Imagine Dragons Unearth Hidden Gems for Smoke + Mirrors Anniversary Release

A decade after Smoke + Mirrors first soared to the top of the charts, Imagine Dragons are revisiting their landmark sophomore album with Reflections (from the Vault of Smoke + Mirrors)—a collection of 14 previously unreleased tracks set to drop on February 21, 2025.

This anniversary edition is more than just a nostalgia trip. It’s a deep dive into the creative vaults of a band that defined modern alt-rock in the 2010s. With Smoke + Mirrors having racked up over 7.8 billion streams and multi-platinum sales, it’s clear this era remains a fan favorite. The re-release will be available on digital platforms and as a striking ocean blue vinyl pressing, offering collectors and audiophiles something special.

Adding to the celebration, Imagine Dragons have teamed up once again with surrealist artist Tim Cantor, whose visionary artwork shaped the original album’s aesthetic. Cantor has reimagined the cover art for the anniversary release, and fans can experience his work firsthand at a gallery exhibition in San Diego on February 15. The deluxe Smoke + Mirrors Ten box set will also feature exclusive lithographs, along with a 3LP pressing that includes the newly revealed demos.

For longtime fans, this is a rare opportunity to explore the band’s creative process during one of their most pivotal eras. For newer listeners, it’s a reminder of how Smoke + Mirrors helped cement Imagine Dragons as a global powerhouse. With hidden gems, revamped artwork, and a deeper look into the band’s past, Reflections isn’t just a re-release—it’s a rediscovery.
