With the release of two new singles and the announcement of their new album "TRENCH" Twenty One Pilots seem to have established a story-driven universe that plays throughout their music.
In this video, we will look into some key motifs and connections we can make between all their music videos and writing to see how this story timeline comes together.

8*( Hope this consoles you. ♥
nalbis the people of Demo don’t like bright colors that’s why everyone that live there wheres gray black and dark colors. And if you look at the song nico and the niners music video you will se a lite structural thing which is the big long towers in the middle of demo. So they basically want to trap lite and people that Are happy.
Don’t know if I spelled the city demo right lol
nalbis where do I get that Jacket!!!!! I want 🤤
I am convinced it was Nico that stole the car radio.
Lmao
Lmao+1
As a way of silencing Tyler from speaking out against dema
Nevyn Night omfg
Hahaha. Could be Nico.
TØP isn't just a band its a concept
Or,,,,,,,,, an idea
@@angel-ry9mb pls don't don't put mcr triggers man
Angel Ortiz I swear to god-
It's not a band it's an idea
@@MG-mk1hx BRUH FOR REAL
You forgot: In Morph, a dude called Nicolas Bourbaki get mentioned. Tyler said himself that Blurryface’s real name is Nicolas Bourbaki. Nicolas Bourbaki was a pseudonym for a group of nine mathematics that gave out books and music. One of the persons behind this pseudonym is named Andre. According to the map of Dema, Andre is also the name of one of the bishops of Dema. Nicolas Bourbaki mentioned “509 Clancy” in one of their books. If you google this, you will come to the house where “Stressed Out” was recorded.
I was about the say the same thing
Morph wasnt released at this time
HOLY CRAP THATS INSAN
I think Nicolas Bourbaki is probably the full name of Nico, from Nico and The Niners
@@sockscav but is this
Inception: I'm the most complicated and puzzling script.
TØP: hold my guitar...
Hold my uke
Hold my uke
Another thing I want to point out in defense of Heathens being a prequel to Jumpsuit. Tyler has the exact same cut on his nose in both videos which to me is the biggest visual confirmation that both are linked and are meant to follow each other.
yesssss that's literally what i was thinking
i think, instead of a prequel, why not a sequel? that makes more sense
In speaking of era links, you know how tyler broke a car in heavydirtysoul? well in jumpsuit, you can find a gosh dang broken car
the scar in heathens is much more scarred over or already healing, the one in jumpsuit looks fresh and red.. maybe it's a whole different order how we should see things.. i dont know \(•-•)/
Benjamin Johann Truschnegg what happens if tyler scar was the punch of jenna in tear in my heart
Wow, this makes me appreciate this upcoming album so much more. I'm a fiend for concept albums, but this is taking it to another level
''a fiend for concept albums'', does that mean you hate concept albums?
I think it means he will act like a fiend to anyone that gets in the way of him and his concept albums
Billy Cobb i love u. Bye😚
Friggin Boom Toys yeah this is more accurate
could you name a band or a few bands that have concept albums? they're so fascinating!
past: what is a blurryface
now: what is a dema
what is a bandito
a bandito is a mexican rapper
i think
Bandit on Spanish as a male
@@infiniteprojectprismpower3654 LMAO 😂
it's not what, it's WHO :)
Now: what is a trash
The fact that a band created a universe within their songs is mind blowing to me.
Coheed and Cambria is another band that did the same. Check them out
nothing but respect for MY twenty one pilots detective
SewerRatAlly oh my god I love this comment so much😭😭
nothing but appreciation for MY sewer rat, ally
Tyler's a GENIUS
Tech Planet *cough* josh dun also exists *cough*
saachi b I know he exists but I like tyler more, do you have a problem? cough on your face
Tech Planet its ok to have a lane or whatever, but in ur comment u implied that tyler came up with this entire concept all by himself which isn’t true at all
saachi b lol, you made it up, I just said Tyler is Genius, do read carefully ! Never said that tyler is only one behind the dema (Tho it maybe possible, idk) 🤷🏻♂️
Tech Planet i didnt make it up lmao its what i and many others could have interpreted. and obviously josh is a part of the dema planning
if u put nico and the niners on backwards it says 'we are banditos, you will leave dema at true east, we renounce violence.
