Led by Dan Reynolds, the group is often dismissed by critics for producing formulaic stadium rock, yet they continue to captivate millions, making them the most successful rock outfits of their generation
Imagine Dragons have just made a big splash with the release of their new concert film, Imagine Dragons: Live From The Hollywood Bowl. The film captures the energy of the four concerts the U.S. band performed last year in Los Angeles, accompanied by a symphony orchestra. And now they are embarking on the European leg of their Loom World Tour.
You’re trying to figure out if the band filling stadia is the “worst band ever?”
They have some bangers for sure. But since their songs are overused in ads, movies, social media I have started to feel annoyed by them.
My kids are obsessed with Imagine Dragons. Honestly it could be worse, but it could also definitely be better. They’re mostly just kind of there, although some of the songs definitely get grating when they’ve been played 200 times 😅
Somehow Stevie T’s video about making a song like Imagine Dragons came to my mind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkyHYD8VSeo
I found that a very difficult video to watch, the editting really grated on my nerves.
However, it is a pretty damn accurate breakdown of an imagine dragons song, and the end result is pretty good.
IMO Stevie T is best taken in very small doses.
