Daughtry Announces First Big Machine Rock EP, “Shock to the System (Part One)”

GRAMMY®-nominated rockers Daughtry have announced the release of their debut Big Machine Rock EP, Shock to the System (Part One), set to drop on September 27th. Along with the announcement, they've shared a new track.The new song, "The Reckoning," is a powerful anthem for confronting the ultimate challenge of battling your personal demons. As the lead single from their upcoming EP, the track encourages listeners to tackle the burdens of the past head-on. "The Reckoning" delves into themes of mental health, intensified by deep synth layers that echo the struggle of overcoming pain to reach the future you've always dreamed of.

The high-energy track marks the start of a finely tuned, razor-sharp new chapter for the band as they kick off the rollout for their upcoming EP. "The Reckoning" will be featured alongside previous releases like "Nervous," "Pieces," and "Artificial" on the new record. Notably, "Artificial" earned the band their first No. 1 at Active Rock and their first No. 1 single in 15 years.

---------" “’The Reckoning’ is about that moment in life when you realise that you are in control of your own destiny,” frontman Chris Daughtry explains. “It’s about that moment you decide to take responsibility for the person you want to be and the choices you have to make to become that version of yourself – the day you understand that you are no longer a victim of circumstance, rather the creator of your own experience.” ---------
