Leak Theories - SPOILERS (DO NOT SEND LEAK)

[modest tinsel]

what a video to wake up to

[loud sluice]

i think it's fine to be disappointed since they haven’t dropped a single in two months, and when they do show up, they just troll us

[edgy wolf]

I disagree simply for the fact that a majority of this server didn't believe in the double album and a lot of the casuals at that time said "they just released a banger album, no need to expect more".

This fanbase cherishes the band and their work so much that even slightly critiquing songs or albums can be considered controversial.

Today was meant to be ragebait, and it was successful.

[keen bison]

Agreed, at least I have the Sonic CD OST to listen to.

[modest tinsel]

imo as long as they’re as consistent teasing this song as they were with the contract, i’ll be okay with waiting another week

[stone flame]

all feelings are valid but certain reactions/feelings aren’t productive. it’s okay to acknowledge how you’re feeling if it’s negative but allowing it to control you isn’t healthy

[jolly oyster]

It wasn’t a troll, it was quite literally a teaser. Isn’t that what we were wanting??

[last shore]

like i physically cannot help these dopamine crashes. i’ll get pissy after a while cause my brain needs new content.

[edgy wolf]

Based. US or JP?

[hollow agate]

it clearly was. they knew we would expect a music video and they knew we werent getting one

[atomic blaze]

Just realized Tyler isn’t committing to the full black sleeves/look in this. It’s been since before the hockey game

[lilac sandal]

I mean technically but it basically teases nothing more than was already teased with the insta story image a week ago

[edgy wolf]

Same, especially since TØP is one of the only modern bands I always enjoy so it's caused me to hyperfixate on them.

[lilac sandal]

This way of revealing it was definitely trollish

[keen bison]

I believe the US one? Its the 20th Anniversary Edition, so it could be both.

[red patrol]

I think they didn't know we knew Drum Show was coming. They probably filmed this before that info leaked. To the general public (and even some non-leak dedicated fans), this is the first they're hearing of it

[hoary field]

I like the crypticness of the band usually, but with this long of a gap between singles, I do wish they’d give us something concrete. A date (in plain, written English, not announced over an intercom one number at a time) would be sick

[keen bison]

nvm, it is US.

[jolly oyster]

Yall really thought they would spoon feed. This is just as cryptic as the contract release

[brittle depot]

hi any

[magic fjord]

it teases something (maybe a single???) but they didnt tell us what that something was, when its coming, or that it was even a single to begin with

[sharp hare]

Yeah but everything in moderation. It's fine to feel disappointed, but I'm talking about certain people that come here and rage and throw a tantrum because they didn't get new music. And being impatient isn't like... something to brag about or accept as just "part of who i am 😜 ". Patience is a virtue, and yall gotta learn to practice it lol. No offense, it's just not an excuse for the ones who come here to act out.

[edgy wolf]

Dude that soundtrack is such a banger! Especially Tidal Tempest and Metallic Madness.

[keen bison]

https://tenor.com/view/deltarune-undertale-friend-inside-me-fim-friend-gif-11113450260849856813

[hollow agate]

the contract had a release date and a countdown and new audio snippets and clips of the music video and lyrics. it also came not that long after breach announcement. there was zero new information here, or what it was even for if you're out of the loop

[random pivot]

no they just broke all our hearts collectively

[blazing breach]

i read your nickname and a mashup of kitchen sink and hds is spinning in my head
wonder how the LEAVE ME ALONE part would sound at the tempo of heavydirtysoul

[magic fjord]

even with the contract they told us it was a single, what it was called, and the release date

[last shore]

i have severe adhd, yk, the disorder where lack of attention is the main problem. i’m gonna be impatient if my brain is wired like that.

[hoary field]

Like, The Contract felt different, because the crypticness really only ramped up after the song was announced and had a release date. The cryptic posts felt like they were leading to something because there was that light at the end of the tunnel, there was an end in sight. With this single, we don’t know if it’s coming today, tomorrow, or next week, so it turns the hype into more of a guessing game

[last cove]

I thought it was funny and a neat teaser, i mean I can see how people got their hopes up, I did too, but this kind of silly teasing is very authentic to the band, and I think it was fun,
its totally valid to be disappointed, but I liked the video

[jolly oyster]

Prior to that they gave it through a series of post and scrambled letters. They could post about it later today or these week confirming

[blazing breach]

my bet is 4 pm et

[stone nova]

y'all need to find new hobbies if you're gonna obsess and argue over twenty one pilots' rollout plans lol. I get being upset it's not out but at the same time you can just distract yourself by doing other stuff in the meantime

[edgy wolf]

I think it's far easier to be patient when things are set in stone. Personally, all I want to know is if a new song is dropping before or after I go back to college.

[magic fjord]

yeah and thats what ive been saying theyll likely do but my point is its not like super crazy to expect a little more out of them given how little they actually gave us

[blazing breach]

let's wait for the next single release date & title confirmation

[hollow agate]

i think its entirely possible we get more in the coming days

[atomic blaze]

I’m very excited but man all this for a MV in a parking garage

(obviously they think the song is worth it so that’s what makes me hype)

[tawny wigeon]

bro its still a new song.

[atomic blaze]

I said I’m hyped for the song?

[hollow agate]

lets not judge the music video before we've seen it lol

[sharp hare]

Okay, but my point still stands. If it genuinely makes you so angry to not get new music that you feel the need to come to the server and post stuff like "this is such bullshit and this rollout is ass and i think their marketing sucks and this is all so stupid" then that's not cool and you need to find literally anything else to do. It's not healthy lol. I wasn't aiming that at you directly, there are individuals here who really act out when they don't get their way, and that's who I'm addressing

[hoary field]

The crypticness and lack of concrete details also hits different after a relatively silent month. I love the boys, they’ve never disappointed me, but I did kinda drop out of checking the discord and stuff everyday sometime last month, the hype kinda simmered out for me at least

[tawny wigeon]

yeah but you said “all this for a MV in a parking garage”

[blazing breach]

eastern time

july 16 : they went live on insta at 10 am and posted the breach teaser at 2 pm

august 11 : they went live on youtube at 12 pm and ???

[atomic blaze]

I meant the teasers/roll out and then followed by saying that must mean the song is worth it

Can’t say anything these days lol

[hoary field]

I do think getting genuinely angry about it is a little much, because there is the definitive date of September 12. No matter what dates the singles come out, they’ll all be there on Sept 12

[stone flame]

people get real upset when you even imply that they can focus on other things to fill their time

[last shore]

im thinking 5 PM, due to 8 + 1 + 8 being 17, and 17 is 5 PM

[atomic blaze]

I would expect this for a lore video is all I’m saying

Obviously the song is gonna rip if Mojib is excited for it

[tawny wigeon]

sorry i misread, but my point was basically i think it’s special cause it’s a new song

[tawny wigeon]

yeah there’s no need to get angry lol

[stone nova]

yeahhh 🥲

[errant onyx]

That's just the Ohio license plate logo

[stone nova]

can confirm

[last shore]

unless i’m going too far deep into this

[stone nova]

nono I think that's a valid guess, it's either that or 8/18

I'm really hoping you're right lmao

[tawny wigeon]

i still don’t think 8/18 is the release date. i’m probably coping

[atomic blaze]

I agree Monday is a weird choice

[stone nova]

monday's a weird choice, but also announcing it exactly a week before would make sense

[last shore]

especially since those announcements were separated from each other.

[hollow agate]

when 818 is a red herring and they surprise drop it tomorrow then you'll all see

[last shore]

by like minutes.

[atomic blaze]

Kendall Jenner has a tequila brand called 818 this is probably an advertisement for that

[tawny wigeon]

i think they’ll post an official teaser soon confirming it all. and i’m hoping it’s gonna be this week release but idk

i just feel like everything else has pointed towards this week, and i can’t think why they’d wait till a random monday 🤷‍♂️

[hoary field]

I think if they drop it next Monday, it’d still feel like a shadow drop. Casual fans aren’t focused on the 818 thing. So to a lot of people, it’d be like they never announced it at all. Which sounds pretty sick now that I think about it lololol

[tawny wigeon]

but they might post more teasers this week

[last shore]

the first three digits of my moms phone number are 818. maybe she knows /silly

[atomic blaze]

In all seriousness I think Blurryface will come back this week . The title of the video is titled like a surveillance tape and they keep uploading and deleting shit like our bestie blurry

[stone nova]

orrr they're gonna make their own tequila brand so we can get our minds off of the lack of rollout information

[hoary field]

Oh yeah true true

[last shore]

should i watch south park while i wait

[fresh quiver]

you mean south peak

[stone nova]

yes they always come when you're busy

[last shore]

also they’ve always posted stuff whenever i updated my fanfic. it’s such a weird coincidence.

[hoary field]

Luckily for me, this rollout will never and could never be worse than 10000 gecs. iykyk

[ivory trout]

Tomorrow is such a perfect date to release, exactly a month before the album. And the contract was also released at June “12th” too

[stone nova]

it may be time for another update

[last shore]

also did i ever tell yall about how i accidentally accurately predicted dema lore with my scaled and icy era fanfic.

