the hot take of the century
everyone is sad
we’re all sad
Exactly!!
I feel so disappointed. I didn't expect Clancy to win or conquer but this ending has me devastated. I have no idea if I'll ever be able to get to the album and am considering selling my show ticket. Just left depressed.
I used to be disappointed with the end, but if you think about it, it makes a lot of sense. It can be really difficult to completely defeat your inner demons. Sometimes, they really can get to you
It makes sense. It would also make sense to have the bishops not be defeated, come back, but have slightly less power, the banditos move in and help Dema residents, literally anything other than Clancy just giving in and recreating the evil to be visited upon others.
Yeah, but it's a cycle and Clancy will come back and maybe one day, he'll break the cycle for good
It's the maybe for me. I've lost too many friends to this disease. This video makes me less confident it won't get me too.
I'm really sorry for your loss 💔 it's really hard to get through the pain of losing loved ones
breach is peak
im happy with how open ended they left the mv
What do you like most about it?
with breach - the overall sound of the whole thing
with the mv - they left it open ended for people to still theorise while they dont have to do anything else themselves
i have i slight feeling this doesn’t mean tylancy gave up totally yk? like why defeat and become the exactly same? some letters were weird but these guys ALWAYS come with a double ending/vision/plan
i feel they’ll come back and clancy and tb will reunite and do things better in their own wsy
I truly felt like a child again, in the worst ways, like I'd been defeated, but in the best ways because it felt nostalgic. I keep crying about it. I don't know if I can listen to the other albums the same again. There's two birdies now, pre-breach/city walls, and post. I'm changing and growing with it. It's been a decade of me being a fan, and I felt like I did when I just started out. The sun will always rise, and we will always try again.
LEVEL UP: You are now level 4!
Amazing but kind of unsatisfied with the ending
This is just speculation though. They told us this is the end of the story.
i know but… i dont know it feels like a break but not and end
CINEMA
I believe it. I think it's good to have a some faith in Clancy
I think he breaks the cycle BUT THEN creates a new one, and the bishops represents Tyler's fears, he no longer has them fears, he is the fears
maybe “the trench saga” ended as they said in the digital benefits but i have this theory where they’ll come back with something that will continue it
I like this idea
Again that's speculation that contradicts what they've said
Tyyy
You're welcome
imagine the comebaxk saga not being defeating your demons but “overcome them” and learning to live with them in other ways
bc rn it just feels like clancy gave up to them in a way but idk idk I JUST CANT STOP THINKING ABOUT IR
Yeah, true
that sounds incredible actually
Worse, joined them to now hurt others
Tyyy
but its not the first time they say something and later change it
if it is a cycle then why is it ending
Gang what if this is chapter one...
JUST IMAGINE
Well I'm glad you have hope and are able to imagine a positive future. All I have is what they've said and it leaves me thinking I'll lose to this disease too eventually.
perfect ending
Waiting another 10 years for chapter 2 <3
Have any theories for chapter 2?
im sorry you think that, dealing with a disease its so hard and sometimes no matter how much you try you cant see an outcome to it. Even tho idk your situation i empathise with the disease and i always like to see it as it if, even if we dont see ir, there will ALWAYS be an exit
I think that torchbearer will be un banished and then he becomes the new clancy
It's the exit I'm worried about. The exit too many of my friends have already taken.
Cause the banditos were once citizens
So the Torchbearer was Clancy all along? I love that
but ofc that doesn’t help much when you are overwhelmed, and i also understand that, i just want you to know that you are not alone, that things wont get totally brigthwr at some point bc, at the end, is is true that is a cycle with its ups and downs, but i hope yours is filled with as much brightness as possible
You're kind. Thank you.
i would cry bc imagine tb always reminding himself that he must not become another clancy
Yes, that's really true
i would throw myself out of the window
i get ir, and obviously is harder if several people around took an ending you want to avoid but sometimes seems like the last escape
im so sorry for that and for everything they went through, and what you went through to feel like you are feeling right now, i could never promise you pink skies bc they will be purple, and sometimes you’ll enjoy them and sometimes you’ll hate them
you have to get comfortable with that purple to finally see an ending
Not sure I follow the metaphor
until that, try to find company, family, friends, classmates and just social groups that will show you that it is worth ir, and also the relationship with yourself , it is as important as the ones with those around you
Sad ending for a sad story. Its great.
