Imagine Dragons

Like their fellow Las Vegans the Killers, Imagine Dragons make impassioned pop-rock with plenty of synthesizers—but they’re actually more like the American Coldplay. It’s all there: songs that move from piano balladry to thumping choruses; portentously life-affirming lyrics; earnest, high-pitched vocals; clever-clever album artwork… Their debut album Night Visions came out arena-ready in 2012, and they’ll dip into it tonight alongside their newie, Smoke + Mirrors.
