Butch Walker

I Liked It Better When You Had No Heart

Borrow It

With a Bible Belt hangover, Butch Walker journeys ("got my boarding pass and a tank of gas") into territories well-tattooed. It's a road trip with smooth production, but needs lyrical grounding. Apologies to Mr. Cash for this line: "I kissed a man in Reno/Just to watch him puke."
