The songs on NIGHT VISIONS are just a taste of what's to come from Imagine Dragons, who combine their synth-laden rock sound with the hip-hop sensibilities of producer, Alex Da Kid (Eminem, Rihanna). The alchemy that results when these creative forces get together is nothing short of explosive. Album Tracks 1. Radioactive 2. Tiptoe 3. It's Time 4. Demons 5. On Top of the World 6. Amsterdam 7. Hear Me 8. Every Night 9. Bleeding Out 10. Underdog 11. Nothing Left to Say/Rocks
