BILLY IDOL: 40 years ago …

Automatic translation. Improvements are constantly being worked on.

1986 did not mark a new beginning for Billy Idol, but a turning point. While work began on a follow-up album to “Rebel Yell”, his private life increasingly fell apart at the seams. A painful separation, growing loneliness and escalating drug use characterized this phase, which left clear traces in his music. In our March/April issue, we take a look back at a time when “Whiplash Smile” was not created under ideal conditions.
