“Hall’s book is engaging, stimulating and generative. … Hall provides readers with enough critical-musicking instruments to equip themselves as destructive musicians—or better, ‘destructive musickers’—in their own right. … Musical Revolutions is a compelling and well-crafted provocation for future scholars to ‘Bring the Noise.’” (Martin Law, Marx and Philosophy, marxandphilosophy.org.uk, April, 2016)
"In four steps, spanning two centuries of German thought, Hall unlocks a fascinating genealogy of musicking, that broad spectrum of sonic phenomena ranging from listening to natural sounds and composing music to performing noise. Focused on sound's power to engender critical self-reflection, Hall masterfully links the Frankfurt School with its romantic predecessors and post-punk disciples, revealing musicking's historical situatedness, its incorporation of past discourses, and its anticipation of future practices now so ubiquitous in our digital present." - Richard Langston, Associate Professor of German Literature, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA
