Albert Hammond Jr – 'Como Te Lama' review

Published on

Albert Hammond’s second solo album confirms the suspicion raised on his first that he’s not breaking free of his day job with The Strokes out of a burning desire to broaden his musical palette. About half of ¿Cómo Te Llama? could have come fully formed from his parent band’s stable and is perfectly enjoyable, if a little cannibalistic, but the rest is a couple of spliffs worse for wear – sleepier, more drawn out and quite hit and miss. GFC is a lovely half-lullaby, but there are plenty of forgettable moments here too.
