4.0 out of 5 stars Another great Aussie band, October 25, 2006

While not as good as Jet, another great Aussie band in the same mould. Fans of Jet should look into this band. This is my favourite motor ace albums and best songs on here are Oppurtunity, Keeping secrets, Shoot this, When the feelings gone and of course Carry on, their most famous song. The album sounds good, but they sound much better live. Unfortunately the album doesn't flow from beginning to end, I like to pick out the best songs from all 3 albums and make an album out of that.

Five star laundry is one of my favourite albums of all time and its great that the guys are back with a new record. A little different from the FSL sound but brilliant nonetheless. Well done!

4.0 out of 5 stars SHOOT THIS!!!!, November 18, 2003

MA are back again with their second album, "Shoot This", named after track seven. It was their song "Carry On" (1st song on the album) that brought MA to my attention...
Carry On - a change in sound production with orchestral instruments. Has a subtle oriental vibe.
Opportunity - typical MA song. A great song live but doesn't stand out when played back to back with "Carry On" and "Pieces".
Pieces - rock ballad, beautifully sung and played by the guys.
Feathers - by far my fave song on "Shoot This"...love the word-imagery.
Keeping Secrets - another strong song produced by the guys with catchy chorus.
Ride the Wave - Didn't like this song at first. But after MA played this one a few times live, it grew on me.
Shoot This - atypical of MA style. Doesn't sit well with them.
For Yourself -
Where did you go? - dunno why but when I hear this song, I always think it's the last one on the album.
When the day falls -
When the feeling's gone -
"Shoot this" has several noteable songs, but fails to deliver as an album overall, beginning with much promise and ending...well...it sort of pitter-patters out.

Final verdict: good...but not as good as "Five Star Laundry".
