Very consistent album

Billy Idol's last album Cyberpunk was very well done. I couldn't believe the bad reviews given to it back in 1993. This was a very creative album. Idol was getting into this electronica sound long before the late 90s trend of it was getting onto it. And he succeeded on most levels, combining it with his guitar rock. The first song Wasteland is so funky as well as Shock to The System. The song Heroin is also solid. While his longtime songwriting and music partner Steve Stevens is missed on this album, Idol decided to move on and make this album. A few numbers are a little weird and don't fit with Billy's style. But the album is daring in its approach to its music and the landscapes it brings. As his new album hits stores this week on March 29th, this past album deserves far more respect than it's getting. This ranks right up there with his best '80s albums and 1990's Charmed Life.

Biily Idol Cyberpunk tour was the best Idol tour ever!!!

This is a great record, I was fortunate enough to see Billy Idol live in Mannheim Germany back in August 1993 opening for (of all bands) Bon Jovi. Billy was awesome, truly amazing, and he practically performed and played this album in it's entirety, I can still hear Shangrila, that was an awesome tune!!! I wish Billy would have released a live album or video after this release to show what a great show he played in support of this record...oh well, Devil's Playground is going to be another great record and tour!!!

1993!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can not believe it. It was released in 1993. One of the best punk-rock-electronic albums ever made. I have 28 years old, I hear it since 1996, and he introduces my into Nine Inch Nails. INCLEDIBLE!
