The expanded physical formats will celebrate the album with a 2LP release donning the original cover art in addition to a 10th-anniversary cover art lithograph. The seven-time platinum album featured five promotional singles, including “Hear Me” and “On Top of The World,” but most notably “It’s Time,” “Radioactive,” and “Demons.” Night Visions (Super Deluxe Edition) holds four CDs – including the original album, bonus tracks, live recordings, and remixes – in addition to the DVD The Making of Night Visions, which follows the Las Vegas band as they create their first record that would cement them as key players in pop and alternative rock. Night Visions (Expanded Edition) is set for release on September 9 via Interscope/KIDinaKORNER in physical and deluxe formats. Album DescriptionA decade after the arrival of their acclaimed debut album Night Visions, Grammy Award-winning band Imagine Dragons are set to release an expanded edition of the career-defining record featuring nine additional studio tracks and two previously unreleased demos.

What this means is that even though Imagine Dragons might have skipped a few steps along the way to their arena sound, Night Visions is still an album that, at least for a few minutes at a time, will make everyday life seem just a little bit bigger. Despite this, "Every Night" will certainly have some listeners unconsciously reaching for a lighter to wave in the air before they realize what they're doing, and it's exactly these kinds of surface pleasures that we turn to pop music for in the first place. The problem is, while the band's electronically reinforced sound is definitely big, it sometimes feels as though it lacks depth. While a move like this might seem overly ambitious for a freshman band, Imagine Dragons are able to pull the sound off, with songs like the already ubiquitous, seemingly soundtrack-ready "It's Time" having no trouble worming their way into whatever part of the brain it is that likes to trap songs against listeners' will. Dramatic and sweeping, the Las Vegas band works in the same vein as pop giants Coldplay, offering up track after track of hooky and emotional midtempo jams.
However, on their debut album, Imagine Dragons buck tradition and swing straight for the cheap seats, doing away with generations of sonic evolution in favor of the huge, arena-made sound of Night Visions. Things will start small and gritty, and then as the fame and crowds build, the sound changes to match the massiveness of the venues. Historically, there's a progression that bands usually follow before their sound goes full-on arena rock. Purchase and download this album in a wide variety of formats depending on your needs.
