         Night Visions is the debut studio album by American rock band, Imagine Dragons. Imagine Dragons consists of Ben McKee, Dan Reynolds, Wayne Sermon, and Dan Platzman. Night Visions was released last year, on September 4, 2012. It includes popular songs that have been featured in movies such as Radioactive which was used in the movie, The Host, based on the book written by Stephenie Meyer. And It's Time was used in the movie, The Perks of Being a Wallflower which is based on the book written by Stephen Chbosky. 
        Night Visions was recorded between November of 2011 and July of 2012 at Studio at the Palms and Battle Born Studios. There are a total of eleven songs on the album which have been written by many people such as band members: Ben McKee, Dan Reynolds, Wayne Sermon, and Dan Platzman. Other people who contributed include Alexander Grant who has written other songs by musicians such as Love the Way You Lie by Eminem featuring Rhianna, Airplanes by B.o.B featuring lead singer from Paramore Hayley Williams and Massive Attack by Nicki Minaj. 
        I absolutely enjoyed this album! Imagine Dragons is definitely a band I'm going to keep listening to because this album was just amazing! Some of my favorite songs from Night Visions, would include, Radioactive, It's Time, On Top of the World, and Bleeding Out are just some. 
       What I enjoyed about this album was that there are a variety of songs on this album. You have your upbeat songs and then you have your songs that are the opposite of the upbeat songs. Each song was never the same as another one or close to the same as another song on the album. Each song had its distinct sound and, to me, there was never a song that gave me the same message as another. 
       The lyrics is another reason why I enjoyed this album, they all had something I could just connect to and I could understand which is great to be able to relate to songs and be able to listen to them at the same time. 
       Overall, the songs were amazing and each person is going to have at least one song that they love because they try so many different sounds and try to convey different messages. If you haven't checked this band out yet, you really should. You could find your next favorite song! I give Night Visions by Imagine Dragons 5 out of 5 stars!
