The era-ending Twenty One Pilots album Clancy is dragging out its grand finale just a little bit longer, but lead singer Tyler Joseph promises it’s for a good reason. The album, a conclusion to the duo’s multi-album arc that started with Blurryface in 2015, was originally schedule to arrive on May 17. It has now been delayed for one week while he completes music videos for each song with drummer Josh Dun and videographer Mark Eshleman.

Twenty One Pilots have shared the second song, “Next Semester,” from their upcoming album, Clancy, out May 17.
“Next Semester” is a restless blast of power-punk about wanting to begin again while still contending with what’s in the past. The song’s chorus centers around an inescapable memory, as Tyler Joseph sings: “I remember, I remember certain things/What I was wearing, the yellow dashes in the street/I prayed those lights would take me home/Then I heard, ‘Hey kid, get out of the road!’”

Switchfoot continues rolling out the deluxe edition of The Beautiful Letdown (Our Version) with a cover of the album’s title-track by the Jonas Brothers. Switchfoot released a re-recorded take on their hit 2003 album earlier this year.
The Jonas Brothers’ take on “The Beautiful Letdown” is very faithful, with Nick and Joe delivering the song in their distinctly angelic vocals. They’re a perfect fit for this track, likely because of their long fandom of Switchfoot and this particular album.

On her new album Queen of Me, Shania Twain doesn’t sound like the same person who was once so on top she could playfully feign indifference toward Brad Pitt’s movie-star looks in “That Don’t Impress Me Much.” At the time, she could do no wrong, having become a global star and brought country music forward into a new era with arena-rock attitude, sex appeal, and hooks to match. But as her long-awaited 2017 album Now demonstrated, Twain’s voice, affected by illness and slowly rehabilitated, has changed — it...

Grammy Award-winning country music artiste Shania Twain released her new album, “Queen of Me” on Friday. The record is a limitless expression of pop that allows it to sit comfortably next to her many chart successors, enshrining it as an upbeat, playful, and joyous album.
The album is sonically inspired by ’70s and ’80s funk and rock – just like the sounds she grew up with and considered her heroes. It’s a departure from the past and a strident step into an ever-improving future.
The album consists of 12 new tracks. In the stand-out friendship anthem “Best Friend’, Shania affectionately gushes over her closest confidant as she emphasises “you always take the blame and you know I’d do the same for you. No matter what, yeah I got you, and I know that you got me.”
The LP represents a deep and dynamic creative statement from this iconic voice – from the energetic opener “Giddy Up!

Shania says, the saying “Let’s Go Girls!” is such a wonderfully uplifting sentiment now, but it’s just something I said during the recording in the studio and I guess that’s the same for Giddy Up!

Twenty One Pilots deliver a slightly stripped-down rendition of “Stressed Out” in this exclusive preview of the duo’s surprise new MTV Unplugged performance, airing tonight, June 9, on MTV.
The concert — filmed in Los Angeles — deviates from the acoustic-only mandate of previous Unplugged shows but still manages to capture the intimacy of those lower-key performances as compared to the duo’s bombastic arena concerts. As MTV says of the Twenty One Pilots’ gig, “This is MTV’s most plugged Unplugged.”

Apparently there was some behind-the-scenes drama over who got what gig on the “Top Gun: Maverick” soundtrack, at least according to Twenty-One Pilots lead frontman Tyler Joseph.
Joseph told Los Angeles-based rock radio station Kroq (via Indiewire) that the band had begun discussing the possibility of writing a new song for the movie, but then things abruptly went sideways when Cruise decided to change things up.
(If you need a minute to open Spotify and make sure you’ve ever actually heard a Twenty-One Pilots song, please take that time now.)
“I was working with the music placement person for the new ‘Top Gun’ on writing a new song for them, and then I believe Tom Cruise came in and just fired everyone,” Joseph told Kroq. “You’ve seen that new ‘Top Gun’ thing that he’s got?

The sky just isn’t big enough for these dueling aviators. Twenty-One Pilots frontman Tyler Joseph alleged that “Top Gun: Maverick” producer and star Tom Cruise “fired” the band from the sequel film’s soundtrack.
Joseph explained on Los Angeles-based radio station Kroq that he thought his Grammy-winning two-person band was flying high after being brought on by Paramount Pictures to contribute to the “Top Gun 2” soundtrack. However, Joseph said Cruise wasn’t a fan of the Pilots’ sound.

A week after Twenty One Pilots released their new album Scaled & Icy, the duo virtually performed the LP’s “Shy Away” on Friday’s Tonight Show.
Performing from the same pastel-colored set used in their recent publicity photos, Tyler Joseph, Josh Dun and company ran through Scaled & Icy’s first single, giving fans a preview of what it would sound like when the band eventually gets back on the road.
Arriving three years after 2018’s Trench, Scaled and Icy was created largely while Joseph and Dun were in Covid-19 lockdown in their respective homes.

Twenty One Pilots have released a new song, “Shy Away,” from their upcoming sixth studio album, Scaled and Icy, out May 21st via Fueled by Ramen.
“Shy Away” finds the duo embracing a propulsive synth-pop sound that still features a few alt-rock tricks (including a brief but tasteful half-time breakdown during the bridge for the hardcore kids). The track arrives with a music video, directed by Miles & Aj, in which Twenty One Pilots perform the song in different abstract, neon-lit sets, at one point appearing alongside duplicate versions of themselves donning ratty ski masks.

It’s fitting that a song about doing it yourself is the only track in Rolling Stone‘s year-end Top 50 chart to be penned by a single writer.

