Up All Night

EDITORIAL REVIEWS
'Up All Night' is one of the most hotly anticipated albums of 2004, coming, as it does, from one of the finest young rock'n'roll bands to emerge in Britain for many long years - Razorlight. Led by the charismatic Johnny Borrell, Razorlight have spent much of 2003 and 2004 grabbing headlines, releasing sharp sounding singles and generally behaving like the greatest band that ever walked the earth.

Razorlight's debut album largely delivers on the promise of its successful UK singles, four of which form the core of this equally stripped-to-the-essentials collection. Singer Johnny Borrell may have played the English music press hype sweepstakes like a champion, but his self-aggrandizing swagger seems more like a shrewd focusing technique here. Standouts like "Vice," the title track and bright, crafty single "Golden Touch" show there's much more to the band than its early Strokes/Television comparisons, while guitarist Bjorn Arens' clean, urgent slashing argues that three-chord rock can still be about as simple as a nervous breakdown. The album's youthful, urban-hedonism obsessions may rankle more jaded ears, even as the garage rave-up throwback "In the City" finds the manic, word-tripping Borrell suggesting Dylan fronting the Yardbirds. If Borrell's motor-mouth tendencies sometimes get the best of him (especially on ballads like "Fall, Fall, Fall" and "Dalston"), his sense of punk-smart dramaturgy is nigh-perfect foil for his band's brash, keep-it-simple-not-slick verve. --Jerry McCulley
