It was 2006 when Chris Daughtry took part in American Idol show and arrived fourth, and right in 2006 he decided to continue his career making American Idol his launching pad to become a rock star through his rock band “Daughtry”.
“Leave This Town” is exactly the album I expected to listen to because it follows the same path of the previous one “Daughtry”. Actually, if the songs of “Leave This Town” would be put together with the “Daughtry” ones I don’t think anyone would notice the difference between them. I’d say it’s quite boring to see and hear a band repeating itself but in this case I kind of like this choice. On the other hand you can see this choice as a way to stay coherent, maybe the band needs more time to evolve its music in something new that can stand out from the bunch of current rock bands.
“September”, “Tenesse Line” and “Call Your Name” are the slowest songs in which Chris energetic voice turns into a more intense mood. Daughtry style is that one that can be liked even by those who are not rock fans at all since it is pop/rock (more rock than pop) with catchy melodies and really good vocals.
