* EgocentricTeamNaming: The band is named after lead singer Chris Daughtry, {{justified|trope}} because it was easier to get started with the name recognition he had gained from his appearance on ''Series/AmericanIdol'' than it would have been if the band had chosen an obscure name[[https://tinyurl.com/MDB-Daughtry]].

* AfterTheEnd: "Artificial" takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where science has evolved enough to create android copies of humans.
* AIIsACrapshoot: [[https://consequence.net/2023/08/daughtry-new-single-artificial/ Chris says]] that "Artificial" is about the idea of humans being replaceable and A.I. becoming a nightmare; that the loss of the human touch means the loss of creativity, heart, and soul, and that the creative arts should be protected from it or risk being destroyed. The song as a whole paints ArtificialIntelligence as a killer of mankind that should be feared. The official music video shows Chris being studied in a lab and reveals that the scientists have built a {{cyborg}} copy of him. The first thing that the cyborg does is [[KillAndReplace kill]] Chris.
-->Welcome to your WORST NIGHTMARE\\
Days are getting dark, you should be scared\\
It doesn't have a heart, plug into the new you\\
Don't resist 'cause it's no use, it's no use\\
It's digital warfare\\
The death of who we are is right here\\
It's never gonna stop, plug into your new soul\\
Ice cold, mechanical, artificial



* {{Cyborg}}: The music video for "Artificial" shows that scientists built a cyborg-looking android version of Chris.



* KillAndReplace: The end of the video for "Artificial" shows Chris being killed by an android copy of him, with the android taking his place as the band's lead singer.

* RaisedLighterTribute:
** Referenced in their song "Long Live Rock & Roll"
---> "So throw your lighters up and darling sing with me tonight"
** {{Invoked|Trope}} by Chris himself at one concert where he told the audience to hold up their phones, lighters, or "whatever you got that lights up" while he played "Home". He jokingly refused to play the song until enough lights were up, instead singing the following to the tune of "Home":
---> I'm gonna need more phones\\
I'm gonna need more phones\\
I'm not gonna play this song until I get more phones\\
I'm talking to you right here I know you got more phones


Added DiffLines:
