    Emotion & Commotion embraces tunes so big you'd think no more could be wrung into them. [May 2010, p. 93]

    Imagine Phil Mickelson in a round of putt-putt and you'll get a sense of what's on the line for Beck's first studio album in seven years.
  3. Entertainment Weekly

    The guitar legend ticks that box [soporific Muzak] here with laid back instrumental versions of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and "Nessun Dorma" that recreates the excitement of an elevator ride. [14 Apr 2010, p.73]

    Yes, Beck was always unpredictable, but this is one weirdly unfocused album. [May 2010, p.83]

    His first studio album in sedven years is an indigestible hotchpotch containing everything from heavier-than-thou riffing to ill-judged tilt at Puccini's Nessun Dorma. [May 2010, p.126]
