After the departure of lead singer Chris Batstone, Suburban Legends re-released their debut album, Suburban Legends, by removing the vocal track featuring Chris, and replacing it with a vocal track of new lead singer, Tim Maurer. Suburban Legends (Tim Remix) is essentially the same album from the Orange County based ska band. It was released in 2002 in Los Angeles, California by Lobster Girl Records. Its first pressing came with a green cover which was later changed to an orange cover. The green cover version is now very hard to find. The music, however, is the same on both editions.

Because the only real change to the album was the vocal track, Suburban Legends fans have been able to compare and debated over which version of the album, and essentially which singer, is better. Chris' version has generally been considered more energetic with his powerful singing voice, while Tim's voice has been regarded as more melodious with his emotional versions of the songs.