[stone nova]

that's what I thought as well

[hollow agate]

the 12th simply makes too much sense for this rollout /j

[stone nova]

WAIT WHAT 😭

[fresh quiver]

did you. write the joshler one

[last shore]

no im not that insane.

[tawny wigeon]

josh has been seen eating dinner with friends, right after performing psychological torment on his fanbase

[last cove]

please write the next one quickly,
we need another post lol

[last shore]

why does this feel like something we would analyze if it were tyler

[last shore]

i gotta update letters to nobody anyways. if i don’t my tumblr fans will get mad /silly

[loud sluice]

they made that stream so we could farm stickers and gifs lol

[blazing breach]

lets think logically

the parking lot where they filmed the video has only 4 levels
therefore, this voice, that sounds robotic, was edited in

in the context of the lore, the levels may be the towers of dema
on the city map, tower 1 belongs to andre and tower 8 belongs to vetomo
in the blurryface cover orientation, tower 1 belongs to keons and tower 8 belongs to nico

the video also wasnt accompanied by any posts on social media

the video looks as if the boys dont realize theyre being filmed
its as if someone did it and just uploaded the premiere to their channel without their knowledge

-# what the hell is going on

[ivory trout]

Robot voices

[tawny wigeon]

they’re definitely gonna follow it up with official posts on socials, if they don’t then i’m truly confused .

[oblique goblet]

Im liking your analysis so far, keep going!

[blazing breach]

honestly to me it looks like blurrys shenanigans

[tawny wigeon]

it definitely could be blurry watching them, and he’s cut it off right before they start performing

[eternal badger]

So 8/18, kind of confirms august 18th right, damn bro theyre fr taking their time

[blazing breach]

kind of yup
but not literally

[fleet arch]

Where did 8/18 come from?

[oak dome]

cook

[vast hamlet]

can i gold this

[hoary field]

I remember thinking the footage from the teasers felt like a sort of collection of evidence, and this video being some sort of surveillance video is totally something I could see being true. I’m liking your theory. cooked. ate.

[vast hamlet]

i chuckled

[vast hamlet]

announcements over the pa during the video

[tawny wigeon]

idk, i personally don’t think this is the release date

until they confirm it officially i’m holding out, just doesn’t add up imo (the announcements do but not for the single release after everything we’ve seen)

[gentle rose]

Yeah me neither

[tawny wigeon]

we shall see what happens

[ember hatch]

I don't want to believe the 8/18 date, I'm really hoping it release this week

[gentle rose]

Are you holding out for tomorrow

[opal loom]

tomorrow please

[glacial crane]

I'm pretty set on the 18th sadly

[tawny wigeon]

this week as a whole

[stone hornet]

Is this a blur reference

[gentle rose]

I personally don’t believe for a second they will post this kind of live video and leave us on that for a week straight

[blazing breach]

same

[vagrant rapids]

Romans 8:18 states: "For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us" If you haven't already seen this in the theories chat

[opal loom]

same its already been too long

[tawny wigeon]

i just think the whole apple music stuff, why wait till next monday which is literally a random monday… makes no sense imo. we’ll see how they follow today’s video up

[stone hornet]

With the bible quote this is interesting but probably a coincidence because you could whip out a random quote from the bible and it would be likely to relate in some way to the lore

[blazing breach]

in terms of storytelling, they should ”notice” that the video was uploaded without any posts and accompany it

[austere thunder]

IM GONNA CRASH OUT

[tawny wigeon]

they will follow it up on socials officially soon, they have to

[ember hatch]

If it don't release tomorrow, I still have hope that would be this week (I'm delusional)

[blazing breach]

my headcanon is that blurry sometimes takes control of tyler and does things like this, and then josh sighs and makes it part of the marketing

kinda
funny

[ember hatch]

Maybe we could make a fanfic out of that

[glacial crane]

theres something hidden in the static

its squished downward but when you lift it up that is DEFINITELY words

"I want to change" spaced out strangely, it looks like

[oak dome]

!?!?!?!?!

[random pivot]

what

[glacial crane]

"WANT TO" atleast seems visible there

[stone hornet]

Do you have a timestamp?

[muted axle]

I've been this way
i want to change

[glacial crane]

it flashes repeatedly through the video

[tired token]

i genuinely see this

[muted axle]

yeah this practically confirmes it to be drum show

[glacial crane]

exactly but it doesn't look like "change"

[glacial crane]

the ending when it goes black, it flashes over and over

when the static looks like

---

instead of just a straight line

[oak dome]

COOK

[last cove]

i think this is just how vhs overlays look when scaled up,
not saying it's impossible, but here's just three examples i randomly found onlinne

when you scale it vertically of course it might start to look like letters, the "I want to change" thing seems like confirmation bias

[edgy wolf]

Biblical analogy for how this rollout has driven us crazy.

[tawny wigeon]

i can’t tell

[lucid karma]

16th release trust

[last cove]

tomorrow 🤞

[fleet arch]

🙂‍↕️

[ember hatch]

It probably is a stupid idea, but when I get back home I'll try frame by frame every line at the end of the video and see if it says something in morse

[lucid karma]

This isn’t us guys…

Anyways, if you stop it every time it glitches up probs gives an image.

[last shore]

or could be added up to 17. which is 5PM in 24 hour time.

i say we wait until 5 EST

[ember hatch]

Fair enough

[lofty pike]

Ooooo

[lucid karma]

Also did no one notice there’s a BIG ASS 6 in the background??

[narrow reef]

i did i did

[last cove]

those are the sections i think, you can see an 8 and a 7 if you look closely

[lucid karma]

Yeah but why would they film exactly there, it’s on purpose.

[last shore]

if you’re in pacific time that’d be 2 PM i think

[lucid karma]

Lemme try downloading on Apple Music see if there’s anything new

[last shore]

all parking garages have sections

[last cove]

really any angle you can see the pillars would show the numbers

[lucid karma]

Yes I know . But this camera position emphasizes the 6

[ember hatch]

Nah, here in chile we have the same time zone, so it's 5 pm for me

[random pivot]

are they really not posting any more today

[last shore]

they could be

[last cove]

i think the main takeaway would be the intercom voice in terms of important numbers

[last shore]

again i say we wait until 5PM EST, due to 8+1+8=17

[lucid karma]

Mark said something about gluttony on one of his stories, means we’re getting a lot of material

[last shore]

and est is the same timezone the boys are in

[summer mist]

So either 68553818

Or 85538186

[lucid karma]

Also , the lisence plate on the car. FPE 8553

Did you point this out already?

[last cove]

right now the most likely theory is the
phone keypad = TJ JD (Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun)

also i've seen some people say 8 + 5 + 5 + 3 = 21 but idk if that means anything

[smoky tangle]

breaching out.. on my drum show...

[lucid karma]

Nvm you did

[last shore]

who wants to theorize over a glass of lemonade:3

[lucid karma]

85-53 is 32 which divided by 2 is 16. So my theory still stands

[last shore]

i have lemonade :3

[ember hatch]

Would be nice actually but I can't 😭

[last cove]

but what indication is there to do multiple math operations to get that? usually something like that would be a straightforward code or pattern

[prime sparrow]

not you bruh..

[last shore]

we should see if the 5 PM theory is true cause that’s coming up soon.

[lucid karma]

Hey Asher how’s it going, I’m a participant of the community now

[oak dome]

was just thinking bout that lmao

[oak dome]

is that guy still not your friend?

[blazing breach]

hi arsu
hows your friend

[prime sparrow]

aint no way..

[lucid karma]

Mb for not leaking Clancy like damn

[prime sparrow]

legit question.. twenty one pilots dogshit roll out can wait..

[oak dome]

i didn’t think id see a rollout worse than i am music but here we are

[lucid karma]

I moved away

[smoky tangle]

yo but like they literally did a drum show

[lucid karma]

Tyler has a c on his shirt

I think it’s for chocolate

[austere thunder]

that's my birthday that would actually be so cool

[lucid karma]

Ur birthday is 2 days after mine

[wary dome]

If its come out tommorow its okay that we still dont have track length? Do we have track length before release?

[sterile glen]

not usually no

[tawny wigeon]

can they give us this MV rn this outfit is too 🔥

[blazing breach]

uhmmm....

[random pivot]

?

[blazing breach]

kinda similar

[random pivot]

what is

[shadow mirage]

i kinda see it, but i think thats a bit of a stretch

[random pivot]

i know what the statue is but what is it similar to in that pic

[blazing breach]

nothing is a stretch with that boy right

[shadow mirage]

true not going to lie

[tawny wigeon]

where is that shirt fromm

[stone hornet]

Looks custom made

[tawny wigeon]

so nice

their stylist is always so good, but clancy + breach particularly have looked amazing

[tawny wigeon]

looks similar yea

[urban summit]

i actually think thats his best outfit i love it

and the hair too is just 😍😍

[random pivot]

oooh the shirt

i mean i personally dont really see it but ig you never know

[lofty pike]

I wanna know if the haircut has any implication, considering buzzing it is always does

But this one is only shaved on the sides

[proper kayak]

Did i miss anything from today? I was at the mall for like 20 minutes waiting for two dudes in the parking area blocking the exit.

(But rlly, what is going on? Anything interesting from this 20 minutes long nothingness?)