Straight up thought Clancy was gonna throw Nico out the window
its okay, im just saying everything wont be always colorful and rainbowish and bright forever, but wont be neither dark and cold and hopeless
we have to learn to live with the mix of it
i find beauty in it actually, but somedays is hard to see it and i also find myself lost and feel like im gonna snap back to the darkness
but them a couple days after something amazing might happen to me
and then it becomes one of the best days of my life
Yeahh
is that what im trying to say, nothing will stay static forever
i just hope you can remember that, and find reasons to see that the both parts are worth it :)
And yet I've had depression for four decades now.
It gets old. It gets too heavy to carry.
are you seeing any specialist?
not talking about psychiatrist that will just give you some f pills, im talking someone that helps you to achieve solutions and other visions and perspectives
I was but he wasn't any good. Trying to get a referral elsewhere for months now. Will keep trying.
then i hope you find some help anytime sooner 🫶🏻 i know irs hard and sometimes too expensive but (as i see ir) is totally worth it to take care about our mental health
it trueeee
no f way i didnt thought of it that way but that would be fucking sick
imagine this was tb mind all along i would pull out a clancy
forest fc reference fr
IT WAS HEARTBREAKING
Peak
I cried
IT MADE ME CRY. It's so heart wrenching to see this story come to a close. It was so sad to see Clancy become that which he hated the most, but it's a realistic ending to the story
I was gagged!
I woke up at around 4 AM to listen to it. Both the album and video made me feel something I couldn't place a name on. I know RAWFEAR hit home for me and Tally might be my favorite track.
PEAK
Sooooooo sad but really good, the rest of the album exept "that part 😢" Is amazing
Breach is awesome, very relatable. City walls broke my heart 😔
unfortunately not my fav album of theirs BUT there are some bangers and the music video was awesome!
My heart quite literally broke
breach needs some time to marinate.
but.
BUT
it feels like something i’d hear years before with some bad lyrics and think “yeah no this is awful” but it actually connects in a scary way. it feels like coming home somehow?
CITY WALLS!?
honestly we should’ve seen that coming but the fact that the banditos always keep trying is so heartwarming. maybe we are all like versions of clancy, who knows.
:]
no way a music video made me go through all the stages of grief at once, TYLER WHEN I FIND YOU—
:(
Absolutely devastating
Shattered me into pieces. I am in shambles.
Peak.
😢
Do we think torchbearer was there for every cycle, or came in midway through?
i like to believe it's been these two forever
I think Clancy met him sometime in Dema or in the NATN video
i kinda doubt it was the NATN video because why would a bandito say "this clancy" to torchbearer if it's his first cycle
Oh, true 🤔
im leaning towards dema being founded (mental health troubles forming), then when it got to a larger point the banditos formed (bits of hope/pushback), and then when tyler(real life) realized he had struggles, that was sorta clancy's "birth"(real pushback forming). then when he reached out for help and began to learn how to cope, that was torchbearer. so probably really early
i think of it as nico is a past version of clancy who also "failed" and became a bishop. that clancy is essentially always running from an old version of himself who was in a worst place. if that makes sense. like we assume bishop clancy will rule dema differently, and with slightly better intentions. i believe it's been that cycle over and over, each time clancy with better intentions, tortured by an old version of himself who is a bishop with less good intentions. idk if that makes any sense. it's probably debunked in the lore but idc <3
bc mental health isnt like, you dont have it and then you do, it builds up over time so i like to imagine there's a timelapse of dema forming, then clancy/torchbearer are born
i think its pretty safe to assume theres the 'clancy' entity and the 'nico' entity, and yeah clancy turns into nico, new clancy, clancy turns into nico, etc
but every nico born is a little healthier 
i think this is really the only reason ive made peace with and even come to love the city walls story, and the story breach tells in general. it tells me that i will fall back down. it will get hard again, over and over. but it hurts a little bit less every time. and every time i get back up, im a little stronger
LMAOOO
i think it works like a new dema citizen assumes the 'clancy' role, even if their name isnt really clancy yknow, they start to get the want to change
that’s what i’ve been thinking too
so if you give two dema citizens wheat, you get an advancement called 'The Parrots and The Bats' for breeding your fir-
- (tied) Center Mass/Tally
- (tied) City Walls/Drag Path
- Downstairs
- Robot Voices
- Days Lie Dormant
- Garbage
- RAWFEAR
- Drum Show
- One Way
- The Contract
- Cottonwood
- Intentions
Pain l
i think the reason i struggle with other peoples rankings or even the prospect of attempting my own ranking is that while i do have a least favorite i cannot allow ranking any of them low. like if i say a song is 11 i would feel awful bc like why is it so low if it bops so hard yknow?
