Billy Idol - Kings & Queens of The Underground (Album Review)

October 10, 2014 by David Vousden in Rock, Album Reviews, Classic Rock

‘Kings & Queens of the Underground’ is the first album of new original material from Billy Idol since the 2005 release of ‘Devil’s Playground’ and only his third in over twenty years. Quality over quantity is the way to go. ‘Kings’ is the ideal audio accompaniment to his recently released memoir ‘Dancing With Myself’ as it looks back, but also forward as it adds some new elements to the Billy Idol sound that made him one of the biggest stars of the 80’s MTV revolution. The album was written and recorded with long-time collaborator / guitarist Steve Stevens and Billy Morrison (Royal Machines / Camp Freddy / The Cult) and produced, in the main, by Trevor Horn of Yes, The Buggles and Frankie Goes To Hollywood fame.