[shadow mirage]

did the dudes play anything or no

[proper kayak]

They did. They played their fans

[untold granite]

So drum show this week?🫩

[queen swallow]

My autistic ass thought you were actually at the mall and asking for updates lmao

[untold granite]

Or next week ?🫠

[proper kayak]

They showed their drums already. Piece by piece

[lofty pike]

As an autistic, I thought that too, it took me a min. I was like “wow! What a coincidence!”

[queen swallow]

Hahaha exactly!

[proper kayak]

I made this funny haha joke absolutely for you, the autistic people😍 thank you for understanding

[errant crown]

https://tenor.com/view/josh-hutcherson-gif-8049018887138819919

[tawny wigeon]

so goodd

[shadow mirage]

i love this band so much, but i definetly wish i wasn’t a diehard fan from time to time

[tawny wigeon]

no way they meet peeta from the hunger games

[gentle rose]

These August 18 ideas are making me uneasy didn’t our friendly leaker say it’ll either release tomorrow or Thursday

[blazing breach]

ig we gotta wait

[fiery nova]

Why does his leg have antlers

[tawny wigeon]

it'll probably be the 18th... but idk it doesnt seem right imo.

[sharp hare]

I don't think any of our leakers have good info at this point, it seems like the band has intentionally given out band info in some cases, like the fake tracklist that Mojib saw. I don't think any of them are lying, but I don't think we can trust any of their info completely.

Can anybody remind me of whether there have been previous singles that released on a Monday? There probnably have been but I don't rmember

[blazing breach]

mojib knows a lot for sure
but he cant share it

[nova bough]

I still trust in tmrw, I dont think they would do this if the song wont come out until the 18th
This joke today, and the song tomorrow
And dont forget from the 12th there is only one month to go to

[blazing breach]

im still hoping for today latenight activity

[nova bough]

I wish we dont need to wait for the 18th

[blazing breach]

they should accompany the video with a post
at least

[sacred apex]

What happened
I been busy all day

[gentle rose]

I doubt TOP would do something like this damn livestream and then make us wait a whole week

Didn’t Tyler explicitly say he doesn’t like pulling the rug out from under us

[past panther]

True

[plain cliff]

Then he made them not post anything for 2 months

[blazing breach]

they may still feed us a few more crumbs this week

[plain cliff]

And also he has lied explicitly before with other stuff lol

[blazing breach]

but the tracklist and breach teaser

[stiff fable]

guys imma be honest

[smoky tangle]

someone please tell me this is ai

[stiff fable]

I have no idea what this means

there was a bit in that server where everyone pretended to be mojib (idk don’t ask me) and then the real one popped in and said that

[regal otter]

wtf

he's been so wrong this era though :((

[stark pebble]

did we actually get confirmation of tomorrow LOL

[stark pebble]

i wonder if he's making fun of us or if it actually is dropping tomorrow

[gentle rose]

No but given the contract dropped June 12 and Breach is out September 12, August 12 is a strong theory

[tawny wigeon]

hmm

[tawny wigeon]

this is what ive been thinking this whole time, but id, maybe they'll just do another tease

[last shore]

my theory was incorrect.

[stiff fable]

I literally can’t tell

[gentle rose]

Hopefully he’s being fr and TOP drop the video at noon tmr

[marble wasp]

guys Top is online on youtube

[modest arrow]

nahhh i honestly think its just getting announced tomorrow for 8/18, why else would it be in the vid

[marble wasp]

Nvm !!!

[gentle rose]

Cause it’s garage announcements

Idc if the garage is only 4 levels TOP will not leave us on a nothing video for a full week

[smoky tangle]

yeah but its planned garage announcements..

[stark pebble]

guys is this top

[last shore]

and my 5 o’clock theory didn’t work out so it must be a date

[glacial crane]

fredbear tweak gif

[tawny wigeon]

ok why is he doing this

[gentle rose]

Bro is trying to troll us

[tawny wigeon]

drum show shadow drop tmrw. announcements were to throw us off

[last cove]

while 818 doesn't have to mean August 18th
you can't deny they added those announcements themselves,
garage announcements aren't usually a thing, and if they were they wouldn't leave them in
its the sample sample as drum show as well,
plus the exact 3 minute intervals
there's 0 chance they didn't add the level announcements themselves

[tawny wigeon]

yeah they did add them for sure

im just coping cause i dont want to wait a week, but tbh it is only a week and at least we know that we're getting it.

[gentle rose]

Wait a sec, 818 is the LA area code, they were just there filming the video

[tawny wigeon]

wait

[tacit iris]

i thought the same but i don't think it's related

[gentle rose]

Interesting

[tawny wigeon]

perhaps they are telling us we are on the right path. things are coming

[oak dome]

Ight silv let's get you to bed buddy

[jolly oyster]

Him waiting to get up on 1 seems like something worth looking into

[tawny wigeon]

"make the change you have been resisting" = release a single after months of silence

[gentle rose]

That’s interesting

[neat swift]

Both Ashley and Mojib have hinted at Garbage 👀

[tawny wigeon]

so there is the possibility its not just a date

[neat swift]

Wait but then why wouldn’t Garbage be registered

And Drum Show is literally on Apple Music

[blazing breach]

what a garbage song meh

[atomic blaze]

Watching Mojib descend into madness because of this fanbase is the real lore

[neat swift]

We hear Drum Show in the livestream today

[toxic thicket]

Why did this pretty much happen, why did Tyler ragebait us?

[random pivot]

what is he even doin now 😭

[quick crane]

Guys I figured it out
818 means it’s coming out on the 8th day of the 18th month /j

[blazing marsh]

car plate is irrelevant to lore (for sure)

the service level thing is probably true, else i think it's gonna drop tomorrow

[blazing marsh]

june 8th 2026 💔

[random pivot]

let’s not forget this

[raw wedge]

818 los Angeles area code is all i have to say

[tawny wigeon]

and they were filming in LA...

[blazing marsh]

verdict i think is that tomorrow we get an announcement for drum show/robot voices (or both?) dropping on the 18th

[tawny wigeon]

probably the most likely situation

[regal otter]

why would they make it a big deal though

[stark pebble]

does this mean something irl

[quick crane]

I full on thought they ment a bee as in a ‘B’😭

[random pivot]

didnt we already know the la filming was a different vid tho

[blazing marsh]

yeah

[gentle rose]

Yeah

[blazing marsh]

because drum show was already registered (isrc) for one, and also this parking lot is in ohio (i believe?)

[random pivot]

drum show garbage dual drop

[blazing marsh]

and we're pretty confident this video is drum show

[tawny wigeon]

may we have slowmode turned down or removed

[regal otter]

if they're teasing 818 as in LA because theyre dropping two songs, including the one shot in LA, i'll loose my mind

[random pivot]

realistically if we were supposed to get a double single drop wouldn’t we previously drop when they uploaded drum show in the irsc code

[blazing marsh]

when? (timestamp)

[random pivot]

like what i’m asking is when jumpsuit dropped did both jumpsuit and natn appear or was it just one of them

[regal otter]

no idea :((

[neat swift]

13:35

its every announcement

but thats the first time

[blazing marsh]

well are those announcements added in? or are those actual announcements that can play at the garage. if the latter, it's just the jingle. those few notes/chords aren't identifying enough i don't think

[neat swift]

the announcements are added in

there is no level 8

[glacial crane]

it's the exact same thing lawl

[blazing marsh]

ig

the teasers throw me off so much though honestly

[last cove]

also they wouldn't just randomly leave announcements in the video if they didn't want them,
also also the parking garage only has 4 levels irl, not 8

[sacred cobalt]

Yeah atp its really august 18

[blazing marsh]

yeah i figured that, i more meant like does that garage use an announcement that sounds like that.

i don't really think that garages even generally have an intercom like that though

[blazing marsh]

yeah but i do think they'll officially announce it in the next day or so

[last cove]

yeah it's definitely the drum show sample, not a sound the garage would use, never heard of a garage intercom

[blazing marsh]

at least not in ohio

[hollow agate]

genuinely that seems like the most logical conclusion to make

[blazing marsh]

no guys it's dropping august 2018

[tawny wigeon]

it’s the same as the teaser just with reverb/echo

[neat swift]

but higher quality/less distorted

[toxic thicket]

I won't believe the hype

[tacit iris]

would be so funny if drum show was actually just a piano ballad

[tawny wigeon]

at this point it’s definitely august 18th, and tbh at least this is our final week of waiting. it’ll be here before we know it

[blazing marsh]

here let me clown guys

they'll drop robot voices too because it's an "ai" that's announcing over the intercom 😱 😱 😱

[sacred cobalt]

Inb4 august 18 is the official announcement and we get the song on sept 4

[regal otter]

HAHAHA

[hollow agate]

having an end date in sight at least really helps!!