Atomic Waste it says we are banditos you will leave dema and head true east we denounce vialism.
*vialism
Denounce not renounce.
@Aischylos Lowell
I read somewhere that vialism means bottling up emotions, like the theme of people being silent about their depression/suicidal thoughts that he talked about at 4:30 . If you read the text at 3:27 , it says that "the bishops instituted vialism as a mandate." So when Twenty One Pilots renounced vialism, they effectively regained control over their voices from Dema and became free to write/sing about Dema.
Edit: and I think it also means they're telling us it's okay to share our problems with others and to get help
@@1969crocodil the silence actually the trident for the Scaled And Icy in which Clancy Is Dead repositioned
You called Clancy was Tyler 5 years ago
Dema refers to an ancient burial process most commonly known as the tower of silence. Bodies were placed into an open air structure, where scavengers and the elements were allowed to remove the unclean elements of the body until only the bleached skeleton remained. The skeleton would then be covered in wax and placed in a trench. I always wondered the significance of the skeleton suits they would wear in concert...makes sense now.
Doriane Feinstein...and their name refers to the 21 pilots that died due to a known plane defect. As the pilots were acceptable sacrifices for the status quo of airplane manufacturing, TOP instead talks about it more as a music industry equivalent...but also makes the metaphor broad enough that it applies to us all.
'Placed in a trench'
Trench
What religion/culture did that? I’m curious to research more
Crystal Dee...Zoroastrianism if I recall.
The basic idea was that they knew rotting bodies would spread disease...so they created this burial process to mitigate the dangers.
This is a perfect video.
- Perfect structure
- Clean editing
- Humor when needed
- Fitting visuals
- Fitting use of music
All of this made it have an amazing flow which makes the video interesting.
Good job. It's obvious that you're really trying to make it look as good as it does. This video from you with "only" 200 subscribers greatly outshines a lot of other channels I've seen (especially when it comes to TOP-channels). You've just earned yourself one of hopefully many more soobscribblers.
thanks for the full on review!!
i think gingersheep makes really good stuff and i actually got a lot of my details and research through him, he's great!
popsongprofessor isnt a top channel BUT has lots of videos about them!
but i'm glad my "first" dive into twenty one pilots videos has gotten this kind of praise!
Yea, you definitely deserve more credit than it seems you get. Awesome job.
When he first entered the room I had MaxMoeFoe vibes
Zyprius On YT I met max a couple years back actually! cool guy, haven’t seen much of his videos lately though!
Was thinking the same thing!
Blurryface (Aka Nico, aka Nicolas Bourbaki) is Tyler's alter ego. He paints his neck and hands black to represent this alter ego taking control. The hands, because it represents stopping him from creating. The neck, because it represents stopping him from breathing entirely, like suffocating.
If you notice, in the Heathens music video when Tyler is performing his neck goes from black to normal skin color.
He paints his neck and hands black to represent his alter ego, (Nicolas Bourbaki, Nico) taking control. The hands, because it represents stopping him from creating. The neck, because it represents stopping him from breathing entirely, like suffocating.
When Tyler escapes the dark thoughts from Nico, he essentially is back on his feet and not in control anymore.
seriously impressive editing here.
i second this
i take pride in my editing, thanks my friendo!
I third this
Taxxi...jfc...it's me...Spook.
Hey Taxxi and Spook. It’s The Hatbox Ghost. Haven’t been on recently.
HEY NEW FOLKS!!!
new music video is out for nico and the niners!
i've been working on a follow up for a couple days scripting and this new video is helpful for that!
just wanna say, i hear you. this video was made way before this new video, but the next one coming up will be bound to get everyone thinking. way more analytical ideas and less theory based!
HOWEVER! i really do like taking time with my videos, there's no chance i'm rushing this one out, at all, i'd already started writing it before this music video came out and i intend to maintain a standard of quality!
I AM NOT A BREAKING NEWS CHANNEL, I DO ANALYTICAL VIDEOS AND I'LL TAKE MY TIME! i hope thats okay!!!
nalbis your theory was right omg
i honestly think that the new video ties it all the way back to fairly local
And on their instagram under the nico and the niners photo they say that it's "part two of a three part story from Trench." so maybe another connected video coming soon...
nalbis The number 9 is like still important: 9 concrete pipes in the beginning, Tyler has 9 sunflowers, there are 9 bishops (the niners), those white glowing sticks are in groups of 9, there are 9 people in the group with torches (with Tyler included), the handshake is 9 seconds.
