After this album failed, Billy's reaction was interesting as to the two things he did next. First he grew his hair longer and dreaded it... then he played a reunion show with Generation X.

So from one extreme to the other really. Then he took a couple years off and eventually reunited with Steve Stevens and started making the kind of music that really worked for him again. Well, except for that Sinatra wannabe Christmas album, but that's a whole other story.

I listened to Cyberpunk once and then tried to block it out of my mind forever. I might give it another shot now, for the Hell of it, I guess.

It’s funny cause his ex band member Tony James had made one of the most 80s cyber punk band ever with Sigue sigue sputnik. And then he reunites with him after he tries and fails at it…in a way.

It's better than i remembered, although that's a low bar. But then i kinda like that cheesy Christmas album, so my opinion is probably suspect.
