There are few artists as thrilling as Twenty One Pilots. Across their albums, they’ve cultivated a surreal, cinematic universe packed with secret codes and deep meaning. Surprisingly, it’s been three years since their last album, 2021’s Scaled and Icy.
From the success of such hits as ‘Chlorine,’ ‘Heathens,’ and ‘Stressed Out,’ the band has also amassed a super loyal fanbase, who’s been hard at work digging up the meaning behind various new clues and teasers.
With the release of a new song, the band gears up for their comeback album, a project titled Clancy. Twenty-One Pilots began teasing their new era many weeks ago and recently ramped up promo with the reveal of red tape on previous albums and a series of cryptic DEMA letters. Here is everything we know so far about the album.
