    I was very impressed, this is Jeff's finest work since the great Blow By Blow! Love Bones and the production is fantastic - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and make sure you turn up that volume knob!

    ["Pull It" is] the high point of Loud Hailer (an English colloquialism for megaphone), and its wordlessness is a plus; other songs decry war, apathy, greed, crass media, evil politicians, empty fame and other ills with less art than righteous heart.

    Beck thrills tot he max--and Loud Hailer hits career peaks of tough, funky belligerence. [Sep 2016, p.102]

    Beck has never made a record quite like this before, one that radiates knowledge and tempers cynicism with hope and hope with cynicism. Thank goodness we have it now and for all time.
