Evolve (Imagine Dragons album)

In February 2016, after the success of their second album Smoke + Mirrors and a ten month long world tour, the members of Imagine Dragons vowed to take time off from the band. In an interview with Billboard, lead singer Dan Reynolds stated that the group would be on hiatus for the remainder of the year, explaining "We [Imagine Dragons] haven't stopped in, like, six years, so we've forced ourselves to at least take a year off."{{cite magazine|url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/6889355/imagine-dragons-concert-documentary-exclusive|title=Imagine Dragons Shares Exclusive Clip From Concert Film: Watch It Here|date=February 23, 2016|magazine=Billboard|access-date=May 8, 2017|author=Gary Graff}} Throughout 2016, the band contributed songs to the soundtracks for Me Before You, Suicide Squad and Passengers, as well as playing at several shows.

The band first began preparing their third album on September 13, 2016, with a picture of guitarist Wayne Sermon in the band's recording studio and continued releasing cryptic messages over the next four months. On January 24, 2017, the band tweeted "goodnight +",{{Cite news|url=https://twitter.com/Imaginedragons/status/824044833249427456|title=Imagine Dragons on Twitter|work=Twitter|access-date=May 8, 2017}} effectively ending the Smoke + Mirrors album cycle.

Reynolds had noted that the album, compared to Night Visions and Smoke + Mirrors, is "an evolution for Imagine Dragons".{{Cite news|url=http://abcnewsradioonline.com/music-news/2017/1/3/imagine-dragons-next-album-will-be-an-evolution-says-dan-rey.html|title=Imagine Dragons' Next Album Will Be an "Evolution," Says Dan Reynolds|date=3 January 2017|work=ABC News Radio|access-date=9 May 2017|publisher=ABC Radio|archive-date=10 July 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170710174635/http://abcnewsradioonline.com/music-news/2017/1/3/imagine-dragons-next-album-will-be-an-evolution-says-dan-rey.html|url-status=dead}} The album's sound has been described as pop rock, electronic,{{Cite web|title=/|url=https://dailytrojan.com/2017/06/27/review-imagine-dragons-experiments-new-sounds-evolve/|access-date=2020-12-15|website=The Music|date=27 June 2017|language=en}} pop{{Cite web|last=Pham|first=Allen|date=2017-06-27|title=REVIEW: Imagine Dragons experiments with new sounds in Evolve|url=https://dailytrojan.com/2017/06/27/review-imagine-dragons-experiments-new-sounds-evolve/|access-date=2020-12-15|website=Daily Trojan|language=en-US}} and EDM{{Cite web|last=Media|first=ReFrame|date=2020-12-14|title=The Sneaky Simulation of Imagine Dragons' Evolve|url=https://thinkchristian.reframemedia.com/the-sneaky-simulation-of-imagine-dragons-evolve|access-date=2020-12-15|website=Think Christian|language=en}} while containing elements of R&B and hip hop.{{cite web|url=https://www.newsday.com/entertainment/music/evolve-review-imagine-dragons-blur-boundaries-of-rock-and-pop-again-t34293|title='Evolve' review: Imagine Dragons blur boundaries of rock and pop, again|work=Newsday|last=Gamboa|first=Glenn|date=June 22, 2017|access-date=March 2, 2025}}

In the months leading up to the album's release, Imagine Dragons used the caption "ƎE" in multiple social media posts. The group announced the title of their third album on May 8, and started the album pre-order along with the release of "Whatever It Takes" at 9 pm PT.

Starting on January 28, 2017, the band tweeted a series of four videos to tease the album's first single. The time-lapse videos featured lead singer Dan Reynolds drawing surreal images on a drawing pad. Morse code was hidden in the videos and translated to "objects of same color". On February 1, 2017, "Believer" was released as the lead single. To promote the single, it was used in a Super Bowl LI commercial for the Nintendo Switch. It was also used in the trailer for the 2017 film Murder on the Orient Express. The song peaked at number four on the Billboard Hot 100.{{cite magazine|url=http://www.billboard.com/artist/303738/imagine-dragons/chart?f=379|title=Imagine Dragons – Chart history (Billboard Hot 100)|magazine=Billboard|access-date=May 27, 2017}} Its music video starring Reynolds and actor Dolph Lundgren was released on March 7, 2017.{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wtfhZwyrcc|title=Imagine Dragons - Believer|last=ImagineDragonsVEVO|website=YouTube|date=March 7, 2017|access-date=May 8, 2017}}

Evolve received mixed reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 47, based on 7 reviews, which indicates "mixed or average reviews". The album received a few positive-leaning reviews. Glenn Gamboa from Newsday gave the album a score of B+, stating that the group, "seem ready to transcend genre labels—they just want to make good music that interests them." In a three-out-of-five-star review from NME, Alex Flood wrote, "This latest effort might represent a small progression, but it's far from an evolution." AllMusic also gave a three-out-of-five review on the album, with Stephen Thomas Erlewine saying, "its bold, colorful textures elbow aside any notions of introspection or reflection." Rob Harvilla from The Ringer gave the album a mixed review, concluding: "All of which is to say that Evolve isn't great by any means, but it's awfully shrewd, and you might end up rooting for it if only because there's nobody else to root for. It's probably the band's best album: It is definitely their slickest, their deftest, their shortest."{{cite web |url=https://www.theringer.com/2017/6/23/16044442/imagine-dragons-evolve-murder-on-the-orient-express-6ff3de79ce31 |title=It is Time to Talk About Imagine Dragons |date=23 June 2017}}

The album also garnered some negative reviews. In a more negative review, Classic Rock Magazine gave the album one and a half stars out of five, commenting that the band aims for more rock noise, although, "it [Evolve] just comes off like Michael Bolton dad dancing to Justin Timberlake at a family wedding."{{cite web|last1=Johnston|first1=Emma|title=Imagine Dragons - Evolve album review|url=http://teamrock.com/review/2017-06-14/imagine-dragons-evolve-album-review|website=Classic Rock Magazine|date=14 June 2017 |publisher=Future Publishing Limited|access-date=1 January 2018}} Hannah J. Davies of The Guardian gave the album two stars out of five, calling the album, "lifeless electronic-tinged arena rock." The Independent gave Evolve two-out-of-five stars, describing it as, "mostly devolving back into the hoariest of tired rock cliches (including what sounds like roto-toms), and plodding grimly towards the summer’s festivals."

On Metacritic, Evolve is one of the lowest ranking albums of 2017.{{cite web|title=Album Releases by Score|url=http://www.metacritic.com/browse/albums/score/metascore/year/all?sort=desc&year_selected=2017&page=12|publisher=Metacritic|access-date=1 January 2018}}
