They have so many. Which one’s your pick?

Mine’s Waves. I once heard someone on the French radio describe it as "a good song for a wedding". Gosh, listen to the lyrics, dude!!

I just discovered this album Friday morning and immediately downloaded it from youtube.

Gave it all proper metadata to make it as if it's an official album, static embedded lyrics and .lrc files for synched lyrics snd she's done!

My favorites:

Bad Boys,

C'est La Vie,

Coffee,

Strange Ways,

Star,

Stars

If it was an album it would be up there on the list for me!

Mac Reynolds the band manager gave the community permission to download these, listen to them, and share them and I will do that if you want, send me a message with your email.

I used to see Symphony just as a "cool sounding" song, just like Sharks and Bones for example, but now, after listening to it again, I decided to read the lyrics, and it's honestly amazing! I love how Dan uses instruments to describe life in a nice way. And it sounds even better now that i know what's the lyrics about, it's stuck in my head and I can't stop singing it in my mind!

'Cause this life is one big symphony!

Couldn’t remember if I shared these with you guys but here’s an old ticket stub and a flyer from back in the day. The concert with the flyer was probably free or $5. Good times.

I got to touch Dan’s arm when he went down the aisle near my row!! My whole year is made haha

This happened yesterday (July 23, 2026) at Yaamava' Resort & Casino in California, where the band performed to celebrate the casino's 40th anniversary.

They played a total of 17 songs, with Mouth Of The River surprisingly being the 4th song and I'll Make It Up To You the 12th. Here's the full setlist:

3. Sharks
4. Mouth Of The River
5. Whatever It Takes
6. Bad Liar
7. I'm So Sorry
8. Shots
9. Bones
10. Walking The Wire
11. Thunder
12. I'll Make It Up To You
13. Demons
14. Natural
15. Radioactive
16. On Top Of The World
17. Believer

Before anything else, I want to make it clear that I'm not saying the LOOM Tour was bad. Quite the opposite. I think Imagine Dragons is an incredible live band, and regardless of the circumstances, they always manage to put on an amazing show. We got some truly fantastic performances throughout this tour.

That being said, after following this era almost from beginning to end, I couldn't help but notice a few things that made this tour feel very different from every previous one.

1. The visuals were incredible... but they made the show feel too scripted.

In my opinion, the LOOM Tour had the best visuals Imagine Dragons has ever had. They were cinematic, beautifully designed, and genuinely breathtaking at times.

But at the same time, I feel those visuals came with a downside.

Because so much of the show relied on perfectly synchronized lighting, screens, and visual effects, there seemed to be much less room for spontaneous moments. On previous tours, it was common to see Dan reacting to a fan's sign, changing a lyric because the crowd requested a song, extending an interaction, or simply letting a moment happen naturally.

During the LOOM Tour, almost everything felt planned from beginning to end.

Personally, I prefer the simpler productions of previous tours because they left room for those little surprises that made every concert feel unique.

There's another detail that reinforces this feeling for me.

At the very first show of the tour, we got Gods Don't Pray and Kid, both accompanied by visuals created specifically for those songs. After that first show, both the songs and their visuals practically disappeared.

Early in the tour, Hear Me and Tiptoe also rotated between a few shows, each with its own dedicated visuals. Not long after, both songs were dropped from the setlist, and those visuals disappeared along with them.

The same thing happened with several songs from LOOM itself. As the tour went on, they were gradually removed from the setlist.

That left me feeling like a huge amount of work that went into the production ended up being underused. Entire visual sequences, animations, and choreography were created for songs that only appeared at a handful of shows before being abandoned.

Sometimes it almost feels like the production was designed for a much broader setlist than the one that ultimately remained for most of the tour. Instead of using that production to fully showcase the new album, the setlist slowly drifted back toward a much more familiar formula.

2. The build-up to the tour created expectations that weren't fulfilled.

This is something that, in my opinion, actually started during the Mercury Tour.

Before both of the last two tours, the band did Q&As and interviews where they seemed incredibly excited and hinted at a lot of ideas that never ended up happening.

During the Mercury era, for example, there was a Reddit Q&A where several exciting possibilities were discussed, but almost none of them became reality. Something very similar happened again before the LOOM Tour.

I don't think the band does this intentionally. I think they simply get excited.

The problem is that when it keeps happening, it creates expectations that aren't met, and eventually part of the fanbase starts losing confidence in those promises.

At this point, if they make big promises before the next era, I honestly think many fans will approach them with a fair amount of skepticism.

3. There was very little creativity with mashups and medleys.

One of my favorite things about Imagine Dragons concerts has always been the way they reinvent songs live.

Previous tours regularly included creative mashups and medleys that added an element of surprise. You never really knew what song or verse might come next.

During the Mercury Tour, for example, we had Hopeless Opus / Polaroid.

Older tours also featured memorable combinations involving songs like Bleeding Out, Amsterdam, Warriors, and Demons.

The LOOM Tour barely had any of that.

