Well, it is hard to miss: Mr. Idol befriends increasingly with electronics. What was still taboo in "Billy Idol", in "Rebel Yell" was present in passing, in "Wiplash Smile" was again banished almost from the disk, can be heard clearly here: You move with the times; a little Sythetik must be found - but that does not detract from the rock giants, no, what could be called "put" or "foreign" works here fresh and atmospheric. Because "Pumping on steel" is simply 'ne force, "Licence to Thrill" leaves a sink almost in ecstasy and "Prodigal Son" reminds me of a deserted, dark and impenetrable desert, in the lonely birds chirping and the sound of clear creek melt into the music - so music has to be, and here proves Billy Idol once again that he can do much more to croak than just in the microphone and to scrub the guitars. But the friends of louder music will get their costs, but not as snotty and noisy, how it should be used from his debut album "Billy Idol". But this "metamorphosis" testifies to the dynamic that sets the masters of the day. Remains to be seen how this has long announced album "Breakthrough" sounds, according to the commercial and artistic setback "Cyberpunk".
