Nine Weeks till BIFF

Alexie Davis pointed us to this week's pick for the musical countdown: Radioactive by the Imagine Dragons (Off their Continued Silence EP recording).

An
Indie rock band, Imagine Dragons first appeared in the local music scene of Provo, Utah. By 2009, they were based in Las Vegas, NV and made their first studio recordings there - - released in the following year. In Nov. 2011, Imagine Dragons signed a contract with Interscope Records leading to their first extended play recording being released on Valentine's Day in 2012 - - it included our current pick, Radioactive.



Waking up to ash and dust,

I wipe my brow but I sweat my rust,
Breathing in, the chemicals. Aahh - ahhhhhh.
Breaking in, shaping up, but I'm checking out on the prison bus.
This is it, the apocalypse. Woa-oh.

I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones.
Love to make my systems go.
Welcome to the new age, to the new age.
Welcome to the new age, to the new age.
Whoa-uh-oh. Whoa-uh-oh. Radioactive. Radioactive.
Whoa-uh-oh. Whoa-uh-oh. Radioactive. Radioactive.

Raise my flags, don my clothes,
It's a 'cupolution' I composed.
We'll paint it red, to fit right in. Woa-oh.
Breaking in, shaping up, and I'm checking out on a prison bus.
This is it, the apocalypse. Woa-oh.

I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones.
Love to make my systems go.
Welcome to the new age, to a new age.
Welcome to the new age, to the new age.
Whoa-uh-oh. Whoa-uh-oh. Radioactive. Radioactive.
Whoa-uh-oh. Whoa-uh-oh.h. Radioactive. Radioactive.

All systems go, sun hasn't died.
Deep in my bones, straight from inside.

I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones.
Love to make my systems go.
Welcome to the new age, to the new age.
Welcome to the new age, to the new age.
Whoa-uh-oh. Whoa-uh-oh. Radioactive. Radioactive.
Whoa-uh-oh. Whoa-uh-oh. Radioactive. Radioactive.
