MagnetAn instant power-pop classic. [#67, p.84]

UncutImpossible not to love. [Apr 2005, p.110]
-
Under The RadarThe songs all sound cleaner and tighter than those off the critically praised Lapalco, but instead of over-produced banality you're left with pure pop perfection. [#9]
-
There's an amiable simplicity to Benson's songs that translates to likeability.
-
Doesn’t sport as many memorable tunes as 2002’s Lapalco.
-
His melodic gifts remain undeniable on this charming third album.
-
What he doesn’t have, but desperately needs, is a little of bit of grit.