Twenty One Pilots singer Tyler Joseph is going to become a dad! During the duo's set at Lollapalooza Berlin on Saturday, the 30-year-old brought out onstage his wife Jenna Joseph, who sported a visible baby bump. "I know I said I'm bringing a couple people onstage, and that's two," he said, as she cradled her bump and turned from side to side. He kissed and nestled up against her bump and then they shared a sweet smooch. Naturally the fans went wild. Many at the venue filmed the adorable moment. And scores more cheered on the couple on social media as they watched it on Lollapalooza Berlin's livestream. "I knew it! I knew it, I knew it, I...

Twenty One Pilots have released a new video for “The Hype,” a track from their 2018 album Trench. The clip, directed by longtime collaborators Andrew Donoho and Reel Bear Media, sees vocalist Tyler Joseph and drummer Josh Dun go from performing at a tiny basement show to playing the roof of their house in front of a huge crowd, before being (literally and metaphorically) brought back down to earth.

Guess how many songs in the Top 10 biggest tracks in the U.S. last year were written by a solo songwriter? Zero. The year before that? Zero.
In 2016, just one solo-written song made the year-end Top 10: “Stressed Out,” by 21 Pilots, written by Tyler Joseph. In 2015, there was also just one solo-written track (Fetty Wap’s “Trap Queen”), while in 2014 there were two, including “Counting Stars,” by One Republic (written by Ryan Tedder), and the biggest song of that year, “Happy,” by Pharrell Williams.

Twenty One Pilots spend time with a playful-yet-ominous animated creature in their new “Chlorine” video.
Throughout the cryptic clip, Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun repeatedly fill up a swimming pool with water and chlorine, seemingly trying to draw out the diminutive, alien-like creature – which the duo dubbed “Ned” – hiding behind a pile of backyard debris. Toward the end of the piece, Ned jumps into the water, and his antlers appear to grow; moments later, Joseph sits in the empty pool and offers the character a cup of liquid.

Twenty One Pilots performed their single “Jumpsuit” at the American Music Awards. The duo utilized a backdrop of shifting mountain images and a flaming car prop that referenced their recent video series.
Frontman Tyler Joseph opened the track by pounding out the song’s distorted bassline, as drummer Josh Dunn pummeled his kit. Joseph moved to a piano on the bridge before hopping back to his bass and screaming the song’s frantic, climactic lines.
“Jumpsuit” is one of several singles from the band’s recently issued fifth album, Trench,...

On their 2015 breakthrough, Blurryface, Twenty One Pilots were the ultimate post-Spotify rock band, flickering wildly through ideas and genre: Tyler Joseph’s vein-spilling emo rap, Josh Dun’s funky-hard Travis Barker drums, tweaks of electronic music and reggae, twee ukulele indie, the grandeur of a Broadway musical and existential lyrics with a metatextual flair. Think a modern Sublime doing Terrence Malick’s Tree of Life.
Most of those elements are still here on fifth album Trench, but they’ve coalesced into a smarter, more mature whole. Maybe Top have grown as songwriters and arrangers,...

Fire can signify destruction, but it can also mark a rebirth. On Wednesday night at London’s Brixton Academy, flames gave rise to a new beginning for Twenty One Pilots. Branded as “A Complete Diversion,” the one-off show opened with a blaze. As the lights dimmed, drummer Josh Dun emerged from the darkness, clad in a black face mask and hoodie, holding a fiery torch aloft before climbing behind his kit. With a thump of the kick drum singer Tyler Joseph, also in a black mask, joined him, heralded by...

Twenty One Pilots have unveiled their new song “My Blood.” The new visual follows their trilogy video storyline told via “Jumpsuit,” “Nico and the Niners” and “Levitate.”
The new Trench track’s audio release includes one-shot video footage of singer Tyler Joseph in a recording studio. Flanked by guitars on the walls, he’s seen from behind, playing the song’s grooving bassline while the track plays and he bobs his head along to the melodies and beat.
“Stay with me, no, you don’t need to run,” Joseph sings on the uplifting,...

Twenty One Pilots conclude an eerie visual trilogy with their video for new song “Levitate.” The clip, which continues the storyline from “Jumpsuit” and “Nico and the Niners,” follows frontman Tyler Joseph and drummer Josh Dun as they join a group of rebels down a hillside and into a torch-lit, post-apocalyptic gathering.
Vultures circle throughout the scrapyard-style dwelling, where Joseph raps and Dun pounds his drum set as their yellow-striped companions dance and gather around a bonfire. Director Andrew Donoho utilizes woozy blurs and frantic editing to increase the tension.

Twenty One Pilots imbue cultish imagery in the eerie new “Nico and the Niners” video. The band’s longtime visual collaborator Andrew Donoho, who directed the band’s last “Jumpsuit” clip, continues that journey in this video.
The video shows singer Tyler Joseph packing a backpack and meeting drummer Josh Dun in a faded city square, where they shake hands before joining a group of torch-wielding rebels and perform the psychedelic reggae-rap song. The video veers between that mysterious thread and the mystical activities of bishops in red-hooded robes.

Twenty One Pilots veer in two polar opposite directions – proggy alt-rock and psychedelic reggae-rap – on their two new singles, “Jumpsuit” and “Nico and the Niners.” The tracks appear on the band’s upcoming fifth LP, Trench, out October 5th via Fueled By Ramen.
The duo anchor “Jumpsuit” with distorted bass guitar, crisp drumming and dark washes of synth, as frontman Tyler Joseph builds from a near-whisper to a full-throated scream to an atmospheric falsetto. “I can’t believe how much I hate/ Pressures of a new place roll my way,...
