Critic Reviews
Show All-
Loudwire
Daughtry have definitely laid out the blueprint for crafting addictive modern day melodic rock and have another hit on their hands with ‘Break the Spell.
-
Sputnik Music
Daughtry's best album to date sees the group opt in for a more upbeat and even poppier sound. Though it pays dividends.
-
Slant Magazine
On Break the Spell, the band doesn’t get distracted by such niceties as arrangements that might show off more impressive technical chops or words that actually make sense and have substantive meaning in the order in which they’ve been written.
-
Mind Equals Blown
Daughtry is on the downfall, and, whether you can believe it or not, they’ve almost reached Nickelback’s depravity.
-
All Music
It’s as if DAUGHTRY believe they’ve earned their rock & roll stripes so they no longer need to prove that they’re for real -- they can just ease into the role of sugary arena rockers that they’ve always been destined to be.
-
American Songwriter
Regrettably, Break The Spell never fulfills its mission of delivering an unabashed rock effort and genuine nuggets of musical magic are few and far between.
-
The Void Magazine
Much as I love Daughtry, I’m not sure Break the Spell has enough depth to take them to a ‘safe place’ for the future.
-
Pop Matters
Daughtry may not be acknowledged by the radio heads like they were a few years ago these days, but their core fan base will treasure a fine record in their hands.
-
Entertainment Weekly
He wields his Ginsu-sharp melodies like a Benihana chef on Break the Spell, which (almost) lets him get away with being more Bon Jovi than Black Sabbath.
-
Planet Mosh
This is an excellent third album, filled with great modern mainstream rock tracks, with a good mix of upbeat fun songs and slow ballads, though the slower songs carry evocative lyrics.
-
Alternative Addiction
Not great work. RCA aren’t the only culprits with Daughtry but it’s a huge annoyance.
-
Rolling Stone India
More cheeseball rock ballads about really meaning it, man.
-
Melodic
It's impossible NOT to be impressed by Daughtry.
