Imagine Dragons sign major label record deal with Interscope Records and KIDinaKORNER

The title track of Imagine Dragons' recent EP It's Time describes the current state of the band perfectly as they officially announce they have signed a joint deal with Interscope Records and KIDinaKORNER.

The agreement finds Imagine Dragons, known for their pop-sensibility and stadium-worthy anthemic tunes, under the roof of one of the largest, most affluent record labels to date and partnered beside one of the most sought after producers, Alex Da Kid. 

"Words can't describe how excited we are to be a part of the Interscope family and how grateful we are to our fans who have danced the nights away with us and have shouted out every lyric to every song over the years," said frontman Dan Reynolds.

The band is also looking forward to working with Alex in the studio on the band's first full-length album to be released in 2012. Reynolds continued, "Being able to work with Alex has really pushed all of us to think more outside of the box and really grow as artists and songwriters. It's incredible."

Alex has worked on some of today's biggest hit songs including, "Airplanes," a collaboration with B.o.B. and Paramore's Hayley Williams and Eminem and Rhianna's "Love The Way You Lie," among many others. Earlier this year, Alex took home a "Best Rap Album"  Grammy for Eminem's 2010 release Recovery and the Alex Da Kid composed song  "Rise Above 1" from the Broadway production of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark was performed by Bono, The Edge and Reeve Carney on the season finale of American Idol.