literally !! i feel so bad
its more like
SSS+ - Center Mass, Tally
SSS - Drag Path, City Walls
SS - Downstairs, Robot Voices, Days Lie Dormant, Garbage
S - RAWFEAR, Drum Show, One Way, The Contract
A - Cottonwood, Intentions
true true. tier ranking is better. maybe ill do that
It's not actually the end ok
City walls is just the end of ONE cycle. The actual end of the storyline is Intentions
Hear me out he says "Intentions will set you free" that's the end of the cycle
I think tyler said city walls is the end and intentions is his way of interpreting the end
I'm in denial
You're correct I'm just in denial
What music video I don't even know what you guys are talking about Haha
drag path is pretty hopeful
Yeah that's what gives me hope that the true ending is Drag Path and Intentions is supposed to hint towards it
cried
a lot ngl it was really fucking sad music video
“dema story done by josh, tyler, yada yada yada yada AND YOU”
okay minecraft thanks for making me cry 😭😭
Someone must've been chopping onions because why is this band making their fans cry 😭🤧
But MV is beautiful. You can tell it was expensive to make
for a band thats devoted to helping mental health they sure worsened mine /nsrs
its not the AND YOU that made me cry, its the fact that its ending
cinema
in its purest form
Made me sad but I expected it
i love it!!! i think the end is very realistic tbh, and i respect that. i also kind of already theorized what would happen in the end, especially when the CD box set names were revealed 😭
I like that the end isn’t a fantasy
I really wanted the cycle to be broken idk it made me sad
I guess that's naive and they of course preach hope and trying again but I was still SADDENED ok
I LOVE the album and the indie vibes that are in some songs
PERFECT
Sobbing violently
My first time listening to their album tbh also loved it!
that interaction between torchbearer and clancy made me crashout like tyler’s fry scream in drum show 💔💔💔
I legit went through the five stages of grief
it was confusing
it was like a movie
Epic, a real masterpiece
i can't believe i'm saying this, but it's on the level of trench, if not even better., coming from someone who's favorite album of all time is trench. there's just not a single skip on the album, it's just banger after banger, plus the city walls music video was the best they've ever done from a cinematography standpoint and wrapped up the lore perfectly, even if it's not the ending i wanted (it's a more realistic ending than what i was expecting though)
breach was really cool, it felt like SAI in the sense of trying something new but instead of ending up like sai where it didnt really work I actually think they found a few new styles to work with when they've got creativity.
Centermass is absolutely awesome and really gave me a vibe of London-Style R&B / Rap it was very cool considering I listen to a lot of "underground" artists with that style.
Robot Voices stood out to me as a very indie track that worked awesome on this record so I'm very impressed with that and it sounds great. I worried it would be a little bit cringe but it was no where near
As for the music video, wow. I can definitely see the raised budget for it and I personally thought it was so awesome, genuinely very cool. The ending, while leaving me rather sad for TB and Clancy, ended on a largely hopeful note. I wish this time was the time he broke the cycle, but I like to believe the Bishops rule gets less suffocating with each cycle. I'll miss this story, dearly.
Amazing album. Drag Path may be one of my most favorite songs of all time. I'm disappointed that the lore ended the way it did but I think I've worked through the stages of grief to acceptance lol. I love One Way into Days Lie Dormant, Tally, Downstairs, Drum Show. Literally got chills from Intentions being Truce reversed.
Guyyys- in Rawfear, when he uses the term “empty Uzis” does he mean 🔫 or the Bible term? Which means “power/ Strength “?




