Former Razorlight frontman Johnny Borrell has claimed that the band wanted to put another album out, but their record label refused.
The band are currently on hiatus, and it’s anyone’s guess as to when they’ll get back together and make new music. But, in an interview with NME, Borrell has revealed that the band had hopes of putting together a new LP before disbanding.
He told the magazine:
“We really felt we had a record that we wanted to put out, but my label was very fractured and it was very hard to communicate with them. The label was focused on having a super-mega hit, and unless I played them a 'Golden Touch' or 'America' they wouldn't let me make a record. All I was trying to do was make a good record.”
Talking of the band’s future, he stated that there’ll ‘definitely’ be some Razorlight activity in the future.
“There'll definitely be a point where it's going to feel exciting to do a Razorlight record. When? I dunno, somewhere in the future.”
