"Throughout Simplicity, Tesla focus on simple, well-executed songs and unencumbered, stripped-down production, as emphasized by standouts like "So Divine...," "Other Than Me," and the ballad "Life Is a River." Their mix of hard rock, blues, and occasional heartland flourishes on this collection should please fans, showing that their heads are still in the right place".

"It's a challenging album - in it's subject matter at least: 'Ricochet', for example, tells the story of a band constantly doing just that, while 'Rise And Fall' comes with the challenge of "just when I think I've seen everything..." but at the same time questioning just how long an honest-to-goodness rawk band such as Tesla can keep coming back for more, while the impassioned 'Honestly' (which highlights the mellower middle section of this superbly paced opus) just about summarizes everything about this album, as Keith's laconic drawl tells the tale of "a simple man doin' the best I can": this is a simple rock 'n' roll band doing the best they can - and doing it bloody well!".
