So for Imagine Dragons to represent a fusion of these groups (in fact, the newer group has a connection to the fellow Vegas natives of The Killers, as Imagine Dragons recorded their earliest work at their predecessors’ studios in Sin City) means I…don’t really like them. I’ve written about the disappointing evolutions of the latter two ( here and here), and I’ve never really gotten U2. Of course, they were overplayed, and the whole work of the Las Vegas quartet fits into a mold of dismissible arena pop rock as defined by the likes of U2, Coldplay, and now, The Killers. But I do need to admit something: some of those first few big hits were catchy. And unlike, say, Maroon 5 ( who I’ve written about here), I can’t say I was ever a “fan” of Imagine Dragons. I should focus on the positive and artists whose work I really like. I didn’t need to put myself through this. As I prepared for this piece, I kept telling myself I could stop anytime.
