Billy Idol’s autobiography has just been published: Dancing With Myself features copious sex, drugs and violence, and that’s before Billy’s even coined his stage name. But this venture into the literary sphere does not mean he’s forgotten about the music, because he releases his first album for eight years on 21 October.
Kings & Queens of the Underground sees the Idol’s croon-and-sneer returning, and even features, in Postcards from the Past, what we might loosely call a stadium-punk take on It Was a Very Good Year. Have a listen, and let us know what you think.
