"Rescue Me, " in particular, was inspired by lead singer Josh Todd's reading of A Child Called 'It' by Dave Pelzer, and addresses the trauma of child abuse and the hope of redemption.

RMFN Notes:

"Buckcherry was still riding the peak of their career on Black Butterfly and it shows. This album is just about as good on paper as its predecessor 15, however I prefer this one as it pushes the band's boundaries. Sure, their sound has been pretty consistent throughout their career, but Buckcherry decided to dive deeper and make a more urgent, vulnerable, and darker album with Black Butterfly. Big ups to them reincluding 'Too Drunk', still one of my favorite concert pregame tracks."  - Chris
