Pro Reviews: DAUGHTRY
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Everything that made Chris Daughtry insufferable as a contestant on American Idol his utter lack of humor, his oppressive earnestness, his desire to sing every song in the same gutwrenching fashion, a style that only suited the postgrunge brooding that is his chosen specialty work for him on his postIdol debut album, Daughtry. Technically, this is not a solo album, it's the debut of a band called Daughtry, which is actually spelled all in capital letters, which could be seen as a sign that Chris Daughtry might have a bit of a credibility complex. It certainly seems as if he thinks he'll only be taken seriously as part of a band that, like lots of bands from the grunge revolution, is spelled in a specific, exacting way, even if it means that by the rules of the internet he is, quite literally, shouting at us which is only appropriate for a singer who is fueled by Fuel and lives by Live. And, let's face facts, DAUGHTRY was formed by Daughtry not only after his run on American Idol, but after he recorded this debut album: the band is for show, to prove that he's the real deal, baby, not some pansy TV singer. It's a posture that's not only just a teeny bit defensive, but one that's utterly unnecessary because the album DAUGHTRY is actually very good, whether it's judged by the standards of American Idol or by the standards of Fuel or Nickelback. Compared to Fuel the band that invited Daughtry to be their frontman after he was voted off Idol Daughtry has a lighter touch not just in his delivery but also in his songs, which are far hookier than most postgrunge; and if he's compared to Nickelback, he's a far more appealing frontman than that lunkhead Chad Kroeger, with a greater vocal range and far more sensitivity in his singing. Daughtry's way with a hook and empathetic emoting are placed far up in the unapologetically professional mix on DAUGHTRY, which is designed to cross over not to the pop market everybody involved knew that DAUGHTRY had that anyway thanks to Daughtry's TV celebrity but to the rock market, so everybody involved made sure not to temper the guitars with layers of synths or even to indulge in too many power ballads. The resulting album may play strictly by the rules of mainstream postgrunge and it may never achieve the sweat and grit that real rock bands do even after they've been cleaned up in the studio, but it follows the modern rock blueprint exceedingly well, creating drama even in its pedestrian moments. It also helps that the songs are sturdier than most postgrunge, with big, anthemic hooks on the choruses and verses that are lively enough not to bore. In short, it sounds like the work of a bunch of professionals, which is true to a certain extent: it was produced by Howard Benson, bestknown for LPs by My Chemical Romance and AllAmerican Rejects, but Benson and DAUGHTRY didn't draft in a bunch of pros to write the songs each tune bears a writing credit by Daughtry, and most of them are solo credits. Listening to these songs, it would be easy to mistake them for the work of seasoned pros: they not only follow the template of postgrunge well, they do it with better hooks and a commercial flair lacking from bands like Fuel and Shinedown, bands that have inspired Daughtry but who he betters here. To put it mildly, that's a surprise not just that Daughtry pulled off the tricky move of being pop enough for his Idol fans and rock enough for postgrungers, but that he pulled it off on the strength of his own work. While he hasn't shaken off all the problems that plagued him on the show he still could learn that a sense of humor helps add depth to his music, or at least he could realize that rock roll should be fun at least some of the time but he's made those qualities work on a debut that's not only a lot more credible than any American Idolaffiliated rock album should be, but it's a lot easier to digest than most of its ilk. - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide |

Pros: Catchy songs
Cons: Nothing new
Not crowned American Idol Season, only ending up at no4 spot, but Daughtry seems to be a potential rockstar out of the top 12. More than 6 months after the finale, he has already released his debut album with his band Daughtry. The album sold more than 300 .000 copies in its first week, and has been certified Gold so far. Alternative songs in this album, especially the lead single " It's not over ", remind me of Nickelback's music. A good choice for those who love " All the right reasons ".
