Life Was Better was the second EP release by Australian rock band Magic Dirt. It was released in November 1994 on the Melbourne independent label Au Go Go Records. This was the band's first recording after regrouping in the wake of a split in April 1994, brought about by singer/guitarist Adalita Srsen and bass player Dean Turner ending their relationship.

Both "Ice" and an edited version of "Amoxycillin" (the EP version includes ten minutes of feedback) found significant radio support, pushing the EP to #1 on the Australian independent records chart. "Life Was Better" remained on the chart for 75 weeks, eventually selling over 20,000 copies,[1] equivalent to gold record status.
