Written and largely produced by Joseph in isolation over the course of the past year at his home studio, with Dun engineering the albumโs drums from across the country,ย Scaled And Icyย is the product of long-distance virtual sessions and finds the duo processing their upended routines along with the prevailing emotions of 2020 – anxiety, loneliness, boredom, and doubt. The duo had to forgo their normal studio sessions but reached a new of level of introspection in the process, adopting a more imaginative and bold approach to their songwriting. The result is a collection of songs that push forward through setbacks and focus on the possibilities worth remembering.ย Scaled And Icyย is Twenty One Pilotsโ first studio album in three years and follows their RIAA Platinum certified LP,ย Trench.
In 2020, Twenty One Pilots surprised fans with standalone singles โLevel of Concern" ะธ "Christmas Saves The Year.โย โLevel of Concernโ reigned at Alternative Radio for 12 weeks straight and cracked the Top 25 on Billboardโs โHot 100โ chart, while also achievingย RIAA Gold certification, and propelling the band to victory at last yearโs American Music Awards where they took home the award for โFavorite Artist โ Alternative Rock.โย โChristmas Saves The Yearโ arrived at the tail end of 2020 and debuted on Billboardโs โAlternative Airplayโ chart becoming the first holiday-themed song to make the list since 2012.
Twenty One Pilots scored one final accolade in the final moments of 2020, officially breaking the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDโขย for the longest music video with their history-making regenerative visual for โLevel of Concern.โ Conceived by the band with interactive director Jason Nickel, and award-winning storyteller / director Jason Zada, the first-ever โNever-Ending Music Videoโ pulled in fan created content from over 162,000 user submissions, in real time, live on YouTube.ย Powered by Imposium, every three minutes and forty seconds a new music video was created and streamed live to YouTube, containing brand new content from fans. Besting the previous record holder, Pharrell and his 24-hour long video for โHappy,โ Twenty One Pilotsโ โNever-Ending Music Videoโ for โLevel of Concernโ broadcasted for 177 days straight with a total run time of 4,264 hours, 10 mins, 25 seconds.
Twenty One Pilotsโ 2018 LPย Trenchย ushered in a new era for the duo from Ohio.ย Earning Platinum certification from the RIAA, the album was met withย critical acclaim with Billboard declaring, โTrenchย revels in the confounding genre-blurring and cavernous conceptualism that has defined Twenty One Pilots.โ ย A true global phenomenon having surpassed two billion streams worldwide,ย Trenchย is highlighted byย the RIAA Gold and Platinum certified alternative hits โThe Hype,โ โChlorine,โ and โJumpsuit.โ โJumpsuitโ stands as the decadeโs fastest rising song to reach #1 on Billboardโs โAlternative Songsโ chart and earned the duo their fourth GRAMMYยฎย nomination (Best Rock Song). The acclaimed conceptual collection also features the RIAA Gold-certified โNico And The Ninersโ and the RIAA Platinum-certified single โMy Blood.โ
