"Black Rebel Motorcycle Club is very good at making records that sound like classic rock without directly ripping off that genre’s ancestors. On Beat the Devil’s Tattoo, BRMC evokes a diverse spread of forebears - Rev. Gary Davis, the Stooges, Led Zep, and Beatles - yet the band doesn’t lean straight into any prevailing wind, instead whipping up its own chaotic storms that blend analog influences into songs that make perfect sense in the digital age." - The Boston Globe
"With an overall sound that seems inspired by a searing mix of old-timey blues mixed with a hypodermic blast of melodic noise, there is a driving, wild-eyed intensity to many of the tracks on Beat the Devil's Tattoo." 4 stars - All Music Gide
"Beat the Devil’s Tattoo perpetuates (BRMC's) signature Gothic, balls-to-the-wall-guitar drone... marrying grainy guitar fuzz with Howl-esque Americana romp and stomp." 85/100 - Filter
"Beat the Devil’s Tattoo... the ideal soundtrack for a fleet of lonely, grizzled bikers lost on a desert highway: slow-rolling and hardened, simultaneously seething, brooding, and wistful, and armed with the pride of vagrancy." 4 stars - Slant
"If there were ever a reason for Black Rebel Motorcycle Club's existence, this would be it... Beat The Devil's Tattoo can hold its head high as their most compulsive body of work to date." 8/10 - Drowned In Sound
"Jeffertitti's Nile... a psychedelic train ride... A must see." - LA Record Review
"As a vocalist, Chandler has an amazing combination of innate talent, joy and heart and soul that comes across easily and spontaneously." - Eugene Weekly
"Garboski quickly developed a reputation, among fellow musicians especially, as one of Tucson's best live bands. All veterans of numerous Tucson bands (Beau Bowen: Maintenance, Lloyd Dobler; Garth Bryson: Ladies and Gentlemen, Maintenance; Josh Skibar: Is To Feel, Fun With Dirt, The Bled) they fell together naturally, creating an energetic sound that gives each instrument equal footing... bombastic rock music, full of starts and stops, soaring melodies and rapturous, frenzied instrumenal passages. Garboski sometimes recalls the Seattle explosion circa 1991, but leans more post-rock than punk." - Catfish Vegas
"The Provocative Whites know how to channel their rock influences into songs that sound like fresh versions of the things we loved about '90s-era indie rock - pop choruses, guitars used for every sound imaginable, moments of limb-shaking exuberance and plenty of screaming," - Tucson Weekly
"For fans of the Pixies, Weezer, Nirvana, Led Zeppelin and domestic beer. The Provocative Whites may not be the biggest self-promoting, egotistical band in town; they just play damn good rock and roll and feature two of the best guitarists around." - Tucson Scene
"As a vocalist, Chandler has an amazing combination of innate talent, joy and heart and soul that comes across easily and spontaneously." - Eugene Weekly
