Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Razorlight's eponymous sophomore release doesn't so much reinvent the freewheeling sensibilities of their '04 debut Up All Night as hone them into a more willfully focused pop whole, a mindset that immediately evinces itself on the inviting, Boomtown Rats-meets-INXS-flavored opener "In the Morning." The growing confidence of songwriter/vocalist Johnny Borrell is almost palpable as he expands the band's horizons to include the '50s-rooted influences of "Before I Fall to Pieces" and the Dion-esque "Who Needs Love," the Chrissie Hynde-bred tension of "Hold On" and the sonic fervor of early U2 on "Pop Song 2006." Gratifyingly, that tack has also pushed the rest of the band - especially guitarist Bjorn Agren - towards honing their chops in service of a tighter, yet still playful sound. It may be too easy for seasoned ears to deconstruct the influences here, but by the time this taut, economic collection closes on the high note of the melodramatic "Los Angeles Waltz" even the cynics should be won over. --Jerry McCulley
Description
The follow-up to the million selling 2004 debut 'Up All Night', Johnny Borrell and Co release their self-titled second album. Recorded in London and produced by Chris Thomas (U2, Pulp, Elton John), this effort delivers a more mature, anthemic sound, drawing comparisons with Oasis' 'Definitely Maybe' and consolidating Razorlight's status as one of Britain's top guitar bands. Includes the single 'In The Morning'.
