Indeed, the Las Vegas-based quartet had initially scrambled for all the attention they could get following the release of their independently-issued, self-titled debut EP in September 2009. The statistics are astounding, but they only tell a small part of the story, for Night Visions’ runaway success was by no means a given. Listen to the Imagine Dragons’ Night Visions 10th-anniversary edition now.
Released through Interscope/KIDinaKORNER on September 4, 2012, the album seemingly came from nowhere to peak at No.2 on the Billboard 200, while its multi-million-selling signature hit, “Radioactive,” set the band on course for superstardom. While it’s only natural for a band to harbor high hopes for their early offerings, the success of Imagine Dragons’ debut album, Night Visions, exceeded its creators’ wildest dreams.