Your completely right
I think it all starts at the begining with "Holding On To You" _Now that I write and think about it, and the story unfolds, You should take my life; You should take my soul._
A brilliant video mate :)
first/
Holy crap! Hey Jamie! Didn’t expect you here
Oh hi! I'm a big fan! Whats your favourite arg?
Didn't expect to see inside a mind here
Also, In the end of the Heathens music video, Tyler's jumpsuit turns yellow, and In the Jumpsuit music video, Tyler has the same scars on his face like he does in the Heathes music video
Jumpsuit: a (burning) car
Nico and the Niners: a torch (in the music video)
A Car a Torch a Death JSJSJSWHAT
Fvqk 😱
Fvqk I swear if that's actually linked....I love that song so much and that would be so cool.
The death could be Josh, there are a couple theories in these comments that Josh died in the Heathens MV
Lemon Boi honestly dude
Joshua Starr omy
Does anyone else notice when Tyler sang in ''Goner''; ''I've got two faces..........Blurry's the one i'm not,''?
THIS IS JUST LIKE DANGER DAYS (MCR/KILLJOYS) *has flashback of NA NA NA*
Perfect videos don't exi-
In the Trench album Tyler has the same cut on his nose as Heathens
yoo i noticed that too
The answers to the lore being answered now, officially after 5 years is insane omg
At the end of heathens when Clancy gets caught his jumpsuit is yellow and slowly fades into orange,so I think you're right about orange being a mix of the 2 colors
I think this is also telling us after yellow we are getting a orange era !!! It’s the only color in the complete diversion scene that we don’t have yet… Notice Tyler in yellow jacket. Josh in black with red drum stick (Also the microphone is black and red) and all the people around them in ORANGE 🧡
i want to propose the theory that this whole thing goes back to car radio. i know i know it’s not likely but hear me out. in the video for levitate tyler shaves his head as he does in car radio. this may have something to do with the fact that this is some rebellion from the dema and i think when tyler talks about someone stealing his car radio it’s a metaphor for someone stealing his joy and expression. music is often used as a form of expression and his is gone, stolen by someone (dema) and now he sits in silence, or is forced into silence with his thoughts and demons thinking about how “we’re all battling fear” quote car radio. battling fear is the equivalent to fighting demon, or what dema represents, our fears and insecurities. if i missed something please let me know. edit: in nico and the niners you can hear a sound that sounds REALLY similar to the beginning of ode to sleep so this could potentially go back to vessel itself. In songs like Run and Go you hear him say how he’s killed a man, blurryface or at least what the bishops represent, and in Fake You Out he says, “our brains are sick but that’s ok” sick being a mental illness. I think vessel might take place in the future after tyler has escaped dema and is experiencing almost a ptsd state where he doesn’t know what he is or what to do without dema because it’s all he’s ever known. I just realized that the last note of leave the city is the same as the note at the end of truce.
knowing all this makes me actually have even more respect of the guys and also it gives me a whole new view to their whole music, even tho it's just theories
jeez you really thought that out.
Also in Levitate Tyler talks about getting back what was stolen from his slot.
Bailey Kate lmfao it even goes back to their self titled album
Also in levitate he says he got back what he once bought which is literally car radio. Maybe that linked to their hiatus too since hes now able to create and share music now hes escaping dema when before he couldn't since he was stuck without a radio. Idk I might be looking too far into it but welp 🤷♀️
Thank God someone has the free time to figure this shit out lol. Love your theories man I think your spot on.
This is actually really interesting. I am a new fan. Like I've always liked TØP and I've listened to them but I never really understood the lyrics meaning and I've only just gotten back into the music; post tour :(. This is handy because I'm too lazy to actually go figure out the order to watch the videos and go to all the sights ao having someone explain it to me is good. Thanks :)
I've been a fan since I was 8 when he himself produced that one album with kitchen sink
@Mary Gillespie ah yes, my favourite song, flightless bird of isles
Me too pal
Let me add something:
The red/yellow is a reference to a movie called "the village", or so it seems like, at least
The people in the village are terrified to go outside it during the night because there are there "monsters".
