    The arena-rock debut as engineering project: "Radioactive"'s dubstep thump and "Demons"'s grief-by-numbers became the unavoidable sound of early-2010s sports montages. Imagine Dragons write hooks like contractors — load-bearing, overbuilt, weatherproof. Resistance is understandable; the efficiency is still impressive.
