REVIEW:
Leading off with the catchy radio hit, Radioactive, Imagine Dragons are in excellent radio-friendly form on this album. Though some of their melodies aren’t too distinctive, the band smartly balances Night Visions’ generally upbeat tone with slower-paced tracks (i.e. Tracks 4, 6, 9, and 11). Along with Radioactive, the album standouts are most likely It’s Time, Demons, and Every Night. For road trips, workouts, or just a work playlist, Night Visions provides solid ear candy.
PACKAGING:
The tracks are listed on the CD’s back cover. The booklet consists of a two-page spread portrait of the band; each track’s lyrics; and, separately, the track credits. The track running times aren’t included. The CD case is standard-issue.
BRIAN & ROSCOE’S OOD MOON RATING: 7½ Stars
