Free Music Notes for Razorlight
Free Music Review: Here's hoping they make it big in America!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Razorlight's eponymous sophomore disc, pared down to 10 tracks, is much stronger than their debut `Up all night' which itself was a great CD. Very catchy rock/pop, with lead singer Johnny Borrell's vocals pushed to the fore.
Opening with upbeat rocker `In the morning' a UK top 10 hit, you know you're in for a treat. `Who needs love' is a nice retro pop song. Sunny upbeat `Hold on' has a Motown feel.
My favourite track is their current UK #1 single, the mellow `America'. Very catchy `O-O-oh, trouble in America' chorus.
Jangly, almost folk guitars drive `Before I fall to pieces'. `I can't stop this feeling I've got' with its tempo changes is a lovely song. The pulsing `Pop song 2006' is another brilliant rocker.
`Kirby's house' was featured on the charity compilation `War Child: Help - A day in the life' (another great CD I highly recommend).
Closing out are (slightly ska influenced) `Back to the start' and taking the tempo down a bit, the mini epic `Los Angeles Waltz'.
With a collection of songs this strong, it should be tough picking favourites or singles. Brilliant!!
Razorlight Poster
International pressing of their 2006 sophomore album, the follow up to 2004's successful Up All Night album. 10 tracks including the cracking single 'In The Morning' plus 'Kirby's House' (as featured on the album Warchild: Help - A Day In The Life). Universal.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
