I haven't listened to them much, so no. Just a few of the early albums I came across. You seem to know them very well?

I'll just say one thing:

There is one song in particular, that I always found extremely moving. "I bet my life". I don't think it's overt, but the lyrics map 100% onto the experience of a sinful person being saved and rescued by Christ.

I don't know much about them, though.

Listening to those songs you listed, I think there are other ways to interpret the songs. Yours seems to be a particularly negative interpretation. There's adrenaline, but how is that adrenochrome?

Working onto something that I'm proud of, out of the box
An epoxy to the world and the vision we've lost
I'm an apostrophe
I'm just a symbol to remind you that there's more to see
I'm just a product of the system, a catastrophe
And yet a masterpiece, and yet I'm half-diseased
And when I am deceased
At least I go down to the grave and die happily
Leave the body and my soul to be a part of thee
I do what it takes

"An epoxy to the world and the vision we've lost."

Someone that helps the world connect and wake up to how far we've fallen away.

The lyrics could very easily be describing his own flawed state and yet, by striving nonetheless to make something out of it and serve the world, he can "leave the body and my soul to be a part of thee, I do what it takes" aka die with a good conscience when he finally meets his maker.

Not as advocating something, but as describing something. Artists will often portray or describe a thing in order to give a message. I mean, did Mozart intend to inspire people to be like Don Giovanni, when he depicted Don Giovanni as being dragged into hell?

I see so much literal and actual demonic stuff in the music world out there, but I don't get that vibe from imagine dragons. Maybe it just depends on how you interpret the words. Some people look at DJT and see nothing but evil....

Every time I hear that song, I relive the experience of dedicating my whole life to God and Christ.

I don't know much about them, though. I know some of them have a mormon background.

That said, maybe they sold their souls for fame and fortune. As someone said, you don't get far in that MS without being owned.

But... you seem particular bitter or agitated about them. Have you had some person experience that makes them such an issue for you?
