Albert Hammond Jr - Set To Attack (Official Video)

[@radekkonecko2400]

You can take Albert out of The Strokes but you can't take The Strokes out of Albert

[@gossqjenkins6657]

@Panda Bassist but Julian wrote all the music for the first two albums so he was more than "just the vocalist." So technically the signature sound most people recognize from The Strokes is Julian's sound. But still I'm not denying that all members of The Strokes are talented and have great solo work or other bands. I'm just saying that Julian did a lot with the writing and producing of the sound as a whole and not just the vocals so he had influence on Albert and all members of the band

[@jorgesempere8960]

Panda Bassist Don't talk if you don't know anything, Julian is not "just a singer", he has been as important to the band as Albert, he has done the most of the structures of the songs from the first album and has made all the lyrics too.

[@akwilson1676]

And Albert even uses the same mic effect as Julian, so that's why this sounds so much like The Strokes.

[@TheJamiro365]

@Tommy Valley Julian wrote all the parts in the first 3 albums, guitars, bass and drums.....

[@pb12661]

@Tommy Valley are you serious? Yes, AHJ is a very important piece of the puzzle but JC is the "genius"/driving force behind The Strokes' music. The other members of the band have said it, their music producer(s) has said it, etc. JC is the leader and wrote most of the classic Strokes songs. Also, never underestimate a vocalist. They are just as much of a musician as anyone. Their VOICE is their instrument.

[@shadygroves8252]

Albert has so much good solo material He’s really consistent

[@joeking433]

It runs in the family.

[@chichiori7265]

I think this song is a masterpiece and no one can tell me otherwise

[@sepeavie7824]

I agree wholeheartedly...

C mon guys he plays in the strokes he is a founder he have been playing since the band started

[@joeking433]

Another phenomenally underrated song by Albert. Albert is one guy that I think solo is as good as the Strokes. In fact, his solo stuff is like the best stuff of the Strokes.

[@jarrod4115]

"phenomenally underrated song" this is his most streamed song on spotify right now lols

[@jacob_massengale]

I think Julian's stuff is better than the strokes. people don't like it cuz its weird and experimental, but I think Julian grew as an artist.

[@joeking433]

@@jacob_massengale I really like Julian's solo stuff, too! He seems like such a real person and doesn't seem to put on airs which is refreshing.

[@logan4x6]

I haven’t seen a more “Indie” video than this. So many cliches, but we’re all suckers for this kind of stuff.

Not really. If im brtually honest. This video sucks ass. Love the song though.

Oh yes! Almost identical! His father used to finish most of the verses with those vocal tones.

No tiene el reconocimiento que merece, espectáculo de canción ❤

[@charlesstephenson875]

Awesome song and video. AHJ is a true musician, not just a rock star. He is so talented and creative. Love him with the Strokes and without. One of my favorite musicians. Never disappoints.

[@javi8799]

I just listened to this and quickly thought that the artist got influence of the strokes. I just searched it on wikipedia and then I realized that he is compositor and guitarrist of the band lol. Btw, he did a great job on this album, I love many songs of it.

[@joeking433]

I think that Albert must be writing my favorite songs for the Strokes because this song would be one of my favorites if it were done by the Strokes. I'd like to know which songs Albert wrote for the Strokes.

[@Aliyan-o1n]

I was gonna type "why does this song sounds like the strokes" than I saw the pic of the artist and somehow wasn't surprised that the guy with the coolest hair cut in the entire band made this. Good shit 👍

[@marcusvinicius8566]

It's sounds a little bit with Strokes and The Beatles mixed !! Amazing

[@SuperHenso]

Pues claro, Albert Hammond Jr. es la mejor mitad de The Strokes.

[@geyza0711]

spot on actually

[@RonanLyleMusic]

vocal harmonies actually really do sound like the beatles, and the way he sings is very Lennon-like

[@Niilism_]

Marcus Rodrigues hahahahahahahahahahajajajjajajahahhahahau true

[@eiremike1]

That band is called Guided By Voices :-) Ive read that the Strokes considered GBV their biggest influence

[@nihilisticboi49]

Bittersweet melancholy of memories that never even happened

[@ProfessorWoland_]

Boi

[@jerometenorio7221]

The main reason why this sounded like the strokes is because the drumming. Second is the effect on Albert's mic. The riffs are very AHJ.

[@_KingOfCalifornia]

Jerome Tenorio Albert learned guitar with Julian. They both lived in the same apartment and took lessons from the same teacher. Thats why Albert's music sounds a lot like the strokes

[@moonythegemini4817]

I ran into them filming this in real time, holy cow!! Long time fan of the strokes and my pals decided to catch a sunset at bong hill one day in 2017-2018. When we parked a really tall white van had already been there and when we got to the top a group was up there already enjoying themselves so we went to the bonfire site and one of them came up and apologized if they were bothering us (they so were not but it was kind to say something) and I asked about what they were shooting! The woman said it was a music video for Albert Hammond Jr and I had no idea what ended up happening to the video after that. It was this?? Love the result. Wish I would’ve said more in that moment!

[@maevedraiocht3493]

aww! i love this story! that was probably my friends and i

Man. I'm a massive strokes fan. And a complete follower of Casablancas. But I CANNOT get this song out of my head! I've been playing it and others who I've played it around (who care little for rock) are humming it too. Crazy. I've been too dismissive of AHJr. Time to binge.

[@zehrasufian]

i am starting to think that Julian wasnt the only writer in the strokes from the very beginning. this has strokesy sound to it, in a good way. coming from someone who loves everyone of the strokes equally. all the best albert!

[@normangarcia1212]

I wonder how good he is on guitar (solos) he has good riffs but I wouldn’t mind hearing him tear it up at a jam session

In The Strokes he make some solos, actually he likes me more than the principal guitarist, but the 2 are wonderful.

His solo on vision of division is epic, also, he plays the iconic last nite solo

[@matheusleber5165]

Steven Cross Yes!! And it seems to me that Momentary masters and Francis trouble are more indie rock with a louder guitar. Yours to keep and Como te llama seems more quiet in a very good way
