Editorial Reviews

Though he s been a first-call songwriter and producer for artists ranging
from Fall Out Boy to Weezer to Pink to Dashboard Confessional for some
time, Butch Walker has never had more to write about than he does right
now. In recent years he has witnessed the birth of his first child, lost his home (and recording masters) to Malibu wildfires, and turned 40. Appropriately
then, Butch s new album I Liked It Better When You Had No Heart is about beginnings, endings, and the long journey in between. The album, featuring eleven new songs co-written by Walker and his songwriting partner Michael Trent, will be released exclusively on vinyl on February 2, 2010, followed by a
cd/digital release on February 23, 2010. --This text refers to the Vinyl edition.

Butch Walker completely ignores the pulse of modern music and just records the songs he'd want to hear. Luckily, he has good taste.

At first I wasn't sure I liked this CD, it jumps all over the musical spectrum, but there is something completely ButchWalker about it that ties it all together. I found myself hours later humming the songs and searching for the lyrics.

On third listen, I knew these songs were forever a part of the soundtrack of my life. Thanks Butch.

I am a diehard Butch fan. I can't say I really love this release though. It is akin to Sycamore Meadows and has more of a cafe feel to it. It is lacking the old, heavy guitar riffs of the past. I understand his need for creativity and appreciate his indie style. The music still has heart and soul, that is never lacking. I just miss the balls out rocking. Butch, how about next time around you go back to your roots, at least for half the songs? I'd really love that. Thank you.
