Albert Hammond Jr’s fourth solo album Francis Trouble explores a deeply personal topic – the stillborn death of his twin brother, Francis, and the lingering effects that event has had in his life and music.
In November of 1979, Hammond Jr’s mother, Claudia, miscarried. Although they rushed to the hospital, Claudia and Albert Hammond Sr. were told that the baby was far too premature to live. Albert continued to grow inside of his mother undetected until she was nearly six months pregnant.

Lyrics:
So you're freaking me out
You hide your looks in your skull
I'm catching muted beatings in my lungs
You act like you're in my head
You sit me up in the back
I wanna know your lips upon my tongue
Don't like the rules that you like
I'm not a winner in your ring
Out loud a voice in the night
I do it like I'm Charlemagne

Like a heartbeat under your shirt
Like a hard reach into the dirt
But I can't breathe under your skirt
Now I'm waiting on something you said
Like a waitress too good to forget
Like the words sung over cassette

Do-do-do-do
I don't care

Words come out of your mouth
They hit me hard like a brick
I know I know I know I know
I know you like me possessed
But lately I've been a mess
You got me thinking 
Are we closer than before
Don't like the rules that you like
I'm not a winner in your ring
Out loud a voice in the night
I do it like I'm Charlemagne

Like a heartbeat under your shirt
Like a hard reach into the dirt
But I can't breathe under your skirt
Now I'm waiting on something you said
Like a waitress too good to forget
Like the words sung over cassette

Do-do-do-do
I don't care
You're a cult in this place
I don't care
Watch my skull give and take
I don't care where will we go
I don't care where will we go
I don't care

Funeral Suits are a four-piece from Ireland consisting of Brian James, Mik McKeogh, Greg McCarthy and Dar Grant. The music they make is expansive without being overblown, heavy without being menacing and all the more thrilling for its restraint. 

A shared love of epic, distorted guitars, blistering harmonius pop, art rock and
electronica led to the band spending the best part of two years holed up in a disused office space in deepest North County Dublin, writing, rehearsing and at times venturing out to play as special guests for Franz Ferdinand, Passion Pit, The Maccabees, Local Natives amongst others.

Funeral Suits have recorded their debut album 'Lily of the Valley' with acclaimed producer Stephen Street (Blur, The Smiths) which is due for release on Model Citizen records on June 1st in Ireland and June 4th everywhere else.
