The Skinny
There’s not a single track on European Heartbreak that isn’t a beautifully composed, shining picture postcard of emotion

Mojo
European Heartbreak feels wonderfully whole, bound together by De Graaf's sweetly inscrutable voice and the unshowy, languid complexity of her songs. Print edition only

Uncut
Her faintly punch-drunk voice sometimes sounds just a kilojoule of energy (or lack thereof) from uninterested, but just as often she's as winsomely weary as she is vulnerable, and the impeccably stylish decoration seals our seduction. Print edition only

For anyone from other states of the European Union dreading the uncertainties of life post-March 2019, this album could at least be a security blanket

No Ripcord
European Heartbreak is charming, clever and quietly confident. If the world really is about to fall apart, then Amber Arcades has produced something that is more than a worthwhile distraction

God Is In The TV
The sophisticated and breeziness of the blues-piano-brass-folk sound reminiscent of Natalie Prass, Weyes Blood and the honky-tonk moments of Foxyen, the wanderlust music videos, the touristy album cover and the adventure-seeking lyrics make the record sound like a nice long road journey

It mainly goes to show that she makes for a better melancholy dream pop artist than a singer/songwriter with her toes dipped in Americana and soft soul

Under The Radar
Ultimately the uninspired songwriting renders European Heartbreak incapable of being a worthwhile investment of your listening time
