Twenty One Pilots are a musical duo from Columbus, Ohio, formed in 2009. They quite possibly have the most irritating fanbase in the history of music, otherwise known as "The Clique", who call both Tyler and Josh "Smol Beans" and claim that TØP (the bands abbreviation) have the deepest vocals known to mankind. Not only that, but they deem their genre as something unintelligible simply because they venture into different genres for different songs and albums. First and foremost, they aren't emo. Having lyrics that focus on emotional topics with a sad tone doesn't make a band emo. Sorry 13 year olds, maybe add some Taking Back Sunday into your musical diet. TØP are best described as alternative hip hop or indie pop. Their music is nothing more than a 4/10 for me personally, sorry basic pre-teens.
Person 1: Who're Twenty One Pilots?
Person 2: An alt-hip hop band who use synthesizers and ukelalies.
Person 1: Huh, sounds interesting!
Person 2: Oh lord..
~ Person 1 listens to Vessel ~
Person 2: How'd it go?
Person 1: I feel like I've heard this on the radio for the past 10 years.
Person 2: Exactly.
Person 1: Yup. Most interesting lyric was "I liked it better when my car had sound."
Person 2: A bunch of Tumblr SJW people think they're deep.
Person 1: Oh, of course they do. Sing anything about a mental illness with basic chords and a simple drum beat behind it and they'll buy it.

The gayest band on this earth. It consists of Tyler Joseph, who is a kitchen sink, but nobody knows what that means and Josh Dun who's putting on a drum show. They don't wanna be heard, they wanna be listen to. They're trying to collect all twenty one pilots. Tyler has a pet cheetah in his basement, his name's Jason Statham. Also they can't sleep. Basically That's the only thing they sing about. They're pretty cool people.
Person 1: HAVE YOU HEARD BREACH BY TWENTY ONE PILOTS? THE END OF THE TRECH SAGA IS INSANE. CLANCY BECOME A BISHOP?
Person 2: the only one insane thing is you

Twenty One Pilots is a band with potential, composed of a coward, Tyler Joseph, and a wonder of the world, Josh Dun. Their lyrics are deep, for example:
-I'm a bendy-toe
-Help me bowl of rice
-Josh Dun !
-I put my socks on my feet
-Tyler Joseph, Twenty One Pilots
-Help me bowl of rice
-Josh Dun !
-I put my socks on my feet
-Tyler Joseph, Twenty One Pilots