WHY
Breach makes me wanna breach inside my friend's room and spill lore onto him
i like the album but intentions and city wall mv made me sob so hard
I think it's the gun? Because someone is shooting him from behind, which makes him run faster (moves him)
I personally really enjoyed the cycle, and it really connected all of the dots in the lore for me. There may be some things I’m missing, but now I understand most of the needed lore
Amazing!
I did not expect Nico to be so good at fighting
My dad said “damn.. tylers getting his ass kicked.” 😭😭 he doesn’t even know the lore he just saw Tyler fighting with some culty dude
Nico FLOORED that guy
Nah Tyler went easy on Nico
||Plot twist||
in my delusions they’re taking a break to make a movie
Tyler should go to the gym
City Walls video had me shook, in lack of better words. Breach as an album is a great culmination of tøp
The slide tackle absolutely took me off guard lol
i was not expecting them to start beating eachothers asses 🥹🥹 but i love breach so much
so good but it made me scream multiple times 
It was…AMAZING. I think it was just a further statement about how much the band cares about their fans, that they’d do ALL THIS for us. I HATED the ending at first, but with time I’ve been able to understand and I think it’s a beautiful and also very heartbreaking message. Such an amazing story. 100/10 I cried so much
Tyler needs to stop with the gut-wrenching videos
Like I was screaming and crying to the point where my ra and my friends had to come into my room to make sure I wasn't being strangled
this should be called question of the month, it was really cool though, glad it wrapped up so neatly and had such an interesting yet unexpected, bittersweet yet satisfying ending
Breach is really amazing and city walls, while I've got mixed opinions about the ending was also quite amazing. I was betting on bishop clancy, I did not fully expect it though.
ITS PEAK
It's true it is peque, BUT FRICK U TYLER HOW COULD YOU DO THAT TO US YOU'VE MADE EVERY ONE OF US CRY ATE YOU HAPPY NOW?
makes my heart hurt. but I get it
I like the album, not a fan of the MV, and Intentions is STILL my least favorite after a few days
i genuinely haven't listened to breach yet im too scared but i just watched the city walls mv and im so shocked oh my god personally victimized by tyler joseph
I LOVE IT playing it as often as I can! (Sad though that the lore is over BUT on the other hand I’m loving the theories TØP fans are displaying and sharing about their personal aspect/view on things) tbh I wish I would’ve listened to majority of albums AFTER blurry face back then but I wasn’t aware or constantly keeping up on everything until last year and this year a bit in 2021 but yeah overall ITS GREAT AND I FINALLY UNDERSTAND MAJORITY OF THE LORE
City Walls was emotionally destructive
but it was perhaps the most perfect music video i've ever seen from them, you should have seen me just watching it with my mouth open the whole time. and the credits made me cry 
so real
i cried
I cried also
laughed when he vaporized nico with the power of the logo but it feels fitting somehow. unserious but perfect
audibly went NOOOOO when he became a bishop and again when josh refused the cloak
absolutely cinematic
Look I was upset and sobbing hysterically - then I stopped and considered the ending very carefully and realized how well it was actually considered . Though I would have loved for a happier ending - I was genuinely in denial myself not realizing I’ve tapped back into my old troubles and have been ignoring them ..Clancy truly is an accurate representation of the cycle that we want to break out of but need to acknowledge the fact there are times we will go back into old habits every now and then
When the video came out at first I was in shock, then on the second replay I payed clsoer attention to the end and started processing it and then the "and you" on the credits with Intentions finally broke me and it dawned on me that the storyline was over. After that I was just sobbing for 2 hours on twitter and talking with friends who were also sobbing continuously
And on Saturday I started listening to the album again and omfg it truly is one of their best 
loveeeeeed
Hollow
We got the good ending tbh
the good ending is staying alive, not necessarily winning in one blow
BREACH IS SOOO GOOD, I GET MORE AND MORE OBSEESSED EACH LITEN, city walls mv made me soo mad ngl but like a good mad cuz i get the synmbolism and all that wouldnt fit if it got a happy ending right away, but if its the end end i will be sooooo sad cuz i dont want the story to end like that, i want it to be like yes it sucks but keep trying and it'll get better evenatully dont lose hope idk iff that makes sense but yeah
Peak
cathartic
The only disappointment I feel with the album is that Drag Path is not released for the entire world to hear.
