I am probably the biggest Dazed and Confused fan around, so seeing Matthew McConaughey reprise his role as David Wooderson literally made me giddy. For a song completely about liking party but without all of the glitter and flare that comes with it nowadays, Butch and the boys couldn&#8217;t have picked a better face for it. As a DaC fan, I like to think Wooderson would be exactly how he&#8217;s depicted in the music video; dressed exactly the same and picking up (multiple) women exactly his age. Music video aside, &#8220;Synthesizers&#8221; is a song to groove to. The build is perfect and it&#8217;s chorus is just catchy enough that it never gets annoying (at least it hasn&#8217;t for me yet).<\/p>\n<p>Butch Walker and the Black Widows&#8217;s new album <em>The\u00a0Spade <\/em>came out August of last year (sorry this isn&#8217;t the most current song, but it&#8217;s gonna make a comeback). If you&#8217;ve never heard of Butch Walker, you should probably Google this guy. He&#8217;s been in the music business for a while and done everything from 80&#8217;s metal to Southern blues. He&#8217;s been with the Black Widows since 2010. I would recommend listening to a little bit of everything from this guy, but mostly &#8220;Synthesizers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>(Fun Fact: Butch Walker is the bartender in the music video)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/thesocc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Butch_Walker_Black_Widows.jpg\" align=\"center\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Finally an anthem for all the people who are just f*****g tired of black lights and electronic music.<\/p>\n<p>Click CONTINUE READING for complete article and song.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1105,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[12,20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1315","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-music","category-music-of-the"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pa7fJU-ld","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.coloradocollege.edu\/socc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1315","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.coloradocollege.edu\/socc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.coloradocollege.edu\/socc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.coloradocollege.edu\/socc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1105"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.coloradocollege.edu\/socc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1315"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sites.coloradocollege.edu\/socc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1315\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.coloradocollege.edu\/socc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1315"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.coloradocollege.edu\/socc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1315"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.coloradocollege.edu\/socc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1315"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