The monsters are actually the elders, dressed in red. The one colour the villagers used to scare away the monsters, was obviously yellow. I think it fits well, as it is someone from the inside holding them captured, not from the outside, as well as we see in the video that Nico, at least, is very old. It's also obvious that the yellow rose petals makes the bishop and his horse scared and uncomfortable.
yeah, I watched pop song professor as well! :)
Oh okay
He probably explained it a lot better than i did, haha
oh no no! just he had a similar connection there too! not saying yours was better or worse :)
Haha, I should probably just have linked to it, lol. I made the connection between the movie before I saw his video so I might have missed some points.
This video is fucking amazing, tho. (Slightly unrelated)
I think the colors has more to do with how scientists has linked colors to be involved with peoples favorite music. Like this is feeling yellow is hope, optimism etc. And Red is something negative. So prisoners of Denma use yellow, because the "monsters" can't see it or it does something to them. Perhaps it's to guide the prison escapees.
theconversation.com/every-song-has-a-color-and-an-emotion-attached-to-it-45537
I think that seems more like a thing Tyler would do rather than do what a movie did.
I was a little skeptical about the Heathens music video being tied into the DEMA "cannon." However, when you tied the lyrics of NATN to the music video, it started to make sense! Thanks man!
it's *CANON* please spell it right
Haha my b!
Right... Cannons are what I shot in the Army. Canon is what makes Star Wars fans crazy. Cans are what I eat soup out of. C's are what I got in Math in High School. is nothing so, therefore, it shall remain unsaid.
I like that improvised jumpsuit.
Bandito Lyrics: "I created this world, to feel some control, derstroy it if i want"
No idea if this common knowledge or not but just thought it was interesting.
In the song “Doubt” on blurry face one of the verses go:
“Gnawing on the bishops
Claw away at the system”
No idea what the second line means but the first line might be a reference to the 9 bishops.
“Repeating simple phrases
Someone holy insisted”
Dunno really what this means but maybe it’s like propoganda inside dema.
“Want the mark he's made on my skin
To mean something to me again”
This seems like a strong reference to the black mark on Tyler’s neck during the blurry face era. Also the second part might be him saying that the bishops what him to embrace dema again like during the blurry face album.
“Hope you haven't left without me
Hope you haven't left without me, please”
This is again a direct reference to what was said In the video about Clancy being left behind.
Anyway sorry if this is old news just he didn’t say it in the video. Thanks.
||-//
George Egan I said the same. There are hints everywhere in Blurryface towards Dema. Lane Boy for example reiterated the need to stay in line with society as in Dema' society. Message man says to be careful when messing with the mesage man and that only some would understand the lyrics....I think this refers to only people who suffer from depression understanding but also to codes used for the revolution and possibly passed on by a message man.
Yael Nachshon OMG!!! My mind is blowing to often right know! 😂
before i get comments about it. YES, i know there's a new clancy letter.
i wrote this before that, so chill!
what do i think it means? well i think it shows that clancy might not specifically be tyler in this storyline. however, i do think tyler is some sort of nameless character anyways, someone we can all step into the shoes of. it's a heroes journey at the end of the day.
so who is clancy? well i hope to elaborate more in a follow up video once we get some more music from the boys, but as of right now i'm seeing everything about this world being metaphors. i think everything about this universe is representing an internal struggle of someone fighting mental illness. being pulled back into DEMA is being pulled back into a darker state of your mind, rebelling into the banditos is where hope lies, the trench itself being a metaphor for the struggle of escaping your anxiesties, as we see one of the embodiments of these anxieties actually catch up to the character tyler is portraying and draw him back towards dema.
CLANCY seems to possibly be a metaphor or a representation for a more rational side to the mind of our lead character, the rational mind wants to help and support you but sometimes it will just watch from afar, unable to offer that support you may need internally.
i think the turn of events in the story will be clancy learning to come to terms with the past and how bad dema truly was and try to get tyler, or our hero character, out of the trench and with the banditos, where hope lies.
I very much agree, and regardless, your theory is really good.
