Billy Idol has announced a new album, Dream Into It, arriving April 25th. The video for lead single 'Still Dancing' can be streamed below.
The autobiographical song calls back to one of Idol's biggest hits ('Dancing with Myself') and charts his musical journey, from humble punk roots to rockstar status. That's reflected in the music, which channels the sound of Idol's '80s heyday with its throwback production, surging guitars, and huge chorus hook.

'At the start of the song I'm recalling the early times in London, when I was living in squats or at friends' apartments, all my belongings in a plastic bag,' said Idol in a press release. 'Everybody at home or work told you what you were doing was never going to happen. But punk rock gave me an opening. I was surrounded by people who loved the music as deeply as I did and you were going to throw caution to the wind, believe in what you were doing and grab on for dear life.'
He added, 'As the song says, there have been many moments along the way where I've been self-destructive. But what's seen me through is that unflinching belief in the music that started all those years ago. That's been the greatest gift of all.'
'Still Dancing' serves as the closing track on Dream Into It — Idol's first full-length studio album since 2014. The LP spans nine songs and features guest appearances by Avril Lavigne, Joan Jett, and Alison Mosshart of The Kills.
A few days after the record's release, Idol will hit the road with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts for a previously announced North American tour. Dates kick off April 30th in Phoenix, with tickets available here.
