Review

Spin (p.94) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[A]n appealingly low-key solo debut....Top-shelf indie-pop tunes."
Entertainment Weekly (p.106) - "[A] mellow debut, with its sweetly yearning melodies and modest arrangements that often recall Guided by Voices." -- Grade: B+
Alternative Press (p.152) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- He kicks off the first Strokes solo effort with a melancholy, space-age lullaby and channels the Beatles' early stabs at Dylan on the unplugged 'Blue Skies.'"
Magnet (p.99) - "Studded with bells and vocal echoes, folky torch song 'Blue Skies' is startlingly intimate and gentle....YOURS TO KEEP is a delightful surprise."

Product note

Stretching his legs outside the day job, Strokes guitarist Albert Hammond, Jr., has put together an impressive set of songs that aim for a slightly more rarified plane than his usual fare. Although he adopts the affectless vocals of a non-singer, he takes his guitar on some cool excursions. Highlights include "Bright Young Thing," which has an unrestrained and swoon-inducing sweep, and "Holiday," featuring textured guitar sounds and gauzy, filtered vocals that transport and uplift.

Album Description

'Yours To Keep' is the debut solo album from Strokes guitarist Albert Hammond Jr. Whilst there are obvious comparisons to his day job in The Strokes, there is more than enough melodic alt-pop here to interest fans of artists such as Elliot Smith and Ben Folds as well as your average NME-reading indie kid. Includes the single '101'.