But I would like to say that I think that I believe that, if your theory is somewhat correct, and the videos are linked, the hds video takes place in tylers mind, I say this because of the scar that he has on his nose ,that is also on the heathens video but not on the hds one, and this "mind trip" is what motivates him to try to escape. And he escapes the prison and goes east.
Idk what I'm talking about. But anyway, I really enjoyed the video, hope you do more.
I mean, I'm pretty sure you will, any twenty one pilots video will get you them sweet views.
Also I think josh is clancy lol
can't wait for a follow up. thank you for taking the time to make this one.
Jojo900Ful Josh can’t be Clancy, in the letter Clancy thought that Nico (or whoever that is) saw him and hid in the caves, Josh didn’t hide
Whilst watching heavydirtysoul music video i noticed at 3.22 i believe josh is wearing the new ||-// tøp logo on his hat we only see it once in the video so maybe we knew about the logo from a long time ago or else i am being an idiot who hasn't gotten any sleep in 2 days 😂
I don’t even have words. Tyler Joseph is an absolute genius
2:30 looks like neon gravestones thing......
Coincidence? I THINK NOT!!!!!
Omg it does
Dema is theword for tower of silence in latin
The Sibling Duet HOLY SMOKES!!
Omg this is great!!!
Hmmm, wow. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_Silence mentions "dema" and also "trench" and look at the map there!
Also, I looked up "Nico" and it says that's Latin for "I kill" so there's that...
Janet Bryson Wow!
Ok . I cannot be the only one loving the diy jacket and messy hair 😫🔥 thanks for the update tho
Adaia Perez yo i swear i see you in every tøp video i watch lmao
I think the reason that Tyler has a cut on his nose in jumpsuit is to show the resemblance between it and heathens.
DUDE RELATING TO HEATHENS: I JUST REMEMBERED THAT TYLER SAID THAT IF HEATHENS WAS GOING TO BE ON THE NEW ALBUM IF IT DIDNT GET ACCEPTED INTO THE SOUNDTRACK. HE WROTE IT AS A REGULAR OLD TWENTY ONE PILOTS SONG AND NOT A SONG SPECIFICALLY FOR SUICIDE SQUAD.
DEMA stands for Doubt, Expectations, Materialism and Anxiety
Tyler Shand omg so obvious
Tyler Shand and it means tower of silence in lattin
Mariah Moya that's not true
murido sorry that's what I was told
I watch these in my spare time instead of doing homework. This is my 17th viewing and i still think this style of content is way better than anything else. I wish you had thousands of videos that i could just spend my time watching but i understand that its not really what anyone would want to do for their whole life. Love ur content tho!
The moment "overcompensate" came out I knew i needed this video and I was kind of sad that you wouldn't post
THANKS FOR THE COMEBACK, WELCOME BACK TO -TRENCH- UA-cam
Yellow symbolises happiness. It’s really fitting that that’s the colour of the rebellion
Yes, it does. Optimism, positivity, CLARITY, honor, loyalty and joy. I'm glad someone said this, thank you! It really is beautiful. It's also the color of the Solar plexus chakra. Which, when balanced, brings integrity, problem solving, calm and CONFIDENCE. :) How lovely is this DEMA concept? I love that they use red to counteract the yellow. Red symbolizing frustration and lack of confidence. ♡
They can't see yellow... they can't see happiness?
Sophia Rahim yellow is also the color people wear for mental health awareness to show people they're not alone
Matpat is *QUAKING*
Panicked Animatics Haha yes!
Panicked Animatics 😂😂😂this is Oliver all grown up
i wish the guy was a fan just think about his kind of videomaking and his research it would be amazing then again to be on this level of the fandom you probably have to have a personal reson for it and i wouldnt wish that apon anyone
Lmao
WOW. im actually impressed and overjoyed there was this whole other layer i thought i understood but didnt until now. YOU did all of this 5 years ago crazy.
I'm coming at this video after we got most of the info. Very impressed by your theories, nice work! HDS actually ends with him back in the car. 11:04 ... I'm still wheezing. lmao
Also about why yellow and why east is up. Yellow represents the rising of the sun. As we know, Tyler fights his battles and struggles with his thoughts mainly at night and is relieved when morning comes. You know where morning comes from? East. The east and yellow represent & remind Tyler not to give up because the sun will rise again.
