Review: Imagine Dragons offer light at the end of the tunnel (SFGate)

“Act 1” in 2021 was all plucky strings, seething beats and grand electronic synths as lead singer, songwriter and lyricist Dan Reynolds poured heartache, ...

But don't sleep on “Sirens” and “I Don't Like Myself,” two mid-tempo, expertly crafted tunes that take the band in different directions. Take the eclectic, slightly deranged “I'm Happy,” a title that could never appear on “Act. 1,” with Reynolds singing “Even when I might fall down/I know my luck come back around.” The second volume of “Mercury” is upbeat, often Caribbean-spiced and throbbing.

Album: Imagine Dragons - Mercury - Act 2 (The Arts Desk)

The Vegas pop-rockers start brightly, but soon fade on their overlong sequel, review by Barney Harsent.

The downbeat moments fare less well, and Mercury – Act 2 is absolutely stuffed full of them. “There are times when I don’t like myself/I believe all the things that they say about me”, he sings on “I Don’t Like Myself”, showing the emotional vulnerability of a 15-year-old diarist, and the vocabulary to match.
