BILLY IDOL - Whiplash Smile (Reissue) - LP - Vinyl [AUG 15]

1LP - Black Vinyl (2025 Reissue). 

The album burst into life with guitarist Steve Stevens’ suitably muscular riffing on the opening “World’s Forgotten Boy,” and its clutch of flashy, hi-octane anthems (“Don’t Need A Gun,” “Soul Standing By,” and “Fatal Charm”) played to Idol’s strengths, with their punk and hard rock credentials given a mainstream sheen and embellished with dancefloor-friendly beats by producer Keith Forsey.
