Reviews3 stars out of 5 -- "With a handful of inventive standouts like 'The Book of You,' where B&S shape electronic music around their strengths....Stick it out to the last few tracks and you'll hear the band's familiar marvels in a bright new light.", "Murdoch's acute storytelling eye remains laser-focused, especially on the wry ''Perfect Couples.'" -- Grade:' A-, "With the ebullient pop swing of ‘Nobody’s Empire’ and mournful strings of ‘The Cat With The Cream’ up with their finest work.", "True to the title, this is the band’s danciest record ever....The good dance songs on here sound equally as at home on a Belle & Sebastian record as they would in a particularly refined club.", "As always, Murdoch's writing is pristine -- learned but unpretentious; complex but not unfocused; revealing but not diary-entry juvenile.", "Belle & Sebastian deliver their most textured, eclectic collection yet. 'The Party Line' is Franz Ferdinand's dance-punk hit 'Take Me Out' with synths and added anxiety.", "It’s the sound of a group rejuvenated, as intimate and heartfelt as ever, with all the old reference points intact, but giddily embracing a kind of bastardized Euro-disco more often practiced by the likes of Saint Etienne and the Pet Shop Boys."
