End the concept
The term “pop” can only be used as a very general term for Twenty One Pilots. Like no other band, the duo Tyler Joseph (vocals, guitar, bass, everything else) and Josh Dun (drums) mix mainstream pop quotes with rap interludes, alternative indie twists and bold electronics. A recipe that worked at the time because a whole generation was thirsting for something that could happily use what was already there, but should not end in a miserably boring copy. “Blurryface” was also the early beginning of a fictional story about the character Clancy, who fights against oppressors in the city of Dema. Fans of Twenty One Pilots could read the songs and messages in a similarly cryptic way to “Swifties” those of their idol Taylor Swift. Here and there, hidden messages, side stories and clues, the respective sound bodies of which led in certain directions of content.
