Razorlight - Up All Night
Written by Nicholas Jennings    PDF Print E-mail

Razorlight - Up All Night With 22-year-old firecracker Johnny Borrell leading the charge, Britain’s Razorlight is the latest challenger to the throne of American rockers the Strokes. Borrell has all the makings of an upstart young rock prince, including a reckless spirit, androgynous good looks and an excess of confidence—make that arrogance. But, with songs as good as the edgy “Rock and Roll Lies,” the U2-ish “Stumble and Fall” and the insanely catchy feel-good number “Golden Touch,” Borrell’s Razorlight might well deserve the crown.
