In the original version of this review, I did the same but it no longer exists, as I see no reason to have two reviews of the same album, with such similar content. Before posting this review, I checked over some of this album’s other reviews on this site, and found that somebody had drawn some excellent comparisons between this band, and Nickelback. “Ralph’s internal struggle for self-acceptance really resonated with us, and this song speaks to that.Allow me to preface this review by stating that I despise this band, or at least everything that they stand for, in regards to the impact that they’ve had on the music industry. “It’s a pretty timely movie in a lot of ways in that it addresses some of the issues of identity and loneliness unique to this internet generation,” Dan Reynolds said of the film.

In the movie, video-game bad guy Ralph struggles with his evolving friendship with fellow misfit Vanellope von Schweetz. At present, Imagine Dragons are the eighth most-listened-to artist globally on Spotify with over 40 million monthly listeners.Įlsewhere in Imagine Dragons news, the band also recently submitted their track ‘Zero’ for Rich Moore and Phil Johnston’s Ralph Breaks The Internet, which opens in US cinemas on 21 November. 3, and is now certified double platinum in the US.Įvolve was nominated for a Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album and spawned three huge hits: ‘Believer,’ ‘Thunder,’ which scored a Best Pop Duo/Group Performance Grammy nomination and ‘Whatever It Takes’.


Origins will be released 16 months after Imagine Dragons’ previous album, Evolve, which has been certified Gold in the UK and entered the chart at No. With the band artfully blending rock, hip-hop, pop, and folk, the album is etched in inventive textures that never distract from an essential element of Imagine Dragons: lyrics that speak to a sometimes-painful self-awareness, but ultimately uplift and inspire. Imagine Dragons joined forces with producers Joel Little (Lorde, Khalid), Mattman & Robin (Selena Gomez, Carly Rae Jepsen), and John Hill (Florence + The Machine) to sculpt the sound of Origins.
