Two years on the road led Daughtry to promise a “more gritty sound” for their second album, Leave This Town. Dying to hear it? So were we, so we got our hands on it and we’re leaking this thing right now on MTV.com for a week before you can buy it. Listen to the whole thing, from opening track “You Don’t Belong” and single “No Surprise” (written with Nickelback’s Chad Kroeger), through to the closing notes of “Call Your Name.” If there was ever any question about the appeal of Daughtry — led by American Idol finalist Chris Daughtry — it was answered by the band’s quadruple-platinum, Grammy-nominated, self-titled debut. But with all that time on the road, Daughtry has become a band to be reckoned with, for sure. Leave This Town reunites Chris and his bandmates — bassist Josh Paul, drummer Joey Barnes, and guitarists Brian Craddock and Josh Steely — with Daughtry producer Howard Benson, who worked in the studio with the band in Los Angeles. Fans of the band will not be disappointed in Leave This Town, which picks up right where Daughtry left off. This is a band on a mission. Listen to the proof, right here, right now.

Now on to his third line up of the band in as many albums, Bill Nelson managed to stabilise the ship here, essentially retaining the same members who had made the previous “Futurama”. Keyboard player Andrew Clark is brought in to fill out the sound, but it is Nelson’s guitar which remains the lead instrument. The result is what is generally regarded as the finest album made in the Be Bop Deluxe name. While the songs here are essentially pop based with new wave overtones, to simply dismiss them as such is to overlook some fine compositions and musicianship.
For the first time, Nelson takes on production duties himself, sharing the role with John Leckie who is also making his debut as a producer. Nelson writes all the songs too.
The opening “Fair exchange” certainly plays up to the new wave sounds of the time, with a distinctly Talking Heads like feel. “Heavenly homes” is the first track here to feature one of Nelson’s fine guitar solos, with Clark’s synthesiser adding new colours to the band’s sound.
“Ships in the night” was the song which single handedly propelled Be Bop Deluxe into the next level of success. The song was released as a single at the same time as the album, and sailed up the UK pop charts. The jaunty pop song, which is not really that representative of the band, featured Bill’s brother Ian guesting on saxophone. This leads into what is for me the finest track recorded by Be Bop Deluxe in their entire career. “Crying to the sky” is an irresistible rock ballad to which Bill Nelson adds some of the most striking and inspired guitar work I have heard. The song just oozes emotion, with Nelson’s guitar literally crying. My only grumble, the song should have been at least twice as long. Nelson is quoted as saying the guitar work here is that which gives him the most pride in any of his work.
“Sleep that burns” changes the pace completely again, the pounding rhythm alternating with slower sections in what is an unusually progressive arrangement (if not sound) by the band. “Beauty secrets” is one of several tracks which appears to reflect Nelson’s growing disillusionment with his career, “I’ll be your hero only as long as I’m paid”, but the song itself is ordinary. “Life in the air age” continues Nelson’s growing cynicism, his focus this time being modern life, “It’s grim enough to make a robot cry”.
“Like an old blues” is an undistinguished barroom like piano based shuffle. “Crystal gazing” is an orchestrated ballad which sees Nelson returning to his Bowie style, something he avoids for much of the album. The orchestral arrangement will not be to everyone’s taste, but it does give the song a uniqueness in terms of the album. We finish with the heavy driving rock of “Blazing apostles”, where Nelson directs his cynicism towards the cash for forgiveness messages of T.V. evangelists.
In all, a fine album which features some of the best songs of Be Bop Deluxe. While the album is not without its faults, these can easily be overlooked in the context of the sublime “Crying to the sky”.
The sleeve illustration of a high heeled naked lady holding a burning guitar aloft is striking. It must surely have helped to shift a few more units of the album to the frustrated youth of the time.

Katy Perry [born Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson on October 25th 1984 in Santa Barbara, California] is an American singer-songwriter and occasional actress. She is most notable for her singles, ‘Ur So Gay’, released in 2007, and the Billboard Hot 100 No.1 hit, ‘I Kissed A Girl’, which was released in 2008. She also was in the music video ‘Cupid’s Chokehold’ by Gym Class Heroes. Perry, born the middle child of two pastors, she grew up listening to gospel music and singing in church. After Steve Thomas and Jennifer Knapp signed Perry to their label, Red Hill Records, she released her first CD, Katy Hudson [2001], a Christian gospel album. In her teenage years, Perry found a Queen album with her friend, “and the heavens opened and saved me. From then on, they have been my biggest influence”. She has openly talked about her struggles within the music industry, such as being dropped from record labels for much of her early career. Her songs eventually captured the attention of Virgin Records CEO Jason Flom, who was the head of Capitol Music Group, and she signed to Capitol Music in early 2007. Perry is now regularly heard on MTV, VH1, as well as commercials.

‘One Of The Boys’ is the second album from Capitol Music Group recording artist, Katy Perry.
