Slipway Fires is Razorlight's most mainstream release to date, an album that downplays the band's garage rock past for something akin to Snow Patrol's slick pop. Thick harmonies and economical hooks demonstrate Razorlight's growth, while the album's earnest piano ballads and well-scrubbed rock songs target a new audience. For those keeping score, this is also the group's last album with drummer Andy Burrows, who launched a solo career soon after its release.Sometimes you need to get away from it all, even when your life succeeds beyond your wildest dreams. Just ask Razorlight songwriter, lead singer and guitarist Johnny Borrell, who secreted away on an island off Scotland to write the British band's third CD, the melodic, musically adventurous "Slipway Fires."
