I think melodically it sounds not unlike a Coldplay tune.

I heard a tiny bit of one song this morning, it was pretty dull, I thought they were suppose to be a "rock band"?

People embrace the post-apocalypse these days. Also, prison dramas. And mediocrity.

This is the thread where we never listen to Imagine Dragons
^ this song (Anna Kendrick's Cups, not imagine dragons, obvs) is being taught in our nation's schools. My 4th-grader brought it home with him and this is the rhythm that's been driving our weekend.

"Imagine Dragons tie a vaunted Billboard Hot 100 record this week, as "Radioactive" logs its 76th week on the survey. The sum ties the mark established by Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours" in 2008-09."

despite my best efforts, i've heard this band before. it's pretty grim, this nu-grunge.

not a fan of them but shit like "Although the audience was young, the amount of children present proves that the average Imagine Dragons fan is an enlightened and advanced being -- as this is a serious band of serious musicians, most certainly only capable of being understood by adult intellectuals" come on

i can't remember what song these guys do and what songs monsters and men do but they are all slightly post-apocalyptic sounding chanty anthemic things. when I turn on the radio these days it's like being at a nazi rally there's so much chanting and shit going on. there I said it.

it's like, write an alternative rock radio hit in two minutes: chant chant chant whistle whistle whistle chant chant chant whistle wee wee

should I write songs like this? maybe I would sell more than five records if I did.
