Music Review Como Te Llama by Albert Hammond, Jr.
“Albert Hammond, Jr. is an artist indie pop / rock band from Los Angeles, California. He plays the guitar and his favorite instruments are the Fender Stratocaster and Gibson Les Paul. He is also guitarist for rock band indie, The Strokes. When he was with The Strokes, he often plays rhythm guitar. As he ventured into his solo side project, he still plays the similar musical soundscape as The Strokes, a bit of garage and indie pop rock.
Como Te Llama opens with a very guitar oriented “Bargain of a Century”. The second start bit, I can hear the bass as if it works on an open field. Once the music catches on, you can hear the banjo start playing. When Albert Hammond, Jr. takes the stage, he sings with a voice less energy. The guitar has a very good job in helping this title. Well, it’s how Hammod Albert, Jr. sings the law? Very similar to the style of Julian Casablancas.
“In My Room” is a track more lively. The guitar shows an early sense rocking. Albert Hammond, Jr. will sing and the guitar follows, complement each other. From there, the pace of the music also shows some similarities with the music of The Strokes. When the chorus comes, Albert said: “I miss you already …” The second verse of In My Room has a more lively and energetic, and then the whole track just follow through. The ending 30 seconds, you can also hear the sounds of the organ with the jamming sounds of guitars. A great way to finish!
“Lisa” has a beginning balance where you can listen to music that complements the seconds pass. It starts with drums, then followed by a groovy bass line, is the guitar that sounds like he plays in a loop that overlap. A few seconds after Albert Hammond, Jr. came to the verse, the piano arrived with his four-note goes very well with Lisa. It’s very nice to hear the piano continues to do throughout the track. Lisa has her moments where the guitars and a piano sound very catchy. During the break between violin and so Lisa transforms a catchy song to an emotional music. I would say that this title is as you eat slowly … Very nice and cute here!
“GfC” sounds very cute at first with the guitar work of the mark by Albert Hammond Jr. And when the chorus arrives, I like the bass what happens in the background as Albert is still singing. Verse of GFC built the tempo and rhythm, and shows that Albert cries and screams in the chorus. After the second chorus, the guitar solo can be heard before GfC ends the same way as it opens. It’s really good!
“The Boss Americana” starts with heavy guitar work and slow before Albert Hammond, Jr. comes in verse. This song is a kind of high compared to the previous four songs. The guitar riff in the verse has some elements of the 90s in which she reminds me of songs rock 90s. The chorus, however, is milder when Albert goes, I do not know if I will not ask you to stay, you let go, and I’m going your way …. “The guitar in the background really looks like those of The Strokes, you accidentally think this track is produced by The Strokes, if you have not looked at the artist behind this track.
The first few seconds of “Rocket” will make you think that this will be an explosive track. When the battery-March as enter, Albert Hammond, Jr. will just repeat: “Oh my rocket …” At times throughout this track, you can hear a few screams here and there. Before the second stanza guitar pluckings that come in is really good. It stands for rhythm and music. This song is kind of draggy, slow, slow as a rock.
“Victory at Monterey” has a groovy bass line accompanied by some space-like sound. When comes the chorus, guitar and bass work as the bread and butter. It just gives the impression that the victory Monterey moves into another gear and at a different speed. The bass in this track is sexy and after a while, you might think you’re listening to dance / electronic trail in a club. It makes you want to get up and dance. Victory at Monterey is a track that the judge not to be missed, Albert Hammond, Jr. has just hit you with this piece of music. Would I have more of this …: – )
“You will not be fooled by this” is a title that has clean guitar riffs. The song of Albert Hammond, Jr. is often than not drowned by the sound of the guitar. The guitar is very echogenic consistent from start to finish. Only in the chorus, where Albert is a repetitive mode, “You will not be fooled by this …”, the music changes slightly when playing the guitar in another note that sounds much lighter. Violin also creates a special appearance in the second chorus and the last 30 seconds, the band screaming is really something that stands out in you not be fooled by this. Love the end!
“Spooky Couch” is a more than seven minutes long instrumental track. He has a dream sound that make you think that if you’re in a dream world. The guitar comes with this title on and off the trail crosses. Spooky Couch does not resemble what the title suggests, to me, is simply magnificent.
Sean Lennon is a guest featured on this track where he plays the piano. Together, they Spooky Couch one of the most beautiful tracks on the album. The remaining minutes will blow you just 1:30 then be actually delivered with Spooky Couch. A Surprise from Albert Hammond, Jr. gently beautiful!
“Borrowed Time” is a reggae-ish song, bringing you the atmosphere and the feeling of the beautiful island of Hawaii. The keyboards in this track just work closely with the guitar, creating a unique sound between them. When comes the chorus, the track just turn the tempo and Albert Hammond, Jr. just screams and moans. Not much singing, Borrowed Time is just another fine track.
“G Up” goes with the work of guitar that looks like The Strokes. Even the way Albert Hammond, Jr. sings constantly remind me of The Strokes. The guitar in this track does not stop and rest, he continues to play a very consistent way. I pay more attention to the music and the rhythm of the track rather than the song of Albert. If you listen closely, the guitar on this track sounds like a fast version of the reggae guitar. Fierce still soft.
“Miss Myrtle” has really good guitar sound. It allows you to cool the music itself. As Albert Hammond, Jr. sings, the guitar just helps Albert with the repetitive strum of the guitar. The process of it is really good. As the chorus, the whole track just gets louder and the guitar riff you first hear just at the beginning and follows the back edge of Albert. It’s simple but really good. A happy trail for those who want to brighten their day.
“Feed Me Jack Or: How I learned not to worry and love of Peter Sellers” is the last track Como Te Llama. Albert Hammond, Jr. Decided to have a stroll near the album. This song starts with piano and was joined by Albert’s violin sings. Maybe the way we see Albert sings with his heart and passion. As he approaches the end, Albert cries the music plays on and fades. Just another way to end the night.
