As we all saw on American Idol, Daughtry (the man and the band) has a very specific style. It’s very similar to Live and Fuel in that he relies on great hooks. The other notable thing is that Chris Daughtry has an amazing voice. Let’s face it – he really does. And every song on this album just accentuates it perfectly. He has a flair for the dramatic and the emphatic, and you really can’t go wrong with that when you sound like him.
The really unfortunate thing about this album is that all the songs sound so similar. I really wish he’d made the effort to expand his musical horizons a bit (as Simon Cowell seems to have said multiple times), but for a debut I suppose this will do.
