Our first exposure to Grammy award winning rock band Imagine Dragons came during last year's The Game Awards. Still, while we couldn't name a single song by the group – and we're not being facetious here, we've honestly never heard of them – they're clearly big enough to headline the first 'Play with PlayStation' multiplayer gaming session. Can you taste the excitement?
According to the PlayStation Blog, if you play Destiny from 12:00PM until 14:00PM PST on 7th February, there's a good chance that you'll be matched up with the ensemble, as well as some Sony employees. The whole session will be streamed on Twitch, so don't worry if you can't make it – there'll even be an opportunity to win some CDs.
After all, Imagine Dragons supposedly record music which is then pressed onto discs and sold in stores for money. We've never heard any of it, but, er, that's what we're informed.

some songs by imagine dragons include
radioactive, demons and on top of the world.
I'm going to cry in a corner. Imagine Dragons are awesome.
@dreameater5 Thanks, I'll be sure to remember those for future reference.
How could you not name "On top of the world" it was in Fifa 13.
Radioactive was HUGE here in the states. It was on almost every commercial for a while. Look it up its epic
@Cowboysfan-22 OH! It's that band! I just played this on YouTube, and do recognise it.
@get2sammyb I wouldn't be surprised if that song is called a classic 20 or so years from now. I'll feel old when they do, but it definitely deserves the title
why not get a real band for PlayStation like Avenged Sevenfold or Metallica, imagine dragons i mean c'mon really
@Cowboysfan-22 "popular"? Yes. But a "classic"? Hell no. I'm not necessarily saying they're bad, but they're hardly "one of the greats" or anything like that. They just got lucky with some catchy big hits.
All the same, getting back on topic, this is a neat idea and it'd be interesting to see where they go with it. Give me a gaming session with Dave Grohl and Josh Homme and I'd be on it like a tramp on chips!
Alternative, indie, rock, pop, yuk.
@METALLICAFORLIFE A7X nah, something a little more comical like Gwar would be hilarious
@SteveButler2210 I didn't say the band would be classic, the song will be. It spent 87 weeks on the billboard charts. A lot of their songs are good but this one was on a totally different level
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi don't forget "hipster," the antithesis of artist.
@charlesnarles I'd put it to a vote on the blog or something, snark puppy, gwar or s club 7.
I think it would be hilarious to have Ozzy on my fire team during vault of glass. Communication would be a major issue, plus I think his hand eye coordination would be shot.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Yea, GWAR would be awesome. But ya can't have a GWAR show without Dave Brockie.. RIP