They may also represent different things within this universe they are creating but it always comes back to this.
The sun will rise and we will try again ||-//
Dylan Zelensky omg yesyesyes!
Hello! While I’m on a long car trip I decided to make a compiled list of all the Bishop names and parts of the songs they’re tied to, since I couldn’t seem to find one!
Ride - “Listo” - “We have a list of people that we would take”
Tear in my heart - “Sacarver” - “She’s a carver”
HeavyDirtySoul - “Keon” - “I hope that they choke on smoke”
Laneboy - “Vetomo” - “Will they be alive tomorrow?”
Doubt - “Reisdro” - “Temperature is dropping”
Polarize - “Lisden” - “All I feel is deny, deny, denial”
Goner - “Nills” - “And beaten down, I’ll slip away into this sound”
Fairly local - “Andre” - “And repeat yesterday’s dance”
Stressed out - “Nico” - Blurryface
You could potentially spell Nico from the line “Used to play prete(n)d, g(i)ve ea(c)h (o)ther different names”
But that might be a bit of stretch hahaha!
Drowning Summer this is actually super useful
It is possible
Omg, this is so freaking awesome! Thank You!
This is fucking genius omg
Nico's meaning is BLURRY.
Well, thanks for commenting on my Trench video cause otherwise I wouldn't have seen this video. What an amazing analysis of the whole universe they created. Makes me understand the whole thing way more hahaha
I'm in the clique only for month or so, and I suppose it was too early for me to discover this video, for real, my mind was blown away by first 5 minutes of it, too many info to process 😅anyway great video..I watched it with a big pleasure as a new fren 😁
I'm new too! Only been listening for around three months. They're awesome, aren't they? I'm already slightly obsessed 😳
I've been listening for about 6 months and only recently I've been thrown into the real fandom with all these conspiracies. It's great!
This is far one of the best theories ive heard
It’s not a frigging theory!!!
Please update this now that the Nico and the Niners music video is out. Theres some insane references in it and I have a ton of theories and I need this
Really great job I thought that your execution and theorising was spot on and very easy to understand. Thank you.
I've been listening to TOP for a while, but only recently I've started to look up all those references and connections.
So these videos are really helpful. Thanks mate.
I'm really new to the TØP fandom and I keep hearing about "dema" and stuff and was confused for the longest time... Thank you so much for the explanation!

Dude I appreciate this breakdown so much! Trench is becoming more and more incredible every day
OMFG I'm so happy you made this ahhh
The reason why the nine bishops don't like yellow is because, the color yellow means happiness, positivity, clarity, energy, optimism, enlightenment, remembrance, intellect, honor, loyalty, and joy. But it could also represent cowardice and deceit.
For me personally,Dema is Moscow.Yellow...it reminds me something,meybe
events in Ukraine in 2014year , Revolution of dignity,also after it , Russian military intervention in eastern ukraine.
Here's another example of how comparing like the members of the Maidan Self-Defense used to wear yellow kerchief.And ukrainian forces in 2014 attaching the strip of yellow masking tape on their sleeves(on shoulder), cos they had identified themselves as allies( between different branch of the ukrainian armed forces).Dema don't control us.East is up!Glory to Ukraine!
Lea Jones Nicolaism was a Christian heresy, and the number 9 spiritually means judgement. Personally I think it represents a different side to Trench, as the Bishops are part of the "heresy" of Tyler's beliefs, which is to stay alive. They're coming to judge him for doing what is right for those who choose to join him. Also, in contrast to "trench" (think "deep", there are so many refrences to being "high" (levitate, the "niners" as in being in "cloud nine", Tyler's jumpsuit taking him "so high"). And how Trench is in the East (which he says is "up").
In Japanese, the name Nikko means "daylight", and the Sun rises in the East. The number 9 also sounds similar to Japanese for "death", which is why they consider it bad luck. There are also references to sunflowers. Which is probably why they chose the color yellow.
"The sun will rise, and we will try again". I believe this is Tyler's / Clancy's way of fighting for "staying alive".
In Korea the color yellow is represents fear, so.... Is DEMA Korean?
That's why Thomas Sanders' Deceit is yellow... Learn somethin new every day, thank you!!
