Imagine Dragons

I tried to avoid this band at all costs because I hated the name "imagine dragons". To me, it sounded childish and stupid. But something about the album art provoked me to check out the bands Continued Silence EP, and after one listen I was hooked. The band, hailing from Las Vegas, mix elements of Kings of Leon with moments of city-mates The Killers, Neon Trees, and modern day indie radio bands like fun., Walk The Moon, and Young The Giant. Their major label debut album, Night Visions, is due out September 4th. Below are my two favorite tracks from the EP, "Radioactive" (also heard on the Olympics) and the alt-radio jam "It's Time".