[blazing marsh]

if they do that 💔

[hollow agate]

dont give them ideas 😭

[blazing marsh]

august 18th they're gonna release that drum show is on the album

[regal otter]

on another topic do we still all agree that The Contract is a perfect single ??? i think its an insane song

[blazing marsh]

"this is a bts of our music video for drum show, a song on our new record, Breach. coming to you september 12"

[last cove]

it's definitely up there, i wouldn't say it's 100% perfect, but I absolutely love it

[regal otter]

releasing a bts without the actual song would be so fucking funny

[sacred cobalt]

Now imagine they release the mv with no sound

[urban summit]

all youd hear is just josh’s drums. itd be like the vessel livestream all over again

[blazing marsh]

maybe that video WAS the song. the notes are played in the video that we heard from the teaser.

hey, anything's possible

[urban summit]

and at 144p at 30 fps. good luck making out the words!

[regal otter]

i would adore it

[blazing marsh]

200x200pixel 12fps with gaussian blur and crt scan lines

[regal otter]

loved it when they said "lets go!" in the video and they did in fact, not go

[blazing marsh]

can we sign a petition to get tøp to officially release their stems

[hollow agate]

top tier ragebait

[blazing marsh]

i want the line stems so bad because the synth is wayyy too quiet

[blazing marsh]

tøp tier*

[regal otter]

manifesting the song leaking in 7mn before i go to bed 🙏

[last shore]

i think they’ve been so quiet but they’ve had the moments where they aren’t cause they’re TRYING to stay quiet. Drum Show will be lore related.

[blazing breach]

the live began at 12 pm
after 8 hours, itll be 8 pm
8:18
think

[blazing marsh]

i think 8:18pm is a little clowny

[pseudo oyster]

if i'm asleep for drum show...

[blazing marsh]

i'll ping the shit out of you dw

[narrow reef]

how many songs do we think they'd release

[blazing breach]

ig they could make a tweet with the release date

[night oar]

Did anybody else notice that the time duration 21:26 on YouTube is the same as the two added tour dates? 9/21 Toronto and 10/26 LA.

[gentle rose]

Another thing that pisses me off is I absolutely love the style of these teasers like it’s a slideshow switching slides, with the contract and the tracklist

Idk I just wish we got more of that

[tawny wigeon]

i love the vibe of that live so much, idk how to explain it but it’s just creepy, hopefully the mv has that visual style and vibe as well

[stone flame]

i never know what is intentional or just a coincidence anymore

[ember hatch]

Hi guys any updates?

[lofty pike]

I’m back too

[lofty pike]

For me, it’s 21:25 so idk

[lofty pike]

I hope so

[blazing marsh]

and FPE8553 literally just means fpe (all the different definitions we have) and 8553 = 21 (8+5+5+3) but also 8553 on a phone numpad spells TJ JD

if anyone didn't already notice that, so the license plate is very likely completely lore unrelated

[night oar]

Interesting. 🤔

[lofty pike]

35*

[muted axle]

oh very interesting

[lofty pike]

21:35, sorry.
It goes like this

[bright island]

Could the sound before the announcements be part of the track, or is it just the standard sound used for such announcements? ’Cause it sounds pretty cool and mysterious

[lofty pike]

It is part of drum show. We know from the snippets from a few weeks ago

[lofty pike]

You can hear the same piano in drum show’s snippet from that Instagram live 🥹

[random pivot]

has anyone transcribed the stream yet

like does anyone have everything that tyler and josh say on the vid

[lofty pike]

I don’t have everything, but I know there’s that moment where Tyler shoes Josh something on his phone (you can vaguely hear the drum show piano again right before it) and Tyler says something like “do you think we’ll be visible?” They chat back and forth about a bit and he says “that’d be crazy” or something and then says “we gotta figure it out, it can’t look like that” or something along those lines

[night oar]

When I actually play the video it still says 21:25. If we go by the 21 25 that adds up to 3 and 7. On the track list three is Drum Show and seven is Robot Voices. Could we be getting one this week and one next or both on 8/18? 🤔

[lofty pike]

It looks/sounds like in that moment he might’ve been watching part of the video or something cause you can hear the piano again, but not due to the announcements. Perhaps he’s playing it on his phone.

[lofty pike]

Oh it is 21:25 😭 I wrote it down as 21:35 gosh

[austere thunder]

For those curious: I called 818 373 (FPE) 8553 and the number does not exist

[last shore]

but it’s intentional considering license plates are sensitive/personal information, hence why google maps blurs them so you can’t find info on the drivers if you’re in street view

[lofty pike]

Yeah but it could likely just be an Easter egg

[blazing marsh]

intentional, yes. related to a release or lore? no. as sisi said, it's probably just an easter egg

[austere thunder]

Like Fuel Petrol Etc

[lofty pike]

How many FPE interpretations have there been?

[random pivot]

i see

[austere thunder]

Off the top of my head
Few Proud Emotional
Fuel Petrol Etc
Fan Premiere Exhibit
First Pressing Edition

[edgy wolf]

There's also Food, Petrol Etc. from Mulberry Street in the livestream.

[edgy wolf]

Today in a nutshell:

[gentle rose]

at least we know were getting it by next monday

[blazing marsh]

i'd say we're the FPE

Fucking Poached of Explanation

[thin copper]

FDrum PShow ETomorrow 🔥

[blazing breach]

just watching the rab series
theyve made it this far 🥹

[glacial crane]

8553 = 8/(5+5+3) right guys!

[last solar]

even the pilots won't make me do math

[soft mason]

Wait 8/18 is debunked right

[main knoll]

… not that I’m aware of, why /gen

[soft mason]

Idk if it got sent in here but mojib pretty much debunked a Monday release

[main knoll]

He said it was uncommon from what I remember seeing, not impossible 🤷‍♀️ besides I’m reeeeeeally taking all the “info” from everyone who isn’t the band with a grain of salt at this point

[soft mason]

I’m just thinking that with such little promo, a Monday release would be even worse in terms of business

[main knoll]

I don’t disagree with you there for sure. Just not convinced we can rule it out either

[gentle rose]

Mojib seems to be dropping a bunch of hints toward tomorrow. Idk why but that was my initial hope so idk

[gentle rose]

Send it here

[last solar]

what if something else will happen on the 18th... like something lore related

[gentle rose]

Even if it has been sent we need a refresher

[blazing breach]

the last thing he has said to us

[gentle rose]

I'm sticking by next Monday honestly. No need to keep this self destructive daily cycle going 😂

[blazing breach]

11 minutes until 8:18

[gentle rose]

But TOP aren’t cruel enough to leave us on a nothing video for a whole week right

[white anchor]

[gentle rose]

IF they had filmed it 10 days before that teaser then there may be a chance its not even done

[blazing breach]

– we said after 2 weeks of silence
and then another 2 weeks of silence

[gentle rose]

The next semester MV was filmed 10 days before it dropped

I reckon they've recorded two big lore videos to end the story already and are working on those over a longer period

[dim island]

i really doubt thats the plan

[gentle rose]

Exactly my point

[blazing breach]

what are 8 1 8 then..

[dim island]

not the release date

[blazing breach]

itd be cool if theyre 8:18 pm today right

[dim island]

prolly not that either

[blazing breach]

for a tweet right

[gentle rose]

7 minutes and we’ll find out I guess

[blazing breach]

its 3 am for me..

[gentle rose]

What the hell are you awake for

[blazing breach]

ive insomnia

[wild raven]

same

[last shore]

for some reason a crow just started cawing at me (i worship the greek gods, and crows are a symbol of Apollon, the god of music) and stopped when i started singing paladin so maybe we’re getting something else tonight :3

[keen bison]

4 minutes until nothing (/j)

[gentle rose]

Yeah probably. I definitely think tomorrow is a huge possibility tho

[blazing breach]

knowing them, they could skip tomorrow easily

minute..

[keen bison]

AAAAAAND NOTHING!!

[last shore]

DAMN IT

[keen bison]

...Nothing!

[blazing breach]

alright
maybe 8:18 am tomorrow

[keen bison]

I'd be asleep :(

[last shore]

who wants to pull an all nighter with me :3

[lofty pike]

Any new developments

[gentle rose]

No

[lofty pike]

Meeeee

[blazing breach]

me

[last shore]

big week for clikkies, swifties, and AJR fans apparently

[neat swift]

swifties?

[last shore]

taylor swift might be announcing her 12th album this week

[neat swift]

oh no

[jolly oyster]

Hi any new

[ivory trout]

No new

[blazing breach]

unfortunately

[dim island]

they seem to like releasing on Wed, Thur, and Fri, so it'd make sense if tomorrow they announce the song coming Wednesday or Thursday

[blazing breach]

we should stop saying “it makes sense” honestly
it just doesnt work

[dim island]

my apologies.. it would be cool if they did that

[blazing breach]

knowing them..
they could skip tomorrow easily

[gentle rose]

They don’t usually release singles on Fridays tho. They have done quite a few on Tuesdays tho

[dim island]

thatd be even better

[gentle rose]

I’m definitely thinking they’ll do another livestream or premiere tomorrow at noon

But this time actually go instead of saying let’s go

[eternal badger]

when was this

[gentle rose]

Like they didn’t drive a van full of instruments to a garage just for the livestream today

[dim island]

i mean we were right this one time (well ignore the months prior) about activity at 12 today

[gentle rose]

What I wonder is why they’re keeping the video up on YouTube under live

[eternal badger]

it was probably filmed when they made the music video like weeks ago, during tylers story. They just did what they did today to announce the single

[gentle rose]

They didn’t really announce anything it was a long winded tease

[eternal badger]

8/18 is kinda given and makes the most sense

[gentle rose]

It doesn’t make the most sense tho

[blazing breach]

4:59 pm et

[eternal badger]

wdym

[gentle rose]

Like TOP can’t leave us on a nothing video for a full week, also TOP haven’t released on mondays unless the song leaked afaik

[split sierra]

since it was a livestream not a premiere its probably gonna stay that way

[dim island]

no this stream was a comeback they wouldnt do something like this on a monday if they didnt plan on something else this week

[eternal badger]

theyve left us with nothing for a full month, wouldnt be surpised

[blazing breach]

isnt that the automated sorting?

