Nico is the leader of the 9 bishops. They control the city of Dema that lies within Trench. Dema essentially represents mental struggles. The bishop’s main goal is to get the citizens to unalive themselves. The people in yellow with the torches are the Banditos. They’re the good guys. In this one they’ve come to rescue Clancy (Tyler) from Dema (help him through his depression). The yellow represents hope. The bishops can’t see yellow and are afraid of it, that’s why they threw the yellow flowers in Jumpsuit, to give Clancy a chance to escape. There is……so much more to it, but you’ll get there with the next videos. Levitate, Saturday, the outside. Not all of their videos are technically Løre, but once you know it, you can see it in everything.

[@monkeyonthebranch]

perfect explanation

[@iczorro]

Excellent, succinct summary

[@georgetaxi8179]

They do that same handshake on the song "Stressed out," which happens to be their biggest hit. Has over 2 billion views. No doubt you have heard it.

[@Hoplyte8]

Both of your thoughts about razor blades are spot-on. Each song has a message of its own, often about convincing people to fight against self-harm and destructive thoughts. Then there's the storyline, which is an allegorical representation of Tyler finding his own freedom from destructive thoughts and convincing others to do the same. Those hooded figures, the bishops, are manifestations of those harmful inner voices There's a lot to chew on, and even the non-storyline songs link up. This has allusions to Stressed Out, for example, like the handshake or the hooded figure Blurryface (mentioned in Stressed Out). T0P is a wild ride.

[@angelb-oo7ob]

You have a very dedicated knowledgable gang Mr Sparks….thanking Joanne for always remembering me….🫂🫶🏻🤍👋🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@joeesparks7]

Joanne is amazing! She is the 2nd Jo in Command around here lol. Thanks fir joining the premiere

[@angelb-oo7ob]

Mr Sparks…you won’t remember but I asked you if it was important to comment I was anxious about it and you said it would help but not to stress. Well you gave me the confidence to, and then I joined the chats and to have someone not only say hello but remember my name make someone who hides in the shadows of a scary world felt seen and it means the world. Found you through Ren/ Black Pegasus but stayed because of your talents and calming voice. Please give Joanne my heartfelt thanks too….loves n hugs to you all over there. Angela 🫂🤍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@jesrush]

Let’s go!!!✌️😊🌼🔥we’ve been here there whole time. You were asleep….time to wake up.-Tyler

[@SherryBandito]

One of my favorite lines

[@SHAREit.69]

This song has some messages that when you play it backwards you can understand it 🔥🔥

[@jeditear1]

So glad to see you get back to Twenty One Pilots. Pay attention to themes like Red and Yellow. Natural light from fire on torches, and sterile fake tube lights. 🌼

[@Meow-Meow501]

Joe, the handshake is indeed important. It was originally used in their song Stressed Out.

[@Jules-R]

Joe, you have no idea how much it warms my heart seeing you really getting into the music, visuals and story of this journey! I Am Clancy will bring the threads together for you but yes the hooded figures are the nine bishops 'Nico and the Niners' who rule the dystopian city of Dema "Dema don't control us". The freedom fighters who come to get him out are the Banditos. Tyler has a draw full of yellow flowers, showing that he has escaped and been returned many times.

[@nikita8370]

Welcome to the wonderfully complex and poignant world of twenty one pilots. Their artistry is next level. Love your reaction, ready for more!! ❤|-/💛

[@benr2018]

JOE - ONE MORE THING: rewatch the part with the kids near the end...THEN you need to watch The Outside from TOP...It'll connect the two...you NEED TO SEE IT!!

[@amypowell6307]

Lol I love how invested you are in the lore. They are a great story telling group. Plus the music hits hard.

[@avajenks8625]

I’m absolutely loving the TOP journey

[@robynriley1713]

Everything is a metaphor with Tyler. He’s a musical genius!!!

[@lexibrax]

I caught this half way but happy I did! I love your enthusiasm and appreciation for TOP!

[@jeffjohnson9248]

If you want to know more about the lore check out the "I am clancy" video. By far my fav artists all time.

[@sarahplatt7046]

The lyrics of TØP songs have literally saved my life more than once. As someone said, watch the videos I Am Clancy for a condensed overall of the lore.

[@ding161090]

I just love seeing people get the lore piece by piece, it's absolutely amazing to me even though i don't get to experience it all over again by myself

[@Meow-Meow501]

Joe, this MV was shot in Ukraine! TOP have BTS for Nico, Jumpsuit & Levitate if you are interested.

[@dirtybloodyheart]

So with the flowers, I think we're supposed to notice that the drawer he's putting it in has others of the same flower, and that flower is what he was holding in the last video when he was caught by nico and was dragged back. Meaning he's tried to escape several times before.

