Imagine Dragons is an American pop rock band
from Las Vegas, Nevada, consisting of lead
singer Dan Reynolds,
guitarist Wayne Sermon, bassist
Ben McKee and
drummer Daniel Platzman. The
band first gained exposure with the release of their single "It's Time",
followed by their award-winning debut studio album Night Visions (2012), which resulted in the chart-topping singles "Radioactive"
and "Demons".
Rolling Stone named "Radioactive", which held the record for most weeks
charted on the Billboard Hot 100, the
"biggest rock hit of the year". MTV called them
"the year's biggest breakout band", and Billboard named them their "Breakthrough Band of 2013" and
"Biggest Band of 2017", and placed them at the top of their
"Year in Rock" rankings for 2013, 2017, and 2018. Imagine Dragons
topped the Billboard Year-End "Top Artists – Duo/Group" category in
2018.
The band's second studio album Smoke + Mirrors(2015)
reached number one in the US, Canada and the UK. This was followed by their
third studio album Ǝvolve(2017),
which resulted in three chart-topping singles, "Believer",
"Thunder",
and "Whatever It Takes",
also making them the artist with the most weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot Rock
Songs chart. The album reached the top five
in many countries. The band's fourth studio album Origins(2018)
featured the single "Natural",
which became their fifth song to top the Hot Rock Songs chart. Although all
four albums were commercially successful, critical reception was mixed. The band
released their fifth studio album Mercury – Act 1 on September 3, 2021.
Ǝvolve(stylized as ƎVOLVE) is the third studio album by
American pop rock band Imagine Dragons,
released on June 23, 2017, by Kidinakorner and Interscope Records.
After the release of their previous album Smoke + Mirrors(2015)
and its respective world tour, a self-imposed hiatus for 2016 and cryptic
messages from the band through their social media gained anticipation for their
third album; it was finally announced on May 9, 2017, along with the initiation
of its pre-order. In comparison to Smoke + Mirrors and their 2012 debut Night Visions,
frontman Dan Reynolds called the album an "evolution" for the band.
Ǝvolve
peaked at number 2 on the US Billboard 200,
and received mixed reviews from critics; some acknowledged the band's claim of
evolution, while others described it as lifeless and commercially oriented. It
was promoted with the singles "Believer",
"Thunder",
"Whatever It Takes",
and "Next to Me",
as well as a world tour produced
by Live Nation and supported with Grouplove and K. Flay that started in
September 2017. The album was also nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album at the 60th Annual
Grammy Awards.
Just a young gun with
a quick fuse
I was uptight, wanna let loose
I was dreaming of bigger things and
Wanna leave my own life behind
Not a "Yes sir", not a follower
Fit the box, fit the mold
Have a seat in the foyer, take a number
I was lightning before the thunder
Thunder, thunder
Thunder, thun-, thunder
Thun-thun-thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder, thun-, thunder
Thun-thun-thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the
thunder
Lightning and the thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning and the thunder
Thunder, thunder
Thunder
Kids were laughing in
my classes
While I was scheming for the masses
Who do you think you are?
Dreaming 'bout being a big star
They say, "You're basic", they say, "You're easy"
You're always riding in the backseat
Now I'm smiling from the stage while
You were clapping in the nosebleeds
Thunder, thunder,
thun-
Thunder, thun-thun-thunder
Thunder, thunder
Thunder, thun-, thunder
Thun-thun-thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the
thunder
Lightning and the thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning and the thunder
Thunder
Thunder, feel the
thunder
Lightning and the thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning and the thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning and the thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder (never give up, never give up)
Lightning and the thunder, thunder (never give up, never give up)
Thunder, feel the thunder (never give up, never give up)
Lightning and the thunder, thunder (never give up)
Thunder, thunder,
thun-
Thunder, thun-thun-thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder, thun-
Thunder, thun-thun-thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder, thun-
Thunder, thun-thun-thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder, thun-, thunder
Thun-thun-thunder, thunder.