REALLL IT'S SO AMAZING
NO TYLER WHY DID YOU CROSS THE LINE
“Did I disappoint you” Tyler will never disappoint me but Clancy… COME ON MAN I WAS SO HAPPY UNTIL YOUR CURTAIN SOMEHOW GREW A HOOD
although the ending was a bit upsetting, i feel it’s a damn good ending
fr
Fr
The ending was incredible, and after rewatching it, I felt really really moved
But also
CLANCY WHY NOOOO
He crossed the line 🥀
I loved it but left me devastated and sobbing (peak)
When the fixation is so bad im now grieving over Clancy 💔💔
Real
that transition to days lie dormant is actually so peak
Favorite is drum show, one way, center of mass
LEVEL UP: You are now level 3!

AMAZINGGGGGGG
Nothing beats city walls, it was sent straight from heaven

paladin strait cannot be topped
I decline this
Like your card on February 15th 2027
Little bit ominous
VERY ominous
Maybe a hot take but the chorus of robot voices is the weakest part imo
What's gunna happen to my card??? (Which I don't have)
It’ll decline when you’re paying for your 21 pilots CD’s
COUNT YOUR DAYS
I need my therapy bills covered. Especially after I put Paladin straight on right before City walls

I literally just cried whilst watching it… especially when Clancy Yk..
Torchbearer got me ngl
your username is breaking my heart
HI OMG
CHENFORD PFP
🥹
HEHEHEH HI
IDEK U BUT YOU’RE SO COOLIO
THANK UU
HAPPY B DAY TRENCH
Breach is an album
yep, peak one fs, i got the vinyl 
I got the CD and digital remains
fire
Same
no way really?
I heard Drum Show on the radio in Poland
I never hear them on the radio, except for stressed out
Also this album is my favorite thing ever
Breach in my opinion (most likely recency bias) is their best album yet, and the city walls music video was great and I've seen alot of people complaining about the ending. I understand why they ended the story the way they did and I wouldn't have it any other way
This is a long question of the week!
New question of the week pls 
When will this week end guys
Its been over a month
Hello hi, I'm ham ter josh dun, I must ask the people of the twenty one pilots discord server when there will be part 180 of the question of the week series
Maybe the real part 180 was the friends we made along the way
maybe…
real
Question of the year
question of the century
these are always question of the month now
it hasn’t been weekly in ages bahahahah you can see on the channel history
but yeah i used to do question of the day on a server
it used to be so tiring trying to figure out exactly what to ask
because you don’t wanna make it about that band all the time but then sometimes you do
Breach is the album of the year so maybe that's why 🤔 
not a bad thing to say
i think let god sort em out by clipse is album of the year but breach is definitely my personal album of the year
who tf is clipse
Rap dual
Im saving this
I loved when Josh said "its torching time!" And torched all over the place
HELP ?
what was the question of the week again?
opinions on breach
Were going for a record....for longest something
Someone should check in on Gabe or the other staff 
😭
TOP 5 LONGEST QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK:

its a long time
How’re u keeping track man
lol Ima update it every day until they make a new one
he figured you were keeping track
Of every time?
I smell dedication
Just figured you were keeping track😔
He let you down he breached your trust he let you die
Or in the city walls video clancy held up the logo and right before destroying nico said "it's clancy time" and clancyed everywhere, therefore destroying nico because hes a homophobic 90 year old man
HOMPHPBIC 90 YEAR OLD BAHAHAAHA
I mean to be fair look at clancy when hes with tb and look at how old nico looks
True true
Oh and then Clancy put the rainbow flag around his shoulders and became the rainbow bishop and lived out the rest of his life without homophobia
i wanted you to show me
The way to paint the city walls
It was really awesome and really cool and really sick and i loved it and i still love it in fact i love city walls i love breach breach breach breach is such a breach moment breach i love breach!!
I think this person likes Breach. Not sure though
Clearly they hate it smh
Sad indeed
question of the century
yummy
all of the above
Only one you cheater
oh shucks💔
tyler but josh is cuter
tyler was so pretty in the jumpsuit mv