[@maurig1582]

I love all your reactions, great video! Them putting the stripes at the end reminded me of when I went to their concert. The day before the concert my friends and I were taping our clothes. We felt a sense of rebellion and liberation as we did this and all the way to the concert. I love these guys and the meaning behind everything they do. Keep it up!

[@GarnetJ]

Love seeing your excitement! You are doing great picking up on a lot of the elements. There’s a lot of symbolism, such as the yellow flower you noticed. In the box there were others, indicating that he’s tried to escape multiple times. And the items he puts into his backpack are call backs to previous videos, such as the white sunglasses from Ride. As others have indicated, the secret hand shake is a call back to Stressed Out. Tyler almost seems hesitant as the Banditos approach, until Josh shows his face and does the handshake. It further pulls Tyler out of Dema’s control. You would enjoy the Stressed Out video - even if you’ve heard the song a million times. And now that you understand who/what Blurryface (aka Nico) is, you will detect his presence and control over Tyler. This storyline crosses multiple albums. But in Trench, he brought the characters to life. Some of the lyrics and inspiration for the video come from George Orwell’s 1984, such as the references to razor blades. Just like Ren, Tyler is really drawn to dystopian literature.

[@sherylh2570]

Excited for you to see all their vids!!!!

[@OrganicOrc]

I see several people mention that they do the handshake in Stressed Out as well, but it goes further than that. It is, in fact, Tyler and Josh's personal handshake in real life!

[@MichaelAnderson-ck4wp]

You definitely need to watch "The Outside " now 😊

[@shengy]

I can't wait until you get to The Outside video!!!! Eeeeee...you got me cheesin'! Ode to Sleep is a good one to check out. Nothing really to do with the lore but everything to do with their come up. Doc style videography so not as aesthetically lovely as this era. Starts off with them at the beginning playing a show for 12 people.

[@tarshnottrash1483]

Totally get what you mean on the brushstrokes thing. It makes me so happy seeing someone appreciate the whole of what tøp brings … this is why we love them it’s more than music, it’s a whole world bought to you by inspiration imagination & love. I’m smiling so big just watching you enjoy this.

[@shaunacohen7630]

Fantastic reaction! It was fun watching you put the pieces together. Can't wait for Levitate!

[@angiehh516]

I absolutely love the story that Tyler weaves in all of these videos and actually over the course of several albums. His brain….🤯

[@james68759]

I'm loving your twenty one pilots journey and I really enjoy your input from a videographer point of view. Great content man thank you!

[@LoriMc-jq3qp]

Brah Brah, my friend, there is soooo much lore to catch with these guys!!! Josh created the this saga from their inception. This kid came in with a plan from get go. Almost every song has lore references or story concept/progression. It may be a rabbit hole, but it's a damn entertaining one. The Clique has been monitoring the videos l, Twitter feed, etc., for more than 10 YEARS and I havent found a single person who actually thinks they have it all figured out. Also Ned exists outside of lore, but also Ned stories cross paths but aren't l, as far as I can tell, inextricably intertwined. Hmu I'll give you whatever info I have come across but it's just a fun riiiidde

[@alexiaspaedt-mcintosh5311]

Always here for them!

[@tinesess3521]

The cinematography of this trilogy is absolutely stunning!! My favorite song off this album tho is Morph...so many great songs that contribute to the storyline dont have videos like, morph, neon gravestones, bandito, and leave the city ❤

[@benr2018]

DEMA is a fictional place for Tyler that gives him his powers and his anxieties. nico/blurryface are the same people. He's revolting from them and looking for salvation.

[@shannonbrown3904]

Levitate next 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I can’t get enough of your reactions to my favorite band! You get ‘it’s and I love watching you on this journey ❤

[@Tessimistic420]

Yurrrrrr ❤ love watching with you JoeE

[@bethannboldt281]

Your observations are really interesting love seeing your emotions kicking in too. You will love Levitate so get ready for another lyric masterpiece. Also try My Blood and Heathens

[@SherryBandito]

Great reaction 🌻

[@highndriving420]

Go as far down the rabbit hole as you can!

[@ceekayy79]

Yuuuur

[@NintendoJames79]

Hiya ceekayy, I’m replying to comments for Uncle Al, lol

[@HaruSpirits]

Hi! idk if anyones mentioned it yet but Twenty One Pilots released a video called "I Am Clancy" where Tyler recaps the entire lore up until the current point (Overcompensate)!! I'd love to see you react to that!

[@iczorro]

I love watching people fall in love with them

[@robynriley1713]

Keep going! I’m here to watch you experience this. You’re going to love it! You are now part of the skeleton clique.