[gentle rose]

That’s exactly my point. They can’t leave us on a nothing video for a whole week something else needs to happen

[gentle rose]

Well yeah but that’s not what I mean. Like who would need to rewatch that

[blazing breach]

uhmm..

[dim island]

No reason to watch it again ever

[digital gyro]

Great now whenever I see a parking garage I get ptsd from today

[lofty pike]

Yeah It was filmes august 1st, That’s when we got the pic of Josh on tyler’s Story and you can see Him take it during the livestream.

Why the heck is my phone capitalizing random crap

[marble wasp]

Pls drop tomorrow )))):

teasing it 1 week before release is just evil and mean and i- cries in emo

[shadow mirage]

good morning

I assume after the live, they have been quiet?

[atomic blaze]

Yup

[shadow mirage]

Well, as expected tbh.

[granite monolith]

tbh, I dont expect anything until the 18th

[magic fjord]

nah i think theres gonna be proper clarification at least

[shadow mirage]

we will get something definetly until that

[lofty pike]

Total silence for another week would be evil

Then again.. we are in Dark Clancy era…. But still. Surely.

[rapid nest]

lets pray for tommarow, hope its not gonna be garbage

will it be garbage? no idea

desicions decisions

[unkempt wagon]

After what they did today I don't expect anything anymore

[lilac sandal]

For me, Garbage is my most anticipated song on the album

[edgy wolf]

Meanwhile, Swifties just got a countdown announcing a new album...

[lilac sandal]

so I'd love it to be Garbage, but happy with Drum Show too

[rapid nest]

please not September album

[edgy wolf]

It's hard for me to predict literally anything about how Drum Show will feel or sound. Even the snippet is so vague.

[wary dome]

Taylor is just being soft on her fans.

[edgy wolf]

If Drum Show ends up being one of the best tracks on the album, I'll admit that I wasn't expecting such.

[rapid nest]

btw one month left

https://tenor.com/view/twenty-one-pilots-tyler-joseph-josh-dun-happy-hip-bump-gif-10519119735252757314

[edgy wolf]

GARBAGE YOU

[white anchor]

🗑️ 🫵

[rapid nest]

the second single is hopefully not garbage

[neat swift]

The livestream we got has the piano from Drum Show

It’s for sure going to be Drum Show

[rapid nest]

did i mean as a song title or did I meant literally? I dont know

do i know? know I know. yes!

[granite monolith]

I think theres a 0% chance it isnt drum show

[rapid nest]

maybe

how would i know

[granite monolith]

the whole stream was literally setting up drums, would be weird for it not to be

[atomic blaze]

It’s looking like a late Sept/early Oct (I hope)

[blazing marsh]

i hope that's one of those albums that just never come out and the artist retires

i mean whattttttt???????? i didn't say thatttttt

[rapid nest]

not before or during September 12

[blazing marsh]

i would never wish something bad upon taylor swift, WHO would do that?!?!??!???!?

[granite monolith]

0% chance taylor retires when shes ~~ making so much money~~ so passionate about the music she makes

[blazing marsh]

you struck through the wrong one, i think you had it right the first time

[rapid nest]

the title is so generic as well

[blazing marsh]

guys her music is so good!!!!

song 1: progression
song 2: same progression
song 3: same progression

lyrics:

song 1: lyrics
song 2: similar lyrics
song 3: similar lyrics

production: bad

[granite monolith]

that do be in fact the joke

[rapid nest]

anyways, I hope the album will do good (breach) no matter what

[blazing marsh]

i know

[granite monolith]

no no see when she releases the same song but calls it a demo (despite probably having been done after the original) its totally different!

[hasty escarp]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1274822687255957551/1404503843030564914/ChairYEET.gif

[neat swift]

With how many times you’ve said it seems you know

Honestly I would love Garbage as a single

[edgy wolf]

They already shot themselves in the foot with this rollout, but there's a slight chance the second single could revive the hype train.

[neat swift]

So I could say I’m listening to Garbage even sooner

[edgy wolf]

Breach is clearly for the fans.

[granite monolith]

im kinda dreading it coming out because that will signal another month of silence

[rapid nest]

how do you explain the contract music video to a non-fan

[edgy wolf]

Or the BLURRYFACE tweets leading up to it.

[rapid nest]

how do you explain twenty one pilots at all to a non-fan

[edgy wolf]

...ya don't.

[granite monolith]

tbf... kinda easily? tyler gets confronted with his own struggles and we see the storm inside his own head trying to cope with it

[atomic blaze]

TS’s album artwork and songs already leaked why can’t leakers buckle up for top

[blazing marsh]

taylor swift songs all sound the same and when people say "you've never listened to her music!!!!"

well then give me a couple songs that don't sound the same. every single one i've heard, and i've heard a lot, (NOT with my consent) has sounded the same.

her production quality is also steamy hot wrinkly ass. her vocals are okay, and her lyrics are bad.

"she's so poetic!!!!!" lyrics: "he got in his car, and went to the bar, and now i am sad and crying a lot" (not real lyrics)

[rapid nest]

its kept secret

[granite monolith]

because they care

[blazing marsh]

nobody cares if low quality music is leaked

[atomic blaze]

These are all wrong answers

[granite monolith]

tbf, her music is high quality, just has no substance

[blazing marsh]

it isn't though. she always uses the same progression, the instrumentals are basic, bland, and her lyrics are not very well written

if anyone used the same copy and paste template that she used, they could make a "good" song

[granite monolith]

yeah but when youre talking about the quality youre talking more about the mix and the actual, for lack of a better word, quality of the instruments themselves

[hasty escarp]

agreed, it always has the same topic and vibe and really corny lyrics

[blazing marsh]

her mix is fine because there's literally nothing to mix

[rapid nest]

tracklist is the btw for her album

[granite monolith]

oh ofc, im not saying she works hard for it

just that you cant really argue it isnt high quality, even if theres little to be made high quality

[blazing marsh]

in the same regard i could hit a very expensive and high quality bass drum for 1 minute straight and it'd be considered "high quality"

[rapid nest]

i mean album of the year 2025 is decided upon on may 21, 2025 alr

[granite monolith]

yes, you could

[blazing marsh]

if kendrick is nominated in ANY awards this year i'm boycotting every program that makes these award ceremonies

[granite monolith]

quality of music is not at all whats important

wait why are we hating on kendrick now?

[rapid nest]

what did kdot do

[blazing marsh]

i'm not hating on kendrick he just didn't deserve all the awards he got

[granite monolith]

if he isnt nominated id be genuinely shocked

[atomic blaze]

Yeesh hot takes thread rn

[blazing marsh]

gnx is probably the worst album i've ever heard, and i can argue it

[atomic blaze]

I want the pilot’s inner sleeves leaked I want to know if they’re freaky like the pic with the stole wrapped around their faces

[magic fjord]

these are amazing leak theories about twenty one pilots leaks

[granite monolith]

youve clearly not heard pray for the wicked

brb blocking brendon urie again

[rapid nest]

they will leak on September 5th

[blazing marsh]

not like us was a decent song but 5 grammys?

[white anchor]

taylor swift and kendrick lamar are my favorite twenty one pilots band members

[blazing marsh]

this chat is pretty much used for anything and i'm fine with that because the hometown addicts piss me off 100% of the time

[magic fjord]

i loved their song bad blood

[granite monolith]

it quite literally became a cultural milestone and touched on issues most artists were scared to. socially and musically it was fantastic

[rapid nest]

okay this chat is only for leaks tho, it has a topic

go to other channels if u dont wanna discuss leaks

[loud sluice]

that song is the culmination of the biggest rap beef in this century

[blazing marsh]

i don't think it touched on issues most artists were scared to, i just think it was more popular than other songs from smaller bands that DO talk about such issues

[atomic blaze]

Sorry for bringing up other artists just impressed at the speed in which swift got her artwork and tracklist leaked

[rapid nest]

lyrics too lol

[magic fjord]

wait what did it actually 😭

[rapid nest]

yes

[blazing marsh]

it originally stemmed from talking about taylor swift (and that was relevant because of album drops at similar times with prior albums), though, and we're maintaining a topic. sure, it's for leaks, but what is there even to discuss about leaks right now?

plus the general chats consist of mainly annoying text/people imo so i'll take this

[rapid nest]

i know other artist and stuff but me thinks no sharing leaks here no matter what

[edgy wolf]

See you guys at noon tomorrow I suppose?

