Melodies On Hiatus (CD)
Albert Hammond Jr.
Amoeba Review
Albert Hammond Jr's Melodies on Hiatus is eclectic, emotional, and energizing. The erstwhile Strokes guitarist consistently delivers on his solo material, and this time he offers up a mix of straight up rock club bops and gentle indie rock ballads. The tempo never lags over the course of this stellar nineteen-song collection, with driving rhythms, stirring melodies, and bittersweet romantic lyrics. Melodies showcases Hammond Jr's impressive ability to create choruses that stick with you, build an effortlessly cool rock 'n' roll atmosphere, and leave you feeling like you've just spent the last however-many-tracks dancing in a dirty basement bar to the best set you've ever heard in your life.
