Johnny Borrell has vowed not to go solo.

The Razorlight frontman is tired of rumours he is set to leave the band to work alone and blasted people who doubt his dedication to the 'Golden Touch' rockers.

If I go to a concert and see a band I don't like, at least I can be objective, but it seems that people want to believe the c**p that's written about me

He said: "It's total rubbish. I've never said I want to release a solo album. But it doesn't matter if I say a hundred times, 'I'm in a band', no one wants to listen.

"Noel Gallagher writes the songs for Oasis but doesn't get half the criticism I do.

"It's like when someone asks to photograph Razorlight for a magazine and we'll say, 'Yes, put the band on the front' but then they go and use a picture of just me and then people have a pop at me for it.

"People prefer to think I'm always losing my temper but I'm committed to this band."

Johnny also insisted recent criticism of the band's new album 'Slipway Fires' was not about the quality of the songs but a personal attack on him.
