By	F. Marthiniussen "Fredrik Marthiniussen" (T�nsberg, Norway) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you don't have Magnet's first two albums "The Tourniquet" and "On Your Side" I suggest you buy these first. Don't get me wrong, this is a great album, a must have for Magnet fans - but I feel the first two albums are more representative of Magnet's music.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as the last release (On Your Side), January 1, 2008

By	Douglas M. Stevens "Doug Stevens" (Oxford, Ohio) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

His voice is still as good but the album is nowhere near as engaging as his earlier release "On Your Side." I would not purchase this one again if I had the choice. I'm going to have to look and see what the difference were in terms of the production crew because I can't find any other way to account for the lackluster feel of this CD.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bliss, December 7, 2007

By	S. ODonnell "LISTEN UP!!!" (West Chester, PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If by "simple" used in the album's title means less here, than once again, less is more with Evan's Magnet. This guy, one of Norway's music gems, is quite simply a musical genius. Evan's voice is angelic, quite polished, and deeply soothing. What you'll find here in Simple Life, just like Magnet's other albums, is his brilliant mixing of indie folk, beats, rasta jams, horns and strings. It works, and it will hook you. Magnet does this mix, like no other, again here perfectly in Simple Life-just like we've come to love and expect from him time and again. Get this album pronto, like any of his others, you won't be disappointed.
