iTunes Session

Imagine Dragons begins this exclusive live session with an acoustic recasting of the two singles that put them on the map, “It’s Time” and “Radioactive.” And while these alone make a satisfying offering for fans of the band’s multi-platinum debut, *Night Visions*, the most exciting material comes at the end, when the Las Vegas group delivers a pair of yet-unreleased tracks: a delicate, harmony-rich ballad, “30 Lives,” and a spirited, uptempo sing-along, “Destination.” Regardless of whether the songs are familiar or new, the stripped-down accompaniment of acoustic guitar, mandolin, and strings has the casual feel of a living room jam session, allowing an intimate perspective into Imagine Dragons’ songwriting.

Though Imagine Dragons fully unleashed their massive pop sound on the world with their debut full-length Night Visions in 2012, the group returned to deliver a more stripped-down take on their sound with their iTunes Session EP.
