Razorlight has announced their latest single, "Zombie Love," which marks the third release from their upcoming album, "Planet Nowhere." The new track reflects the band's signature vibrant indie spirit, characterized by catchy melodies and jangly guitar riffs. Frontman Johnny Borrell's lyrics explore the intricacies of a challenging romantic relationship, with striking lines such as, "You're not the only cowgirl that I ever went down on / But you're the only love I had to walk out on."
In a recent press release, Borrell emphasized the importance of this single as it represents the first collaboration with drummer Andy Burrows since the band's reunion. Borrell expressed that he sought inspiration from a wide array of artists, intending to meld styles reminiscent of Outkast's eclectic sound, Beck's acclaimed "Midnite Vultures," and the distinctive essence of The Pixies.
"Planet Nowhere" is scheduled for release on October 25 and will be the first album to feature the classic lineup of Borrell, guitarist Bjorn Agren, drummer Andy Burrows, and bassist Carl Dalemo since 2008. Borrell expressed his astonishment at the band's revival and his hopes that fans will receive the new material positively.
Fans can pre-order the album through the official Razorlight website. Additionally, the band is planning an intimate tour to coincide with the album release, with ticket details available here. The upcoming tour features sold-out shows across the UK, culminating in their performance at the O2 Academy Brixton on November 21.
