.Arrangers: Steve Stevens Billy Idol.Especially once it was reissued
in the US with Generation X s classic punk-pop single Dancing with
Myself tacked on the end, Billy Idol s 1982 solo debut wore its ties to
the British New Wave scene proudly. For his 1984 follow-up, however,
Idol dropped those associations almost entirely and re-presented himself
as a leather-clad hard-rocker. It s a fine distinction to be sure, but
one that suited him REBEL YELL is a superior album to its predecessor.
Keith Forsey s crisp production perfectly suits the tougher new songs,
and showcases Steve Stevens s punchy, metallic guitar playing, the
songs most potent weapon. Particularly on the rambunctious title track,
the creepy Eyes Without a Face, and the sensual Flesh for
Fantasy --all big MTV and radio hits--Idol, Stevens, and Forsey blend
metal, hard rock, and pure pop tendencies better than almost any act at
the time. The expanded CD adds five demos, including the previously
unreleased Motorbikin .
