Rock powerhouse Daughtry are ready to turn up the voltage again with Shock to the System (Part Two), out now via Big Machine Rock. The follow-up to the band’s hit Part One EP, this new collection continues frontman Chris Daughtry’s creative evolution — bold, honest, and unapologetically raw.
Following April’s haunting single “The Day I Die,” Daughtry offers another glimpse into the project with “The Bottom,” now available on all streaming platforms. Driven by a grinding groove and layered distortion, the track sees Chris Daughtry at his most vulnerable and defiant. His gripping vocal performance builds toward a cathartic refrain: “I was down in a hole until I clawed my way back from the bottom.”
“Shock to the System is about facing the things we’ve ignored and confronting the wake-up calls that force us to go deeper and get honest,” says Chris Daughtry. “These songs unlocked something in me as a writer and a human being. Part Two is the result of that journey.”
The new EP follows the success of Shock to the System (Part One), which delivered two consecutive #1 hits at active rock radio with “Artificial” and “Pieces.” With Part Two, the band continues to merge introspective lyrics with arena-ready power, capturing both the struggle and the triumph that define Daughtry’s sound.
