With his first solo album, front man of the critically acclaimed Libido, Even Johansen has put together a collection very "Quiet & Still" tracks. Even "Magnet" Johansen has a voice not unlike that of Richard Ashcroft and talent to spare. On the title track Even could almost pass for Thom Yorke with a wispier voice. What I am getting at is that Even fits right into the current reign of gentle Brit Pop that has been gracing our shores. With tracks such as "Beautiful Day" (not the U2 track) possibly getting airplay in North America once cannot deny that Even will attain at least the status of fellow Brits Coldplay or Travis. One thing worth mentioning here is that Johansen recorded this album entirely on his own including all instruments, engineering and producing. Even is a talented individual that just needs to hit a few radio stations in order to hit the big time.
