No better way to kick off the week than with brand new Imagine Dragons music.

The alternative rock band premiered on Spotify on Monday (Jan. 26) a brand new song from their forthcoming sophomore album “Smoke + Mirrors”, in stores on February 17 via Interscope Records. Interesting they didn’t opt to do the typical “iTunes countdown” release or perhaps they’re just going to launch the song for digital purchase later on the week. Anyway, the new song ID just premiered is the opening track “Shots”. Stream it at the bottom of the page!

“Shots” song review

Not entirely “rock” but I like a lot. I just have to repeat it: “Smoke + Mirrors” is going to be such an eclectic album and I’m just super impressed at the courage Imagine Dragons are having to come up with a new sound(s) for their second album when second albums are supposed to be always ‘safe’ and a continuation of your sound in order to avoid the “flop second album syndrome”.

Shots” is a phenomenal uplifting record that speaks about struggling in life but fighting for a purpose. Dan Reynolds' vocals are amazing as usual, and that drum-y bridge is EVERYTHING. I seriously think this should be more than just a buzz single.
