Dang. Nice! Finally, a new song from a golden oldie artist that sounds like them, is catchy, and doesn't sound contrived. That's rare.

Billy! That was great, and have always been a fan.

Bitter Taste from a few years ago was also great, and hes going on tour.

Yeah, I hate to say it, but most older artists release new music that sounds like a super pale version of their early work. Just lifeless with no mojo. Not that song!

I don't like it as much as Scream or Postcards From The Past, but still quite good.

The career journey/autobiographical nature of this concept album reminds me of Motley Crue's Saints of Los Angeles album.

Cool song. I've been a fan of Billy's for a long time, seen him several times. I debated on getting tickets to his most recent tour, but just couldn't swing the price that was being asked this go around.

Billy Idol will get the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2026 American Music Awards on May 25.

I assume he will perform too?

I forgot how good Whiplash Smile was and I think it could have been his best album and better than Rebel Yell though that is good too.
