His new cd is outstanding. He should have left "Bleeding Me Insane" on the album and taken off one of the tracks towards the end. The song is availble online as a bonus if you buy the cd at target. It looks like the cd has already fallen off the face of the planet. That really sucks, because I am a huge fan(hence my avatar). I just saw him live in Chicago and once again he kicked ass. It is so sad that, in many ways like Roth, Billy gets no respect nor recognition. The man smokes live and his music is pure Rock and Roll. Is it all 5 stars? Of course not! Regardless, most of it is super fun music. Give the new album a chance. It is better than much of the shit out there.

Didn't see him when he came through town but I did buy this release the same day I bought the new Judas Preist. They're both getting equal time in the cd player.

Is it a great cd? No, but I like it and the same can be said for the Preist cd too!

Go to www.billyidol.com and click on the Target promo. You will need a code. There are two bonus tracks. Also, like anything else DrMaddVibe, you can never please everyone. I think it is up there with his better work. Also, consider that the guy is 49 years old. BTW, I highly suggest the following site. It contains awesome live performances. Check out the Billy Idol Live at the Roxy Theater. The audio is pretty good. He gave a free performance to fans who bought the album on the 25th of March. It should give you an idea of how awesome the man is live. They just crank out rock stars like Billy and Dave anymore! Anyhow, here is the link. You will not be disappointed!!!
