Former Razorlight drummer Andy Burrows quit the band following a series of rows with frontman Johnny Borrell - accusing the singer of taking all the credit for writing their hits.

Burrows, who announced his departure from Razorlight earlier this month(Mar09), claims Borrell wanted to be known as the band's sole songwriter, which prompted several heated arguments between the rockers.

He says, "It was hell. I'm so glad I'm out of it. I hated being in the band. Johnny and I didn't get on. Now I've got my freedom. "He never wanted people to know that we both wrote songs and I couldn'tbe in control".

 And the star, who has since been replaced by percussionist David Sullivan-Kaplan, insists he is relieved to be able to pursue other endeavours. He adds "Now at least I'm happy.