[blazing marsh]

and THAT music isn't even worth leaking

[atomic blaze]

That was a hallucination dw

[feral monolith]

Idk she could always release another banger

[magic fjord]

the purpose of this chat is to discuss twenty one pilots leaks specifically, so as long as it stays on or tangential to that topic its fine, but this isnt a general chat. there isnt much to discuss leaks wise aside from the new single and the livestream today but thats why there are other chats

[blazing marsh]

another?

[feral monolith]

I used to think I was incapable of liking Taylor Swift music until anti-hero came out

[blazing marsh]

the other chats are pretty bad though

[feral monolith]

Haven’t liked another once since but at least I know she’s capable

[blazing marsh]

like the people in here are just more tolerable, and since this channel never gets spammed, using it as a general chat for 1/4 of the time isn't gonna bloat too much

[feral monolith]

Really weird too cause I really do not care for her other music but that specific song is like top 15 of all time for me

[blazing marsh]

if you scroll up, this channel is almost always used as a general chat unless something regarding tøp is actively happening (which hasn't been very frequent recently)

[rapid nest]

okay but its not ment to be that

[blazing marsh]

almost every possible theory has already been made regarding new content (that isn't straight clown)

[blazing marsh]

it doesn't matter, even if i stay on topic, it's gonna stay like that

there have been off-topic conversations in this channel that staff have actively engaged in, and they don't enforce it very strictly.

i appreciate the warning, but you don't have to minimod. if you're worried about staying off topic, then don't engage. if a mod asks for people to stay on topic, they will, but if they don't care, neither should you.

that's why there's also a distinction between verified theory channels and regular theory channels

[magic fjord]

i get it but also as someone whos been here several years, if we cant stay on topic the mods will force us to which has almost never really ended well because it always ends up being a lot stricter than if we had just bothered staying on topic. thats all we're saying

[feral monolith]

As someone who’s been here even longer, I really think waffles are better than French toast ngl

[blazing marsh]

idk why everyone says that staff is strict or will be strict. unless you're actively causing problems that they've specifically requested you not cause, they're really chill

[magic fjord]

i cant force you to do shit but ashley and i were just trying to redirect

[blazing marsh]

if a mod comes in here and tells us to stop talking about kendrick and ts and stuff, i will

[feral monolith]

TS 1989💔

[blazing marsh]

but if they don't care then i don't think we should worry about it. after all, it's a discord server. it's not a classroom, it's not a prison. no channel (including verified theorists) is always on topic

[feral monolith]

https://tenor.com/view/monsieur-omgba-shame-on-you-kant-tgi-gif-19293983

[blazing marsh]

i can't see the gif is it just not loading or

it's just blank for me

[feral monolith]

There is no gif, everything is perfectly fine here in the CCP

[blazing marsh]

yeah that checks out i'll just eat the information you feed me without question like a functioning normal member of society

[feral monolith]

Good job👍(+10000 social credit score)

[craggy kestrel]

I will kindly ask us to move the taylor/kendrick convos to a general chat if you wish to continue! I appreciate keeping it civil, but it’s gone on for quite some time now in this chat, and we’d like to keep theories chats used for their intended purpose

[magic fjord]

anyway it's the 12th..... surely something will happen

[feral monolith]

Is twenty one pilots even available in the CCP?

[granite monolith]

it would be really cool if we got teasers every other day tbh

[magic fjord]

yeah but i hope we at least get a proper announcement beforehand

[granite monolith]

yeah, I can see a title announcement today, teaser tomorrow, then on the 15th, then song on thr 18th

[magic fjord]

what if surprise single /delusional

[rapid nest]

i honestly think they have to announce listening parties soon too

[atomic blaze]

Im still in denial about 818 even though I know it’s a date

[magic fjord]

yup

[magic fjord]

818 being a date is fine tbh, i just want it sooner

[atomic blaze]

That’s what I mean lol.

[magic fjord]

but also only 6 days left ain't bad

[rapid nest]

i really really wonder why did they do that livestream

[atomic blaze]

Releasing 24 days before breach is wild

[rapid nest]

like it has to have a reason

[rapid nest]

blurryface shenanigans?

[atomic blaze]

Either we’re all missing something or it was a funny nod to their silence

[rapid nest]

they seem like they dont know that they are recorded

[magic fjord]

yeah for sure

[wary dome]

It would be really cool if that stream was cctv recording

[rapid nest]

really really love the theme of this era

the analog horror stuff

[atomic blaze]

I wouldn’t be surprised at all if the MV is filmed that way

[rapid nest]

thats not good for the lore

[toxic thicket]

we jus get the FPE shop cctv of tyler/clancy stealing the ned bread after backslide

bro blew a bag on some soggy buns

[stable kestrel]

really really hate the rollout of this era tho lol

[toxic thicket]

it's 10/10 ragebait trolling tyler spent too long on the internet finding ways to toy with our wellbeing

[worldly whale]

The thing that comforts me is the fact that, for The Contract we’ve had a lot of teasing (makes sense it was the start of a new era) but I wouldn’t be surprised if they keep going with this pattern: short teasers all week long until the 18th maybe?

Why would they do that for just a second single? Idk. But I would not be surprised

[azure umbra]

i hope they dont shadow drop it tomorrow if im being honest because i wanna know when it comes out (normally when they release songs its at like 1 am in my timezone)

i wanna wreck my sleep schedule and watch it when its a few seconds after being released

but if they announce it evena few hours before the songs i will be asleep

[random pivot]

oh please i’m praying we don’t have to wait till next week

[tawny wigeon]

hey guys let’s see what happens today then

we are officially one month away from breach

[fleet arch]

twenty one pilots.

[toxic thicket]

frickin twenty one nimrods at this point ffs

[balmy smelt]

If the single comes out today I’ll eat paper

[tawny wigeon]

i eat paper anyway

[nova bough]

Drum Show in 8ish hours?🤔🤔🤔

[tawny wigeon]

or next teaser at 12pm

[nova bough]

How many hrs till 12pm? (Im in a dif timezone)

[stark pebble]

7.5 hours

[nova bough]

Thank you

[fleet arch]

I swear it’ll be August 32nd before the next single/album releases.

[gentle rose]

818 8/18 sorry guys

[granite monolith]

im confused, if we know drum show is likely next, but the leakers are saying its garbage, could this be a double?

[past panther]

The leakers don't know anything

The boys are probably misleading them , they said they never saw the real tracklist before Tyler revealed it

[thin copper]

i think Mojib is just making a pun with the tracklist and being a little silly
but who knows

[blazing breach]

today marks 2 months after the contract and 1 month before breach

[granite monolith]

Mojib did and Ashley was implying heavily, so idk

[blazing breach]

theyve to do something today

[thin copper]

with how unpredictable they are and how they're trolling us i would not be surprised if this was actually a double drop

[blazing breach]

it seems to me that tyler played navigating on the guitar in the video

[thin copper]

what on what
wtf

rly?

also i'm not sure, was it a bass guitar or just a guitar?

[blazing breach]

on the strings
yup

[blazing breach]

if thats the case, then its uppermost level trolling

[hasty escarp]

I just got into chat. he played navigating on the livestream?

[blazing breach]

not literally
it seemed to me that he was holding down the chords of navigating

[hasty escarp]

oh yea

yea it was a bass

[blazing breach]

pardon his delay..

[buoyant bramble]

Im anticipating drum show to slap HARD

[hasty escarp]

is bro playing a 5 string bass?

[thin copper]

i saw the instrument i immediately thought that

[granite monolith]

Thank god even when he goes for traditional instruments he chooses the weirdest ones

[hasty escarp]

I would love a never take it vibe

[regal otter]

i think

i am thouroughly medicated so i'm ready to wait, take your time boys

[smoky tangle]

Another day.. another wait (coping it drops today)

[plain cliff]

Nope it’s 4 I don’t think we’ll ever see Tyler playing with a b string 😁😁😁

[blazing breach]

something should happen today at noon et

itll be 2 months after the contract

[modest arrow]

been jinxed we now gonna have to wait another week

[blazing breach]

it doesnt work that way

[ivory trout]

Happy one month till Breach

[blazing marsh]

wait fpe8553 does mean something

[lavish geode]

Theyve left us in a cliffhanger for a year

[blazing marsh]

F (Drum Show) P (is gonna release on) E (Monday,) 8 (August) 5 (18th) 5 (of) 3 (2025)

[random pivot]

im a bass player it wasn’t it was a new thing ive been tryna replicate it all day but it seems he was just doing bs it wasn’t a real song

[stone hornet]

I have a new theory about 8553 we've had the contract track 5 for two months now hence 55 drum show is expected with one month left hence 3 and then 8 something

[blazing breach]

ty

[tepid yacht]

8 could be August

[stone hornet]

That's actually a good point

[errant saffron]

Does someone have a screenshot of the whole set up from the video yesterday

And does someone have a screenshot of tylers instastory post of josh

[blazing marsh]

8+5+5+3=21 (twenty one pilots)

using the phone dial numbers (i.e: 2 is abc, 3 is def, etc.)
85 = TJ (Tyler Joseph)

53 = JD (Josh Dun)

i don't think it can just coincidentally line up with that but ALSO mean more

i'm quite sure it's just a little easter egg

[random pivot]

yup it was a bass

[stone hornet]

Probably

[blazing marsh]

818 is almost definitely a date for SOMETHING whether it's drum show, garbage, robot voices

[hasty escarp]

it looks like theres 5 pegs

[blazing marsh]

4

[plain cliff]

Yep

[atomic blaze]

Good morning are we thinking they’re going to stay silent today

[gentle rose]

No

[stone hornet]

No

[gentle rose]

They need to follow up their little nothing video today

[worthy dock]

1000% yes... nothing happening until next Monday

[dim island]

That would be some unbelievably evil I believe more evil than a mini hiatus

[modest tinsel]

i hope not. i hope it’s a rollout similar to the contracts rollout

[blazing breach]

the song is ready to go
theres no reason for delaying it

[atomic blaze]

They are evil tho

[blazing breach]

evil clancy 😈

[thin copper]

i like the analog horror aesthetic they're using

they're still using it so i guess it's gonna be kinda like the "aesthetic" of this era (at least for now)

[magic fjord]

the problem is the way they did it didn't give anything concrete, which means that unless youre someone like us you wouldnt know that a song is coming, when its coming, and that the song is drum show

[summer mist]

Hey amigos!!!

