Information regarding the new Billy Idol record has been popping up all over the place the last few months.
Well, the man has finally broken the silence and given us almost everything we could possibly want. Billy Idol will release Kings and Queens of the Underground on October 21 on his own label, BFI Records. He has also given us the lead single off the album, “Can’t Break Me Down.”
The song is fantastic. It features the classic punk sound that we would all expect from Idol. But there’s this relevant, magical touch that he adds to this song that makes it sound so modern.
As a reminder, Idol also has a documentary called Dancing With Myself, which will be out on October 7.

I am going to be honest here for a moment… (that is honest with the H pronounced)… I have never listened to Billy Idol. This song makes me really want to get into his stuff. Now… where to start?!
Either his 1982 self-titled debut or ’84’s Rebel Yell.