And one of the new music videos for this album is filmed in? Kiev, Ukraine!
My theory on the petals and yellow and all that is not that nico/dema is scared of the color yellow but that it was all a bigger metaphor, Tyler was getting pulled backed into his anxiety and then the rebellion showed up showering him with these petals- or their reassurance and affections, yellow is seen as a happy color and so it would make sense that a rebellion against dema would use it, they are fighting for happiness and freedom, something Tyler is trying to find in spite of his insecurities
I think that they're scared of yellow because it's usually situated with happiness and being carefree and they don't want that and so they're trying to contain tyler and keep him away from their happiness so that they can't help him get better..
MusicalTheatreTrash I love your profile picture
Daaaaamn! allready love the music and the lyrics, but had no idea it went this deep! :O Thanks for helping me enjoy this even more!
I've only been a fan around 2018 when my ex took me to one of their concerts "Trench" it slapped. I just wanted to say the 21 pilots fan base are sweet hearts :^) almost everyone who is a fan of them is such a sweet bean.
Im literally the intro when i heard jumpsuit and nico and the ninners
I think "Bishops hate yellow" 10:19 is not the answer... but those yellow petals mean a change. As used in cinema, yellow means: wisdom, knowledge, relaxation, "joy, happiness, optimism, idealism, imagination, hope, sunshine," dishonesty, cowardice, betrayal, jealousy, covetousness, deceit, illness, hazard. Sunshine could also be related to "East is Up", where sun rises. Makes me think more of a color that mean an optimistic change for the band which is leading to happiness and "killing their own DEMA's". As we could see on your video was already used on Heathens for that exact purpose, for a CHANGE, a change for "good".
Also yellow is the colour used in campaigns against suicide or depression, is really a colour that represents good changes in a persons life and on the struggle to overcome mental diseases.
"...He'll always try to stop me, that *Nicholas Bourbaki*
He's got no friends close but those who know him most know
He goes by *Nico* ..."
I am surrounded
i already knew about dema and i had all the pieces but this video just pieces everything together and my mind is boggled
ALSO TYLERS JUMPSUIT GOES FROM YELLOW TO ORANGE IN THE LAST SCENE
* Nadia Mundt * I noticed that too 7:05
* Nadia Mundt * DUDE! You're right! I didn't notice that
I have another theory to add to your heathens one. Tyler says “all my friends are heathens”. The definition of a heathen is “an unconverted member of a people or nation who does not acknowledge the God of the Bible”. What if Tyler and his “friends” are heathens to vialism (the religion created by the nine bishops of dema). In the first few lines of nico and the niners is reversed. It is josh saying “We are banditos, You will leave Dema and head true east, We renounce Vialism”. Josh is possibly the leader of the banditos. The first of the banditos to pop out are his friends/family. So what I’m saying is that the banditos are the heathens Tyler is referring to
Loved this so much. Thank you 🌸
Thank you so much for explaining this. I love the editing/video. Twenty one pilots is literally genius.
one little nitpick: i don't think Tyler/Clancy was captured again at the end of Jumpsuit. He's flowing down a stream with a yellow flower on his chest, and Nico watching from a short distance. i think it means more of a narrow escape of sorts, seeing as yellow represents the rebellion
ironicallyscreaming if you watch closely you can actually see Nico holding Tyler’s leg tho
If you watch more closely, you’ll actually find out that he has the black neck with nico over him ~_~
Well since the vid for nico and the niners is out, the flowers represent his failed escapes. (My possible theory) because nico is dragging him back.
HE was captured, in the new vdeo they show that, well i think so
Yellow is the color that represents suicide prevention.
Not to mention that nine officers go up to Tyler at the end of heathens
Captain SNES It seems to me they are 7 ( maybe like the 7 ruling Dema in Nico and the Niners ?)
What a wonderful video! Thank you so much!
Wow the editing is sooooo great❤️
I think Heathens happens after Jumpsuit : Tyler has the same cut on his nose but it looks a little faded in the Heathens video, kinda like it started to heal ! So to me Tyler was in Blurryface's car in HDS and he escaped thanks to Josh, then he started running away from Blurryface in Jumpsuit but he got caught at the end and that's why he ended up in prison in Heathens and that explains why it's related to Nico and the niners and why he hasn't escaped yet !!
