Butch is the Man

Song: "Suburbia"
Artist: Butch Walker
Album: Left of Self-Centered

Noted wiseass and very gifted singer, songwriter and producer Butch Walker spread his wings when he left the band Marvelous 3 to start a solo career. This was the first solo effort for Butch and for my money, it's one of the greatest rock albums of all-time. He hasn't quite matched the magic of that album, but the songs on this one stand the test of time anyway. Plus, Butch has made a nice career as a producer and songwriter, working with the likes of Avril Lavigne and Bowling For Soup, among many others. This song is a prime example of how Butch marries witty lyrics with hooks that don't quit.
