Imagine Dragons – has responded to the criticism the band have received for playing Israel and Azerbaijan.Last month, System Of A Down frontman Serj Tankian criticised the band for going ahead with their controversial gigs and shared that he has “zero respect for those guys”. The dispute came over a show that the Las Vegas band had plans for in the country’s capital city, Baku, which some perceived as being an endorsement of Azerbeijan’s authoritarian President Ilham Aliyev.Tankian had sent the group a letter last summer urging them to pull out of the Baku Olympic Stadium show.
