Evolve shows them becoming more experimental and having fun within the niche they have created for themselves. Natalie:В I think EvolveВ showcases Imagine Dragons doing what they do best creating uplifting rock anthems that manage to be explosive yet radio friendly. Passing note, I also noticed a lot of indie rock influence, where вЂњYesterdayвЂќ sounded quite like something Bleachers may have created. It feels personal, it feels raw but in a logically constructed manner, it honestly feels like a testament to who theyвЂ™ve become now and the journey that brought them to this point. I think the album is very true to the journey of the men behind itвЂ“ men who have made sense of their suffering (individual and collective) and arrived at a point in their journey where they can really let go and soar, just as many of their songs do. It has shifted from somewhere dismal, tough and self-doubting to somewhere brighter and more reassuring as if some footing has finally been found.ДЄ lot of times what happens with a second or third album is that an artist seems to lose touch with who they are or what theyвЂ™ve wanted to make but Imagine Dragons created some really peppy, soaring (powerful, even) tracks for our blessed summer mornings when things can be at their worst and the band has not lost track of who they are or what they want to create for us. For anybody really, I think EvolveВ can very easily be seen and understood as an album that is coming from a different headspace altogether. I think EvolveВ does become a representation of the bandвЂ™s evolution and growth that keeps their identity intact but allows for the differences to filter through. Going in, I kept a few of their interview comments in mind about why this album sounds so different from Smoke + Mirrors, about where itвЂ™s coming from and what kind of music theyвЂ™ve aimed at making. Urooj:В I do believe it strengthens their repertoire.

The album is a new, cohesive sound and one that I think will be well-received by their loyal fan base. Evolve combines the catchy aspect with more alternative, pop-sounding melodies. While they had pop hits, Night VisionsВ and Smoke + MirrorsВ were both mainly filled with hard rock riffs and arena rock melodies. Lawrence: I think Evolve does strengthen their repertoire because the sound is very different than their past albums. Do you believe Evolve strengthens Imagine DragonsвЂ™ repertoire? Why or why not? Featured here are Watts, Urooj Ali Rizvi, Natalie Harmsen, and Mitch Mosk
