You can do it using commands. But the amount of work you have to do is a bit more than just writing a method to bind it. This post on commands in WPF and Silverlight might help you in understanding and implementing commands: http://tsells.wordpress.com/2010/06/23/command-binding-with-wpf-and-silverlight-net-4-0-with-m-v-vm/

It will work on Windows 8 also, as it is a feature of XAML.

You need to handle the Click event through a handler method in the code behind of that xaml file. For example, if the xaml you show is in a MyControl.xaml. You'll have a method like the following in the MyControl.xaml.cs:

private void removeAlbumBtn_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    var a = ((Button)sender).DataContext as ABC;

    if(a != null)
        a.someMethod();
}

And change the xaml to be: 

<Button Name="removeAlbumBtn" Content="method" Click="removeAlbumBtn_Click"/>