Anyway, I really like how you analysed and explained everything and I agree with everything else you said !
BitchyLernJergi I think the scene with the car (in Jumpsuit & HDS) and the scene with the horse take place at two different times, or are metaphors for the same thing, but are separate
but we know HDS is a sequel to jumpsuit, otherwise how would he have the rebel clothing in the back of the car he got out from?
X13ful no I don't see how it could be a sequel because at the end of jumpsuit Tyler is captured by Blurryface and he doesn't have the cut on his nose in HDS... Maybe you're right but it don't see it that way, I think he had the rebel's clothes in his trunk the whole time because in HDS he already escaped Dema and Blurryface is probably trying to bring him back, that's why he's taking control of Tyler's car. But Josh is here with his drums and his yellow hair so the car breaks and catches fire and that's when we see Tyler at the beggining and end of Jumpsuit, he takes his rebel clothes out of the trunk and starts walking in Trench and then gets chased and caught by Blurryface. But idk maybe I'm wrong, we'll see !
BitchyLernJergi Look at his hair and clothes. One scene does not follow the other. The scene with the car is the sequel to HDS. But the scene with the horse is a different time period completely. I think the scene with Blurryface serves as a sequel or (prequel?) to Heathens.
What if I put it like this: in HDS tyler presents every signal of being detained by in an iron-fist ruled facility/company/whatever (shaved hair, dark and unified bland clothing) so by that logic when the car breaks it means he got out of DEMA after he got caught by blurryface in Jumpsuit right (we could also assume that the non-HDS scenes in jumpsuit are flashbacks based on how they edited them)? So then, he grabs his old rebel clothes at the end of Jumpsuit and sets out to gather with the rebelion. That's how I see it anyways
I know you know about the perspective of Clancy as a 3rd person watching all this... so I won't bother with that... But just... Rewatch the video and tell me the first scene of Tyler lying in the riverbed looking up and around isn't the actual ending. Because the actual beginning of the video (putting on the jacket, walking away from the car, heading to trench) is at the end... so it makes the beginning of the video gives us a little flashforward. He walks through the trench, sees the banditos, the bishop catches up, the petals create a diversion so Tyler can grab a flower, he makes a break, and then we see him in the river faking his death... and that's where he wakes up at the beginning of the MV. Lying in the river, looking around as if he's expecting to see people in the cliffs. Guys, Tyler actually does quite a bit of acting that gives us these clues...
I'm REALLY new like really here in the fandom, and i heard a lot things about dema & clancy n stuff. I didn't know what all that means, but this explains almost everything, thankyou :)
Thank you for tying in heathens because I honestly didn't realize any of that about it and agreed with everything else and now you've changed my mind.
Your editing is seriously top notch, and your theory is really well researched and thought out. Mad props (there’s a joke somewhere in here about that sick jacket being a mad prop but ???) .
i'll send a party out to search for this joke!
Also in the Nico and The Niners vid you can see Tyler packing all his stuff in a duffle and it’s the red beanie and the glasses from the blurry face era.
Great Job man. I thought I was a fan until now. Now I’m fanatical for 21 Pilots. Going to see them Nov. 20th here in Lincoln NE.
Nice work, this makes the album even more freaking awesome for me.
You’re cute, you’re funny, you’re really good at explaining things, you have great hair, you like twenty one pilots, like wow how is it possible to be this great?¿
Don't trust a perfect person xD
i love your edition
i love your voice
i love the way you explain
i freaking love the whole video
YOU MADE ME REALIZE SO MUCH MORE THINGS! WE MISSED SO MUCH
I keep coming back to this videoooo - I don’t know how it doesn’t have at least 10 million views. Like holy crap.
All 9 dislikes are the bishops
Zezorak 😂 I love it
Zezorak 😂😂😂😂😂
Nico is Tyler's alter ego, meaning that Tyler has disliked the video ;(
May I point out tyler also has scars on his face in heathens and in jumpsuit he has the same scars. This comment might help your theory so that helps link them!
bruh BRO this is such a well produced video like kUdoS! your editing? on POINT! yessss
Only 2 years! I'm 12 and have loved them since I was 7
