    The very first version of SDRE I ever heard was the intro w/ the "freestyle" tacked onto the end. The album intro fades out, but there is indeed a version where the rap part is a few seconds longer.

    Then, of course, is the b-side that's actually a full song. I've had that one for awhile. I think I stumbled upon it when the Color Me Badd EP came out. Or the Heartworks EP. I can't recall.

    edit: I realize my facts are mixed up - I meant, #1 Summer Jam has the extended rap. SDRE (the full version) was on an EP though, pretty sure.

    Ok..you guys need to help me on this:

    Stay Gold
    ======
    you're standing outside the Dollar General
    another ..... boulevard
    (i cannot hear clearly on this)
    get one more bag of dime store weed
    to smoke in my backyard

    well i'm so damn bored I can cut my self
    only four more hours to kill
    everyday until my mom gets up
    from working at the mill

    you gotta stay gold now ponyboy
    don't let them get you down
    while the lovers are work for coffee/taxes
    remember that you own this town
    not a soul is gonna listen/hear you
    yeah your scream wont make a sound
    in the world so black and white boy
    stay gold

    we went by and marry in train track
    where your sister lost in a daze
    traded the dirty magazine to pinball Gavel's place
    and i remember you're always sayin
    if you ever get out alive
    that you quit using and you get married to the girl on page 25

    ...

    Ok, so blink-182 didn't do a surprise release, but maybe Butch can?

    I can wait another week or two if necessary.

    Slow down, Quentin Supporter

    I doubt it will happen but God I want this thing out to soundtrack my summer. If it dropped anytime in the next six weeks I'd be happy as a kid on Christmas. I hope it's not another six month rollout like AOG (And, just so you know, if you try to pronounce "AOG" it sounds like the noise you make after hitting your head on the coffee table).

    A bunch of his Twitter or Instagram comments/hashtags have referenced this being a summer album. No way it doesn't come out sometime this summer, even if it is later in the season like The Spade was.

    The Spade came out on my birthday, so I'd be chill w/ Butch doing that again. He's so thoughtful.

    I'm definitely hopeful. I could see it being a good August album to soundtrack those last pretty days, kind of like that Counting Crows album back in 2014. I'm just impatient. The clips make me think that this is the BW album I've been waiting for.

    Okay guys I've had a hard time getting into Butch Walker because there's just so much... Can someone make me like a starter pack playlist?

    Listen to Letters first and foremost. After that, it depends, because all his albums have unique feels and styles. It comes down to personal preference, but I'd jump to The Spade next. Very accessible and fun southern-tinged rock and roll.

    Thanks! I've listened to Letters but didn't now where to go from there, so this helps

    Can't quite figure out why Butch/Dangerbird are sitting on this. At least announce the thing!

    I know! He literally posts #staygold every day w/o telling us about the record itself!

    Currently compiling a "Perfect LP" feature on Butch for Modern Vinyl. A perfect 50-minute approximation of who he is as an artist and his best songs. It's fucking impossible.

  20. It's hard to think of another artist that would have a more stylistically diverse compilation of great tracks than Butch. If you put together cuts from all of his albums, the sounds are all over the map.

    Sounds pretty impossible, especially since you have to include pretty much EVERY song off of The Spade
     
  22. Craig Manning

    @FurtherFromSky Moderator

    Especially if you include Marvelous 3!

    There is only going to be one song off The Spade. Unfortunately.

    Seriously?! Which one?
     
  24. Craig Manning

    @FurtherFromSky Moderator

    I can't spoil that. But I mean, it's probably my fifth favorite record of his, so there are four that I want to focus on more and I only have like 12 tracks to work with. Makes sense to boil The Spade down to my favorite track, especially since I'd say it's a bit less sonically diverse than something like Sycamore Meadows or Letters.

    We must just like different styles from Butch. The Spade is my favourite from him, and then Peachtree Battle next.
