From their exotic sound to their slow merge into the mainstream, Twenty One Pilots is beginning to take over the sound of alternative music. Here are 5 reasons Twenty One Pilots are without a doubt going to be on your next party playlist:
1. The Guys
Meet Tyler Joseph and Joshua Dunn. Both hailing from Columbus, Ohio. The duo began their magic together in 2011, after two original members of the band left the group because of busy schedules (smh). Luckily for fans, Tyler and Josh exploded with compatibility. Aside from their unmatchable talent, the guys share a love of Taco Bell, witty humor, and their hometown. Even if their sound isn't your style, it would be hard not to like these two.
2. The Music
With Tyler's original, hard hitting lyrics and Josh's unbelievable energy on the drums, Twenty One Pilots have created a sound unique to mainstream music. If you enjoy rap, love ballads, ukuleles, scream-o, techno, reggae, or intelligent lyrical placement, Twenty One Pilots is the band for you! Their music allows for fans of eclectic tastes to celebrate raw, powerful art in the most simplistic, fun-loving form.
3. The Fans
Twenty One Pilots have a relationship with their fanbase like no other group before. Tyler and Josh have been known to stretch their sets out long enough for question and answer sessions for the fans. The passion they have for their music is only met by a firey adoration for those who support them.
4. The Family
Tyler and Josh are definite family men! Featured on the cover for their third studio album, "Vessel," are Tyler and Josh's adorable grandfathers. Josh has frequently spoken about his love of his mother's BBQ skills. Also, Tyler was recently married to his longtime girlfriend, Jenna. Everyone loves a man who loves their family, right?
5. The Shows
Twenty One Pilots puts on a show incomparable to any other band. With dangerous (probably unprofessional) stunts, sky-high energy, and immense crowd interaction, a Twenty One Pilots show is bound to leave you exhausted and begging for more tickets. They know what their fans want and even more so, how to recruit new fans. To miss out on an opportunity to experience their music live is to miss out on living. They will not let you down!
