Description

As their audience matures, A1's third album Make It Good sees the band adopt a more grown-up musical style and image. The teen tunes of old have been replaced by 14 Ronan Keating-style adult-orientated pop compositions. Like the standard Ronan long-player there's an equal mix of slow slushy numbers and lively rock/pop tunes. "Here Comes the Rain" and "One Last Song" are both melodramatic ballads that securely fall into the first of these two styles. With falsetto vocals similar to Darren Hayes's, and first-rate catchy choruses, two tracks "Cherish" and "Do You Remember" pay homage to Savage Gardenmore… (a good business move if you're trying to break into non-European territories). The "Suicide Blonde" sound-a-like track "Isn't It Cheap" quotes other Aussie rockers INXS. Co-written by Christian, Paul, Mark and Ben, the four guys who make up A1, the album is unfortunately tarnished by excessive production. Despite being their best album to date, their apparent quest for audio perfection has resulted in an, at times, sterile sounding release. --John Galilee
