Albert Hammond Jr. Rude Customer & Show # 477



Albert Hammond Jr. is perhaps best known as the guitarist in The Strokes, but he has also released several solo albums.  In 2006 he released his debut solo album Yours To Keep, in 2008 ¿Cómo Te Llama? was released. Recently it was announced that Albert would release a five song EP to be titled AHJ. The EP is set to be released on Cult Records, the label of fellow Strokes bandmate Julian Casablancas in October of 2013. The first song released online from the EP was "Rude Customer."  This track has the vibe of songs found on Yours To Keep, music by The Strokes, but also draws influence from Guided By Voices. It is seen as a come back or return to form by Hammond, who has recently come clean about his four years of sobriety. The above video is for the song "In Transit," a song found on 2006's Yours To Keep. This Video is taken from FaceCulture.
