Cartoon Music For Superheroes

Have you heard of Albert Hammond, Jr?
He's the guitar player for The Strokes, and he has a solo album out called "Yours To Keep."
It's amazing.
It sounds a lot like The Strokes early stuff (see "Is This It?") mixed with indie and folk influences. His voice is amazing, and his rock-guitar skills lend themselves very well to folk-ish indie music. I took the CD off Mary's iPod (the new video Nano - I'm green with envy) and listened to it today. Killer. Not The Killers; just killer.
Check it. Check it hard.
