" and "It's
Yer Money I'm After, Baby" were released as singles, helping to introduce the band to a
wider audience.
Other songs, including "Red Berry Joy Town", "Grin" and "Ruby Horse", demonstrate the
group's knack for combining infectious melodies with sharp- edged guitars and an
energetic performance style. The album reached number 18 on the UK Albums Chart
and was later certified silver in Britain.
The Eight Legged Groove Machine established the musical identity that The Wonder
Stuff would develop on subsequent releases, notably their 1989 follow-up, Hup.