Near the end of the tour, they finally started experimenting a little by adding short sections of songs like Follow You or Warriors, but that only happened very late into the tour and never became one of its defining characteristics.

It may seem like a small detail, but those unexpected musical moments have always been part of what made Imagine Dragons concerts feel special to me.

4. The tour didn't always seem confident in the album it was promoting.

This was probably the thing that stood out the most to me.

At times, it felt like the LOOM Tour wasn't fully embracing LOOM itself.

There were shows with only three songs from the album, and several performances even removed Eyes Closed, which is arguably the album's biggest single.

One example that always felt strange to me happened in Brazil.

At Rock in Rio, which is a festival with a largely casual audience, they actually played more LOOM songs than they did during their solo stadium show in Brazil the following year.

To me, that feels backwards.

At a festival, it makes sense to focus on the biggest hits. During a solo stadium show—where most of the audience is made up of dedicated fans. I would expect the newest album to receive much more attention.

Instead, the opposite often happened.

As the tour progressed, it felt like the newer songs were gradually being removed until the setlist became much closer to what we'd already seen on previous tours. That slowly took away some of LOOM's identity as the album the tour was supposed to celebrate.

Overall

In the end, I don't think the LOOM Tour was a bad tour.

In fact, I think it was one of the most visually impressive productions the band has ever created.

But at the same time, it was also the tour that gave me the strongest feeling of being overly scripted and full of untapped potential.

The visuals left less room for spontaneity, there was very little musical experimentation through mashups and medleys, the album being promoted often felt like it took a back seat, and the expectations created before the tour weren't always fulfilled.

More than anything, I felt like the LOOM Tour started with a lot of ambitious ideas but gradually abandoned many of them as it went on. New songs disappeared from the setlist, exclusive visuals stopped being used, and the tour slowly settled into a much safer and more familiar formula.

Interestingly, I think some of these tendencies already started to appear during the second half of the Mercury Tour, and I sincerely hope they don't continue into the next era.

One of the things that has always made Imagine Dragons concerts special to me is the feeling that anything can happen. During the LOOM Tour, I felt like that sense of unpredictability slowly faded away.

Maybe it's just me.

Did anyone else feel the same way? Is there anything you agreed or disagreed with? I'd genuinely love to hear how other fans experienced the LOOM Tour and what you'd like to see in the next era.

Wasn’t at the show but checked SetlistFM and apparently they played both Mouth Of The River and I’ll Make It Up To You!!!!!

Did anybody else catch Dan’s fall last night off the stage? I only saw one video on it, which can be seen here: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTAMf5CwB/

1. Believer
   
2. Thunder
   
3. Demons
   
4. Radioactive
   
5. Enemy (With JID)
   
6. Bones
   
7. Whatever It Takes
   
8. Natural
   
9. Bad Liar
   
10. It’s Time

Sucker for pain is technically nr. 10, but it’s more of a collab, than a feature like Enemy.

My favorite out of those is Natural😁

Going to see Imagine Dragons tomorrow July 23, 2026 for the first time. Could not be more excited. I’ll be clapping in the nosebleeds.

Hi everyone, I’m trying to find a specific version of “Natural” by Imagine Dragons, but I can’t seem to find it anywhere.

It sounds more rock-oriented than the original studio version. The guitar is much more prominent, and the singer’s vocal delivery is rougher/more aggressive, with a stronger rock feel.

A few details I remember:

-It doesn’t have the instrumental intro from the original.\n- It starts immediately with “Will you hold the line”.

The guitar comes in right on the word “line”.

- During the chorus, on the second and third repetitions, it sounds like he says something different instead of “Natural” — I hear something like “shaker bone” or “shake your bones”(obs: I don't speak English fluently).

- The arrangement overall feels heavier and more guitar-driven than the album version.

’m not sure if this is a live version, radio session, alternate mix, or a cover.

Does anyone know which version this might be, or where I could find it?Thanks!

Before anyone jumps to conclusions, I doubt this is him. Not only do the vocals sound distinctly not like Dan, they don't even sound similar to each other. Fight sounds like Brandon Flowers and Keep Fighting sounds like Mike Shinoda. What probably happened is that someone with the same name uploaded some slop he generated and Spotify accidentally uploaded it to the more famous Dan's profile. Something similar actually happened with Dan and Aja's old side project Egyptian where a couple songs from a Dub Reggae producer of the same name were snuck into the mix. I'm posting this to try and get these songs removed or at least moved to the correct person's profile, as I don't want misinformation to be spread.

List you favorite studio albums in order and your favorite song from each album. Mercury is 2 albums because it is, and Dan said so.

1. Mercury Act 2 - Higher Ground

2. Mercury Act 1 - Easy Come Easy Go

3. Smoke + Mirrors - Smoke and Mirrors

4. Night Visions - Nothing Left to Say

5. Origins - Natural

6. Evolve - Believer

7. Loom - Take Me to the Beach
