Imagine Dragons have become the first band to achieve three number one singles from the same record on the Billboard Hot Rock Songs Chart.

After “Whatever It Takes” rose to number one on the chart, which measures the most popular tracks from across the U.S, Billboard announced that Imagine Dragons are the only group to have managed a trio of number one singles on the chart off the same record.

The only other bands who have come close to managing the same record are Linkin Park, Foo Fighters and Twenty One Pilots.

The other songs from the bands latest record Evolve, which reached number one on the chart, are “Believer,” which rose to number one last year and stayed there for 29-weeks, as well as “Heathens,” which stood there for 30 weeks.

Imagine Dragons also boast the record for the most number one hits on the chart after “Radioactive” first rose to number one in 2013.
