The Norwegian progressive rock band Maraton pointed out that the cover image for their single "Blood Music" is the same as Imagine Dragons’ cover image for "Bad Liar", with only the coloration being different. Maraton's single was released in February 2018, while Imagine Dragons’ song dropped nine months later in November 2018. Despite the undeniable shared artwork, Maraton released a statement revealing they had purchased the artwork from the artist Beeple, but had no deal giving them exclusive rights to the photo.[4][5][6][7]
Idolator called the song a "brutally honest breakup anthem", and described it as "raw and stripped back".[8] Billboard compared the song's lyrical heaviness to the band's track "Demons".[9]