[thin copper]

hi

[dim island]

There’s no way they go “hey guys big stuff on the way, but we’re gonna keep it under wraps”, disappear for like 2 months, then come back and reiterate “we still have stuff coming guys but we still won’t share any of it”

[summer mist]

Maybe they’ll start teasing it from here

[thin copper]

tbh i think you could easily infer smth is coming

but yeah u wouldn't know what is coming

[magic fjord]

sure but at the same time i still think we're getting more

it wont be anything like the contract stuff but i feel like we'll get at least one post telling us what the stream meant exactly

[thin copper]

i did not say the opposite

im just saying you could easily guess there is smth coming even if you don't have info like us
but yeah it's vague

if it releases next week they might tease it more

[gentle rose]

I’m still set on something happening today

[lofty pike]

For those of us hoping we get something today, what are times we think something could happen?

[rapid nest]

literally any

[gentle rose]

Noon is easily the highest possibility

[plain cliff]

I’m very skeptics about something today cuz they gave us something yesterday and they are not that nice lol

[lofty pike]

Whether that be song or announcement or teaser aaa

[stone hornet]

12 is the most likely time

[rapid nest]

but yeah

[gentle rose]

That 20 minute livestream attracted some attention so I feel like ppl would expect smth more, maybe the song, today

[dim island]

Well Tyler posted once then the band confirmed it the next day

[summer mist]

Blurryface you think?

[worthy dock]

yeah buit theyve waited this long lol -- the album was ready 2 months ago

[dim island]

It’d be super weird to post something like that which clearly shows you are about to make a move then wait a week to do it

And the album is super close

[lofty pike]

Okay so it’s 8:03 for them rn… it’s 6:03 for mee… trying to debate on whether or not I can manage to get more sleep

[blazing breach]

the album wasnt scheduled until july 16

[worthy dock]

right but NOTHING about this album's rollout has been ordinary.. its all been super weird

[gentle rose]

Get maybe 2 hours of sleep it’ll probably be fine

[blazing breach]

but drum show IS on streaming services
waiting for the release only

[thin copper]

this is different cuz a single release comes with an MV
the song is ready means the MV is ready, and i doubt it was ready 2 months ago

[worthy dock]

What do you mean? It had to be done before then for the vinyl reasons I mentioned earlier

[summer mist]

I feel like that in a way is the fun part about it. The mystery of what is yet to come or how long left to wait, really just builds up the hype to me

[dim island]

Really the only difference is it’s more crunched than usual but every artist seems to be doing that lately

[worthy dock]

fair point

[lofty pike]

I’ll try 😭🫡

[gentle rose]

Yeah, like there’s no way they drove a van full of drums and guitars to a garage for nothing

[blazing breach]

i mean the album should be released in september anyway, and we only found out the exact date on july 16

i repeat
theres no reason for delaying drum show

[regal otter]

That we know of

[dim island]

I just want another one of these

[regal otter]

That was soooo good

[thin copper]

they'd be capable of waiting until the 18th but like come on by that point you'd be on the third single, or you'd be on the way to it

[rapid nest]

i honestly think that the video yesterday was supposed to be like, a blurryface video or a video for proof of blurryface still being on the accounts of them because like in the video they are not aware of being recorded in like a camera or something

[gentle rose]

And they don’t do music drops on Mondays except for when the song leaks

[blazing breach]

the first one is rawfear
trust

[rapid nest]

like also the title being basically a date of recording etc

[thin copper]

at this point they'd do almost anything tbh

[worthy dock]

True, what I am saying is, the album itself has been done for months. You said "why would they delay releasing the single". well... theyve had the album done for 2 months at least and theyve only released one single...so their intentional delay and odd rollout for this album is intentional... thats the only reason I am saying that it wouldnt suprise me if the single comes out next week instead of today like everyone thinkgs. I hope I am wrong -- but I am jaded AF with this albums release and the almost total silence from the band lol

[blazing breach]

but honestly these all the contract snippets

[summer mist]

Either that or they are making fun of how antsy we can be (which imo, kinda deserved 🥲)

[tawny wigeon]

i still think monday is an odd day to release idc

anyway teaser today at 12pm est

[worthy dock]

back in my day... 👴 - albums and singles came out monday night at midnight (tuesday am)

[summer mist]

You think so?

[gentle rose]

Either teaser or the song I bet

[thin copper]

i hope it's the song

[gentle rose]

Same

[regal otter]

The song without any solid form of teasing would be so weirrddddd

[thin copper]

i want to listen to Drum Show aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[summer mist]

I hope they just randomly drop an entirely different song from an entirely different album

[thin copper]

not necessarily

[gentle rose]

Well a 20 minute livestream even tho it was nothing, attracts a lot of attention, so people are very ready for the song now

[worthy dock]

heres a real "drum show" to tide you over. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FssULNGSZIA&pp=ygUNdG9vbCBkcnVtIGNhbQ%3D%3D

[summer mist]

We love twenty one pilots megaragebait

[thin copper]

yeah they've revived the hype/the attention towards them why would they not use it

[tawny wigeon]

yes

[gentle rose]

They will use it

[thin copper]

i fucking hope so

[regal otter]

Idkkk im so confused, they teased the fuck out of The Contract, why do the exact opposite for Drum Show when they know they could create an insane hype ? Maybe they’re really really confident about Drum Show being amazing and in that case they know it’ll work no matter what?

[tawny wigeon]

i still refuse to believe they’re gonna drop on a monday … but they’re doing the unexpected this era.

we’re for sure getting a teaser today

[worthy dock]

I don't believe the hype............

[thin copper]

i mean they teased tf out of Overcompensate while Next Semester basically got a "cya next week" and that's it

[blazing breach]

8:12 am et rn

[worthy dock]

the video yesterday was our "cya next week" on the 18th

[regal otter]

We didn’t even get this for Drum Show, that’s why idk if it’ll come out today

[thin copper]

fair

[rapid nest]

.

[gentle rose]

Well you could say they’re overcompensating for the contract’s constant hype

[regal otter]

Not for the general audience

[thin copper]

it had a similar vibe too like the statics and stuff

[worthy dock]

@rapid nest has entered the chat.........

[blazing breach]

spend some weekends on the grind
surveillance outside
we see when you arrive

[gentle rose]

It really wasn’t though

[tawny wigeon]

they will follow up that cryptic teaser today, similar to how they followed up tyler’s tracklist post on instagram

[regal otter]

Next Semester was teased on TikTok n stuff

[summer mist]

Blurryfaces camera movements are very shaky and crispy. I don’t doubt it, but it’s unlikely.

[worthy dock]

and you know it isnt...how?

[blazing breach]

maybe something at 8:18 please?

[rapid nest]

i said what I had to say in the morning about everything

[lofty pike]

We all assume that, but it’s not confirmed that level 8, level 1, level 8 means that

[tawny wigeon]

also someone pointed out 8553 could refer to the breach tracklist. 8=cottonwood, 5=the contract, 3=drum show

however i dont think its likely cottonwood is a single

[gentle rose]

Because there’s no way TOP are cruel enough to make us sit on a nothing video for a week

[regal otter]

Yeah and we read into it bc we’re hardcore fans but regular fans don’t know about it

[tawny wigeon]

818 could be more than just a date, we’re just assuming it’s a date. sadly it’s the most likely option, but im sure we will find out soon enough

[blazing breach]

they should accompany the video with some posts in socials

[gentle rose]

Like they didn’t do a 20 minute livestream for absolutely nothing until the next week

[worthy dock]

agreed... no one knows anything at this point but peopel seem to be 10000% convinced that a new single is dropping this morning and I am trying to mitigate incoming frustrations when nothing happens lol. again i hope im wrong... but theyve made us wait almost 2 months... why not one more week

[summer mist]

Ok pops, let’s get you back to bed. /j

[lofty pike]

Yeah that’s what I mean.
8:18 would be a weird time but I’m here JUST IN CASE something happens in 3

[worthy dock]

wait, I missed what you said 😳

[tawny wigeon]

we will reunite here at 12pm to see what happens again

[summer mist]

Tyler Joseph was on Pokemon go nonstop last night, he caught a shiny sandshrew

[regal otter]

Song will come out on Friday and we’ll all be flabbergasted

[stone hornet]

And 10

[blazing breach]

im expecting blurrys activity today

[stone hornet]

One year anniversary of Clancy tour

[stone flame]

if this was meant to be The Teaser for drum show to get everybody else on board (and not just those of us who have been chomping at leak servers), then i can (unfortunately) see them waiting to do anything more until next week, but i wouldn’t be upset for something more this week

[lofty pike]

I‘m hoping for just a teeny tiny bit of movement like a post or teaser or tweet or something, but I’m not set on it

[stone hornet]

I don't think we will get blurry as I don't think drum show is lore

[blazing breach]

idk the video is eerie

[lofty pike]

It definitely at least has some refs like RITN. Red tape was on Tyler’s side of the car.

