Dec 7, 2015To describe it as the best Strokes-related work since 2003’s Room On Fire might be damning it with faint praise: better to say simply that this is one of the year’s most easily-overlooked gems.
-
Jul 31, 2015Some of the most accessible and personal music of Hammond, Jr.'s career with or without the Strokes.
-
Jul 28, 2015Spry and spontaneous sounding. [Sep 2015, p.87]
-
Jul 31, 2015It's difficult not to be beguiled by Momentary Masters and impressed at its rich colours and ease of flow--the sound of a man carving out his own niche both musically and personally after several previous stumbling starts.
-
Jul 29, 2015For an album reportedly inspired by Carl Sagan, the 10-song, 36-minute Momentary Masters is remarkably lean and focused.
-
Aug 17, 2015Despite the pristine production and supercharged atmosphere, this feels like his most personal set and where the music falls into more predictable territory, it's kept buoyant by Hammond's emotional warmth and his wistful, contemplative lyrics.
-
Jul 29, 2015Albert Hammond Jr. has a solid album on his hands, but it is what it is: Momentary Masters isn’t veal, but a damn fine cheeseburger.
-
UncutJul 28, 2015An instantly likable, energetic pop set stacked with guitars; his easy voice shot through with enquiry and regret. [Sep 2015, p.75]
-
Jul 24, 2015Momentary Masters is his most satisfying, cohesive record yet, and, in many ways, his most personal.
-
Jul 31, 2015Healthy living and hearty curiosity have inspired some lively rock songs, but being Albert Hammond Jr. still sounds pretty stressful.