[@cforce215]

The previous album before Trench is called Blurry Face. That album is about the nine bishops (aka the people in red, aka Nico and the Niners). That's why that album has nine circles on the cover. They represent the nine pillars in DEMA. DEMA represents all of the negative thoughts we deal with that can lead to self harm like Depression, Existentialism, Materialism, Anxiety. We got to see the nine pillars of DEMA in this video, but you didn't mention it. Not sure if you missed it or just didn't make a comment. To better understand this video, allow me to introduce you to the nine bishops and their respective song from Blurry Face. As I previously stated each bishop has their own song and their name is mentioned in the song, but in an encrypted way. Here are the nine bishops, their Blurry Face song, and how their name is mentioned in the lyrics: 1. Keons - Heavydirtysoul - choKE ON Smoke 2. Nico - Stressed Out - He is called by his nickname in this song, aka Blurry Face 3. Listo - Ride - we have a LIST Of people that we would take 4. Andre - Fairly Local - tomorrow i'll keep a beat, AND REpeat yesterday's dance 5. Sacarver - Tear in My Heart - she'S A CARVER 6. Vetomo - Lane Boy - but will they be aliVE TOMOrrow 7. Reisdro - Doubt - temperatuRE IS DROpping 8. Lisden - Polarize - all i feeL IS DENial 9. Nills - Goner - and beaten dowN, ILL Slip away In this video we see the nine bishops practicing vialism. Vialism an ancient religion that promotes self harm as the only way out. That's why Clancy (Tyler) was singing for them to save their razor blades. Even though the bishops are encouraging them to use the razor blades for self harm, he's telling them not yet, because the banditos are on the way to help them. As illustrated above, Twenty One Pilots likes to be cryptic. We see a great example of that in this music video. At the beginning there was a message the banditos broadcast to Clancy in DEMA. The message was played in reverse. The message was "We are the banditos. You will escape DEMA and head true east. We denounce vialism." This is why in the song Clancy (Tyler) was singing "East is up!" Because he knew that he needed to head east to find the banditos who were there to help him escape DEMA. While there isn't a music video for the song Bandito on the Trench album, I encourage you to listen to it. It helps you understand the rallying cry of the banditos; "SAHLO FOLINA." That will also help you better make the connection to Overcompensate. One hint, there is a kind Bishop. The kind Bishop is Keons. We are told about this in Clancy's letters. Keep an eye out for him in future videos. He helps Clancy and the other citizens of DEMA.

[@Dema_DontControlUs]

Watching the Lore videos is great but you're missing out on a lot of great music with the rest. The entire album of Trench (including Jumpsuit, Levitate and Nico and the Niners) is just fire all round. I get that your main focus is the videography though and I like that aspect. Keep it up man. Love your reactions

[@X_Podius]

You should react to migraine and neon gravestones, they both talk about suicide, migraine is more blatant but you’ll need to learn more about the lore to understand the suicidal part of neon gravestones

[@Tessimistic420]

Ode to Sleep and migraine 🔥🔥🔥🔥TØP videos ❤

[@Goddess_Moros]

❤❤

[@TruthDojaShow]

I respect that you're going in blind but once you're done with these main lore videos, you should still do I am Clancy to fill in any blanks. But I can't wait for more from Twenty One pilots. Let's goooo

[@jhemarca2596]

Ive watch this video but just realized they were creating neon gravestones 😮

[@bittenbyatickgirl]

I always wanted to know what a videographer thought about their videos. They are like a movie. Awesome reaction! 👏🏽👏🏽So happy to see you getting joy out of these guys. My favorite band!

[@julieflynn5827]

The oxymoron makes complete sense. Broad and narrow.

[@paulbytheway4590]

Great reactions as usual. Checkout Potter Paypers new 1 Potterr Payper x M Huncho ...2 wise men . 🔥 🔥 🔥 Potterr Payoer...Thanks For waiting 🔥 🔥 🔥 Potter Payoet never misses

[@NintendoJames79]

Joe E has done some great Potter Payper reactions, we have a discord member who introduced a bunch of us to his stuff, so I’m stoked to see Joe E check out this new one too 🎉

[@poptivist]

can you explain what it means that you can tell they used a cinema camera by the dynamic range? is that that like the fine-ness of the detail between colors/light/dark?

[@LoriMc-jq3qp]

I am Clancy gonn help you connect some dots. The thing is the MUSIC is genius. Period.

[@mindymcgowan5729]

Please watch My Blood!

[@user-xi2fg5um1i]

If you play this song over the video of Heathens, it makes sense. This is a double meaning for that video.

[@walterplyons]

Please react to... Nine and Dex - Pecan Pie they are Pete and Bas' grandsons

[@staciemoisa4884]

This rabbit hole is fun, isn't it? Give yourself a break. We have had a decade to figure out the lore. You are picking up on the lore little by little. I saw many great comments that will help you along. Enjoy!

[@poptivist]

you're not reading into the razorblades.
