Veteran rocker BILLY IDOL recently spoke to Google Play about one of his favourite things:
Billy Idol is planning to put out some new music and old memories in 2014, reports Billboard.com's Gary Graff.
The punk rock veteran is in the midst of both recording a new album and writing an autobiography. He has been slipping new songs such as 'Ghosts' and 'Love And Glory' into his recent sets, and he says that he and his band are finishing what will be his first album since 2006's Happy Holidays and his first of original material since Devil's Playground in 2005.
"We're building up to make a new album in the autumn," Idol reported. "I've been gradually putting new songs together. A couple of them are a little more ballad-like, but of course we balance those off against a lot of the sort of fun Idol songs that people know and expect. It's as easy and as difficult as it's always been. A new songs is kind of like an undiscovered country... You're dreaming up this world that is going to exist. It's just in song shape. I still find it really exciting. There's the same easy part to it, the same difficult part to songwriting. I find it really intriguing, I really do. The day you come up with a killer song you're just over the moon. It pays you back a thousand fold."Read more at this location.
