Trench by Twenty One Pilots
Trench is an album by Twenty One Pilots, released in 2018. 4 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 28 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “The Hype”, on 10 lists with a best position of #7.
Trench, the fifth album from Columbus, Ohio duo Twenty One Pilots, came out on October 5, 2018, through Fueled by Ramen and Elektra Records. It was their first album in three years after the runaway success of Blurryface, and Tyler Joseph and drummer Josh Dun made it in secret while they went quiet in public for a year, with Joseph producing alongside Paul Meany.
It's a concept record, set in a city called Dema and the wider continent called Trench, that circles back to the mental health struggles, suicide and doubt the band has always written about. The sound pulls rap cadences, deep basslines, falsetto pop and rock thump into one moody whole. "Jumpsuit" and "Nico and the Niners" arrived first, with "Levitate", "My Blood", "Chlorine" and "The Hype" after. Critics praised its ambition, and it hit number one in six countries and number two in the UK and US.
