Albert's solo stuff has been underrated I hope it's able to grow as big as Julian's solo work

[@Locuranocolectiva]

+scarylegend Man, what are you talking about? Albert's solo stuff is way better than the shit that fatty Casablancas is making nowadays

[@scarylegend]

+Jimm Espinoza I like both of their solo materials but I'm just saying that since Julian is the frontman for the strokes his solo work has always had more publicity unlike Alberts

[@scarylegend]

+Jimm Espinoza but there definitely seems to be more interest on Alberts new album so that's nice to see his work get recognized for how good it is!

[@Locuranocolectiva]

Oh, well, that's true

[@sixdin]

that drummer is a boss on the kit

[@quimica1786]

he ruin every song, he was playing to much. Especialy in everyone gets a star, that used to be a good song but i feel like there is not concise parts anymore on it because the drummer is always playing more than it should

[@jeff7764]

Why isn't his solo stuff more popular? It's phenomenal!

[@reed_stamov]

It is not. Music is great, but the vocals are bad and they destroy the music... He shouldn't sing. He is a great musician and songwriter (maybe), definetely great guitarist, but 100% not a singer, his voice is ugly...

[@jeff7764]

@@reed_stamov send me a link of you performing on KEXP gtfo of here🤡 everyone on KZbin is an expert

[@Jonathan-SZ]

Thank you

[@Miranda-ph5dt]

so glad to see albert doing so much, so well 🙇🏻

[@Zhark159632]

It's honestly unfair how much attention Julian's solo work gets but almost none of that goes to Albert, Nick, Nikolai, or Fabrizio when they've all produced solid stuff as well.

[@kroilito]

Because none of them are Mr. Cool

[@zuphie9680]

They're not as good though. Julian's 11th Dimensions even though very old, was so much better than any of the other members' solo albums

[@zaliareyes2733]

I wish I could see him in one of his shows! he's such a talented, humble and kind artist....

[@felixivan199]

Best kexp i've seen around, usually them interviews are awfully awkward but this one is pretty objective and chill, killer performance from Mr Hammond jr, great sounding band as well.

[@VividCollectiblesllc]

All of his band mates just match his style. A great combo and amazing calibration!

[@joshuajimenez3414]

Pure heart, talent and charisma! LOOL AT 5:16

[@elvislemus5696]

lol

[@aimlesstourist]

so freaking cute huhu

[@angelopissani8152]

What i really like is that all the songs speak albert, even spooky couch.

[@haku8542]

I'm so happy that they played Everyone Gets a Star :D

[@jdgonzo1982]

i love albert's solo stuff...so melodic and well written...but he's gone through a lot of band members!!! everytime i see a video he's playing with different dudes!! amazing songs though...really help with my depression!! thanks KEXP as always x

[@lkwalden7]

Never heard of this guy (or these guys) but I liked it! Got a pretty big Strokes vibe all around with the biggest difference being the vocals.

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

He's a member of The Strokes ;)

[@lkwalden7]

Oh shit, seriously?

[@matthewhartshorn4828]

hopefully he stays a member ):

[@edwardsanchez2930]

+username :( hopefully

[@lawnmowerpeek]

+Edward Sanchez Julian said at a recent concert that The Strokes were back in the studio recording...

[@hatfullahollow]

That drummer is on fire. They all are.

[@copheart]

Everyone Gets A Star is an incredible piece. Timeless.

[@tomstunes38]

this whole album is good.

[@theshuriken]

that yellow mustang looks so good

[@greenbody]

This guy mean so much to me. So much memories !!! #LOVEYAAHJ

[@BOBSAGET-sn8ex]

[@hayleybear15]

[@th3f1u]

HOLY SHIT! now I’ve got to see these guys!

[@jns9071]

Kexp is the best thing ever

[@joelomarrodriguezlepez3648]

podria escuchar esto todo el dia i could listen to this all day long

[@Jonathan-SZ]

18:03 best part "rise and shine" love that part

[@hsnzmx]

That is a good drummer!

[@tomvice]

Albert hammond jr. is genius. He's underrated, i feel he's the soul behind the strokes. Sorta like Carpenter makes Deftones work- and similarly they both had a "falling apart" where the star vocalist did their own thing but-it was never the same. Thom yorke is genius. But his stuff even though I enjoy the shit out of it- is not radiohead. Great bands, and OMFG sounds seem to happen when irreplaceable forces join together. The push and pull of vocal vs. guitarrist makes some incredible magic. Much love dude, you fucking rock ALBERT. make some cool shit with julian again, do drugs again lol

[@Vicksage16]

steamorfry I get the sentiment and all, but don’t encourage a former addict to go back to drugs, man.

[@Manofry]

How the hell did they NOT play Drunched In Crumbs?!

[@juanpablouribe252]

¡Congratulations! and welcome to México!!

[@Miutband]

Sidebooooom !! We are waiting you here albert to play with us!! Cheers

[@judsonkolk]

[@ryu_endoo]

[@TheRedPears]

Hey! We're a three piece band from El Monte,CA called The Red Pears. Albert Hammond Jr.'s music is a big influence of ours as well as The Strokes. We would really appreciate it if you guys could take the time to check our stuff out. Thanks!

[@jonhattanrai]

LOL using the headphones the wrong way

[@RSanchez111]

Spooky Couch sounds a lot like Karma Police by Radiohead

[@gl8466]

Last song is similar sound to Pavement.

[@yoshiiixD95]

Kexp is taking some advice from nardwuar hahah nice

[@niezyje8922]

[@glockteau______twins]

[@Mistaeastwood]

That's not fab or nick or where is everyone

[@minihulk10]

why does he hit his guitar like that at 1:47?

[@asrai1024]

what

[@thecitytransitband]

It's to get audio feedback

[@alexfields8785]

Oh he's got a blind guy on drums.. how progressive of him

[@sonicmaha2618]

Its simillar to the stroke but its better than the stroke ahhh fuck my mind its albert hammond!!

[@Bevity]

[@eduardomonkeysCx]

[@timbulb]

The host has no friends, otherwise they would have popped that monster beside his nose.

[@vbucla09]

4 ppl have no soul

[@fakesdeath]

Albert's vocals in Sideboob remind me of Stu from King Gizzard &a The Lizard Wizard

[@fartknocker132]

Your solo work sucks Albert! Leave the songwriting and singing to Julian.

[@trevonwilliam9385]

Fart Knocker lol nah

[@fartknocker132]

yah

[@masonherrera6560]

Fart Knocker his voice has gotten a little bad in the last couple of years but it’s still really good and the songwriting is also fucking awesome
