The Kerrang! Chart: The best new music this week
The ultimate new music countdown – every Friday!
"This record is about pushing through…"
In his first interview since twenty one pilots returned from their year-long break, frontman Tyler Joseph has opened up in a half-hour chat with Zane Lowe on Beats 1.
The two caught up at Tyler's home studio where the majority of new record Trench was recorded, discussing everything from his faith and how that ties into music, to their forthcoming full-length and how fans have helped him to build the fantastic world surrounding it. Bonus: we've even gotten an extra little insight into the album, with Tyler revealing the final line of Trench's last track Leave The City: 'They know what I mean.'
