Reviews4 Stars Out of 5 -- "My Maudlin Career Sighs and Swells with a Shimmering, Understated Beauty...", "The album feels as if it could have been released any time in the last 50-odd years, but the inspired arrangements -- and, of course, Campbell's indelible voice -- make it sound fresh, too.", "The group's fourth album overflows with the signature mix of sticky-sweet lyrics backed by grandiose pop arrangements.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Strings and hearts swoon, handclaps and snares pop, and bells and chimes ring out. It might sound formulaic, if it weren't so gorgeous.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "Singer Tracyanne Campbell's voice retains its alluring coquettishness on pretty much all of MMC...", "'French Navy' carries plenty of tinny charisma, bolstered by a brass band and the wholesome clarity of Camera Obscura's unfailing musical consistency.", "Blissed-out orchestral indie pop, enlivened with classic Motownisms and overflowing with silvery tones...", "On their fourth album, this Scottish indie-pop band's fondness for woeful heartache and Phil Spector-esque production reaches a poignant peak."
