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 have been a Butch fan for quite some time. This is a very solid and complete album. His last two efforts have seemed to have seen Butch grow up a little bit. Like some others have stated, when I listen to this album, I hear splashes of ELO, Queen, and the Steve Miller Band. Some of the standouts on this album are Days/Months/Years, Pretty Melody, She Likes Hair Bands. Do yourself a favor and pick up this album, and if you can see Butch on tour, he puts on a great show.