[blazing breach]

as if someone had set up a hidden camera in advance and was waiting for them

[rapid nest]

by the way things are still the same as the start in the background if you guys are wondering about that

[lofty pike]

8:18…. I’ll be back at noon?

[rapid nest]

nothing changed

[regal otter]

in the video ?

[rapid nest]

no the timeline

[worthy dock]

what do you even mean lol? that sentence is very confusing

[regal otter]

im confused

[worthy dock]

shes being very cryptic and not sure why hahaha

[rapid nest]

Huh?

[regal otter]

you mean the timeline of things happening ? the information you have/had ?

[rapid nest]

Im just simply saying that the Background/Internal Timeline is still the same since the beginning of the era

[worthy dock]

Your last two messages said: "I said what I said this morning"....."things are still the same as the start in the background" and "nothing has changed" regarding the "timeline".... all cryptic AF lol

[rapid nest]

hows this hard to understand

[worthy dock]

wtf is the internal timeline? lol. sorry for being stupid if I am

[regal otter]

idk i think im misinterpreting "background" and "internal timeline", english isnt my native language so idk

[rapid nest]

the internal plans are still the same

[regal otter]

oh ok so its what i thought ! ok ok

[lofty pike]

I’m very much so confused too, there was little context given with your message, but it’s no worries Ashley. We just need clarification. 🖤

[rapid nest]

everything is going as planned - idk how was that hard to understand

[tawny wigeon]

https://x.com/TOPUPDATERS/status/1955240457077690632 you cant tell me they wont do smth significant today

TØP Updates (@TOPUPDATERS)

It's been two months since "The Contract" was released, and it's also one month until the full album 'Breach' releases! ♥️

X · Aug 12, 2025, 12:10 PM

[rapid nest]

love this frame of josh

[worthy dock]

lol. please dont be condescending. Your messages are cryptic. sorry but they are. When you say the internal plan... are you saying the band's internal marketing rollout plan? If so... how in the world do you have ANY insight into the band's rollout plan.

[lofty pike]

Cause there was zero context to your initial message, it wasn’t clear what you were referring to by “in the background.” We just needed clarification 🙃

[rapid nest]

also noticed that the sjc logo is not on the drumhead from the video

[worthy dock]

thats just due to copyright

[regal otter]

You were the one typing the sentence so yeah it was clear for you but again English isn’t my main language and the choice of words was confusing to me 🙂

[rapid nest]

im just being honest as i can

[tawny wigeon]

doesnt rlly mean anything tbh

[rapid nest]

im English as a second language too

[rapid nest]

yeah thought it was interesting thats it

[regal otter]

Well that gives us both an excuse then!

[lofty pike]

Alr I’ll be back at Ohio’s noon

[regal otter]

6pm for me 😩

[lofty pike]

It’s almost 6:30 AM for me rn

[modest tinsel]

it’s 5:30am for me haha

[raven raptor]

LEVEL UP: You are now level 14!

[worthy dock]

You still havent answered the question... do you have insight into the band's internal marketing plans? And if so, how? My hunch is you dont... because if you were close enough to the band, to know the plan... you wouldnt be sayign ANYTHING about it here on Discord. None of the sources you mentioned over the past few days gave any credible info @rapid nest not trying to sound like a jerk...maybe its language barrier but when you make a condescending comment about "why is it so hard to understand" your comments.. it warrants questiong exeactly WHAT you are trying to say

[tawny wigeon]

3 hours 20 minutes 🔥 🔥

[bright island]

to nothing 🔥 🔥

Seriously though, I expect the premiere announcement today and the song release tomorrow

[tawny wigeon]

one can hope that the song drops this week, but its looking unlikely. today we will know for sure

[stone hornet]

Maybe not for sure but yes

[stone flame]

we had already heard from mojib that everything was still going as planned so unless there’s some new insight that’s being spread here, i think it’s just a reiteration of info we already know from mojib himself

but i agree that being cryptic just for cryptic’s sake can get annoying, especially during high-stress/tension moments like this

[gentle rose]

I expect both premiere and song today. It’s 2 months since the contract and one month before Breach today can’t be nothing

[last shore]

morning guys

any updates?

[tawny wigeon]

not yet

[glacial crane]

always assume no </3

[blazing breach]

please!!!

[glacial crane]

I'm pissed off at the band still cuz how are u gonna do absolutely nothing but still something

[blazing breach]

itd be really good
like
incredibly good

[glacial crane]

my guess is theyll announce it today or tomorrow properly

[hollow agate]

i'm both expecting nothing and hoping for something at the same time

[blazing breach]

schrödingers drum show

[gentle rose]

The funniest shit yesterday tho, it’s one minute before noon, some ppl say nothing some say smth, then when noon hit everyone was like well, nothing again, but then TOP go live it was beautiful

[tawny wigeon]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1402393263238811772/1404508991274487828/westisdown__-_1954944890137083967.gif

[thin copper]

that was violent

[tawny wigeon]

fr

[smoky tangle]

I witnessed it in real time, it was crazy

[gentle rose]

We’re gonna need thousands of people bringing red chairs like this to the lawns at the venues that have them

[thin copper]

the noise it made lmao

[hollow agate]

im so obsessed with this gif i cant stop finding reasons to use it lol

[lofty pike]

Literally, everyone was saying we were clowning. Nothing happened when it hit noon for like a good 30 secs but then they went live and we were like HA

[ember raven]

yes mojib had stated that the silence from the band was planned and that no plans had changed internally as far as he knows

[gentle rose]

It was beautiful fr, but then the livestream doesn’t show songs

[lofty pike]

I wasn’t really expecting a song, but I did expect something and something is what we got 😭

[gentle rose]

Lmfao yeah

[hollow agate]

in my circle ppl were screaming about drum show during the countdown so it was extra funny when 20 minutes later we all looked like total clowns i loved it

[raven raptor]

LEVEL UP: You are now level 11!

[limber hatch]

12pm est?

[lofty pike]

Yeah, 12 ohio time

[tawny wigeon]

818 could literally be nothing, it could also not be a date. we need to keep all possibilities open

[hollow agate]

i could completely see this as a possibility lmao nothing is out of the question atp

[tiny garnet]

Pretty sure the license plate is telling us the next single comes out August 5th 2053 /j

[hollow agate]

its a red herring the song comes out today trust

[lofty pike]

Imagine. I mean like I wouldn’t be super surprised. I’m not set on it being the 18th, and not just cause I don’t want it to be. We’re only ASSUMING it’s a date, and it’s not a very clear indication, I personally think. But 🤷‍♀️ who knows 😭

[tawny wigeon]

definitely

[blazing breach]

wdym it isnt a joke

[thin copper]

what time is it in ohio please

[hollow agate]

no no i think you're onto something

[limber hatch]

if you're confident something's gonna happen today plz react with ⬆️ and if you don't think so go ⬇️

[tawny wigeon]

818 could literally be a red herring

[lofty pike]

Almost 9am

[tiny garnet]

Yknow you’re right. With the pace they’ve been at

[tawny wigeon]

album delayed until 2053

[tiny garnet]

Retirement album let’s go

[lofty pike]

I’m in between.

[tawny wigeon]

cant wait for the retirement album

[blazing breach]

its vessel tho

[lofty pike]

PLS I had to screenshot this it’s hilarious

[tiny garnet]

Vessel but Tyler and Josh at that age on the cover

[limber hatch]

LSKFKGJSF

[thin copper]

😌

[limber hatch]

the way i agree with all the reactions

[blazing breach]

are we expecting something today at noon et right

[thin copper]

we are and we aren't at the same time

[stone hornet]

Not expecting but it's possible

[hollow agate]

playing every single side so we can't be wrong no matter what

[tawny wigeon]

wait that would actually be amazing. if their final album is a recreation of vessel with tyler and josh

[thin copper]

would be heartbreaking tho :')

[blazing breach]

i noticed that they seem to have a pattern in this era :
2 days in a row - posts
1 day after - silence

[tawny wigeon]

definitely

[lofty pike]

Oh I’d break

[thin copper]

Breach already kinda is that though if u think about it

[tawny wigeon]

not reallyyy, they've probably got many albums left in the tank

[thin copper]

no yeah def but i mean the cover itself

[lofty pike]

Ehh kinda but not really, they’re only standing on the same sides

I think we mean like an actual recreation

[urban summit]

so its just, a cycle.
