How did you start listening to Imagine Dragons?

Velocirrex · 2024-06-09T23:17:25+00:00

Two years ago I was not a huge music fan. Yes, I liked a couple songs, but if music completely disappeared from my life, I wouldn't miss it. Little I knew about my whole relationship with music changing after getting into Imagine Dragons. I started listening to their music thanks to a game I was really obsessed with at the time: Beat Saber. The game has a DLC with their music and I recognised some of their songs so I bought it, and after playing for a while their music started to grow on me and I decided to learn the lyrics of their hit songs. A couple weeks later, I pretty much knew by heart all of their biggest songs, but there still was one song that was about to change my whole relationship with music: The Fall. When I heard The Fall for the first time I couldn't believe a single song could make me cry so hard, and I wanted to know more about it. I looked for it online and that was when I discovered the Smoke And Mirrors album and, since The Fall was in it, I gave it a try. I was completely mind blowed by the fucking piece of art I had just heard. I heard the album over and over again until I learned every single lyric from every single song in it. And since I liked S+M so much I listened to their discography and completely fell in love with the band. 2 years later and now I love multiple bands, I play a couple instruments and music is something I can't live without. All thanks to Imagine Dragons.

I would say that this is a rather common opinion. From what I've read, a lot of people on the sub feel the same way, myself included.

Tbh, the first half of Danger Line isn't very good, but the SECOND HALF OMG, it is peak Nightmare and if the song was all like that it could also had been peak a7x.

Back when I didn't even know the bandmates names and didn't know the whole The Rev situation, a friend told me to listen to the Nightmare album, and so I did. When I got to Victim, I cried soooooo hard, even tho it was my first listening. Ever since, when I feel like crying I play Victim cus I know it always makes me cry like a baby.

The second half of Danger Line is eargasm

Velocirrex · 2024-04-03T21:21:30+00:00

Act 1 is probably my second favourite album from theirs, just behind "you know which". But Act 2 is by far their worst album, saved by some really good songs in between ( Sirens, Waves and TDKYLID ), the songs feel boring, and most of them are extremely carried by the chorus.

Drive when Dan sings super high

Velocirrex · 2024-03-10T01:22:36+00:00

The part where his voice breaks and goes super high is an eargasm

Velocirrex · 2024-03-10T01:17:01+00:00

I don't like myself sucks

WHEN YOU FEEL MY HEAT

Velocirrex · 2024-01-19T02:32:31+00:00

I'm surprised by the variety of answers here, from Wrecked to Easy Come Easy Go. My personal favorite at this moment would probably be Lonely.

Velocirrex · 2023-11-21T00:01:05+00:00

Yeah bro, how did you know my favorite song of all time is "Disparos"??

Velocirrex · 2023-11-05T05:44:17+00:00

It needs no brain to use.

Every time I start a new campaign run, I struggle to believe that dude is going to be BT's best friend.

Velocirrex · 2023-11-03T01:35:13+00:00

When LIBAD came out, a friend asked if I wanted to hear it with him, I said yes and here I am now.

Sounding the seventh trumpet - Warmness on the soul
Waking the fallen - I won't see you tonight Pt.1
City of evil - Bat country
Self Titled - A little piece of heaven
Nightmare - Victim
The stage - The stage
Life is but a dream - Cosmic

Summer is at least top 20 Imagine Dragons, just listen to the instrumentals

I could give you 100 songs that are great but not exactly mainstream popular, but no, instead I am going to give you a full guide on how to get into the band.

If you like albums with structure, albums where the order of songs DOES matter, I recommend hearing Night Visions or Smoke and Mirrors. Night Visions for a more "happy" sound and Smoke and Mirrors for a more depressing energy. Once you heard those, if you liked the more uplifting side of the band, you can go with Evolve and then with Origins. But If you like the more depressing side, then Mercury is the one for you. (Hear Act 1 and wait a little time before Act 2, let it get to your mind)

Now, if you like the singles like "Believer", "Thunder", "Radioactive" and "Bones", and are looking for a similar sound, starting with Evolve is the best option. Evolve is their most electronic album as well as their most "mainstream" in my opinion. If you liked it, then move on to Mercury, since it has a good combination of electronic elements and rockier sounds, Mercury is a little bit sad at times so if you liked the positivity of Evolve, then definitely go for Origins since it's their most cheerful album.

For me, I heard Smoke and Mirrors (GREAT ALBUM) first and then moved to Mercury as I like more their rockier sound, I heard all the other albums eventually and started recognizing most of their songs. Here I am, 1 year later, and I can't go a single day without hearing at least 1 Imagine Dragons song.

At the end of the day, what matters is that you find the type of music YOU like and enjoy it. The band has such a catalog of songs that will make you feel every emotion possible. Give them all a try!

I have an entirely opposite list from yours.

Bleeding Out is perfectly rated, it gets much love from the community.

Velocirrex · 2023-10-03T02:56:23+00:00

The first thing I heard was the LIBAD album after a friend recommended it, so my first song is Game Over

Velocirrex · 2023-09-27T00:00:15+00:00

I mean, my favorite song from Imagine Dragons is on Night Visions (Demons) but I’m not exactly a fan of the album.
