Imagine Dragons, while working on their latest album "Smoke+Mirrors", starts releasing singles to gives out ideas of what the album might be like... and one of the latest has been released, "Shots".
Comparing to the previous single, "Gold", I must say this one is weaker but surprisingly unique in terms of vocals and music style. I'm still unsure about how the album might turn out to be, but I'll be honest, it will be a huge change from their biggest hit, "Night Visions". This single, in my opinion, is probably one of their experimental tracks to try out different music styles. Not to mention the vocal plays in this song is actually pretty fun to listen, but this change might turn some of their fans away, and it would be bad for them obviously. Nonetheless, we'll just have to wait for the album to come out before totally judging their overall works.

The song isn't on iTunes yet, but will soon be. In the mean time, share some of your thoughts of the latest song in the comments!

After success over Radioactive, Imagine Dragon sure earned their name. Now, they JUST released their second single for their next upcoming album, "Smoke + Mirror".
Here their second single for their upcoming album via this official audio...
This is one song that might be "gold" itself. However, this doesn't sound like the usual Imagine Dragons I used to listen. The music is kind of like a roller coaster, with sudden upbeats and soft-mid tempo music, making the song sounding like an "anthem" for their next album. I'm not quite sure if this song might become their next hit, but it sounds pretty promising for their upcoming album, not to mention, their previous single, "I Bet My Life", was surprisingly addicting.
Haven't order their upcoming album yet?
