Blurryface (Audio CD)

(Not Craig, I am his daughter. I use his account.)I have struggled with bipolar depression and cyclothymia since my freshman year of high school (I am now a sophomore in college). Nothing that I have been put through has helped more than their music. I had no doubts about this album, and they proved themselves yet again. The lyrics are art, and I love reading people's different interpretations of them. In one line he states that there are some tracks on this record that feel common. The beats of some definitely sound like they could be on the radio, but the poetry is what sets them apart. Honestly, I love that they're still fairly small because it adds the personal bond and I feel like they're my friends. I highly recommend this album, and this band as a whole.

This is an awesome album! I received it in the mail today as a preorder through their website. As with previous albums, Twenty One Pilots keep up their consistent theme of thoughtful/philosophical poetry based lyrics, which are written by the singer, Tyler Joseph. The sound of the music itself is kind of a passionate and genre-bridging mix of rap, rock, indie pop, hip hop, emo, electronic and reggae music (which varies depending on the song). Plus the singer both raps and sings in most songs. The singer also plays the keyboard, piano, ukulele and bass guitar. The drummer, Josh Dun (it's a two-member band), is very talented too! I first heard this band locally a few years ago at Arkansas State University, where they stole the show as an opener to the great live band Neon Trees.They seem to have a deep religious theme in most of their songs (especially the ones that aren't top singles), as with many of the songs the singer seems to actually be singing to God, while...Read more amznJQ.onReady('jQuery', function() { amznJQ.available('popover', function() { var widgetDom = jQuery("#RI3XOF3ZQRNCN_imageSection_3D83D018-E318-11E5-B153-27F2292D6E70"); var images = widgetDom.find(".review-image-thumbnail"); for (var c=0;c

One of the bigger breakout sensations of the past few years from the indie band circuit, Twenty One Pilots (or TOP, as I will frequently refer to them from here on) are also an increasingly polarizing band, as a perusal of the early reviews for their second studio album Blurryface will verify. While their first studio album, Vessel, was hailed as a revolutionary breakout work by many, or at least a very strong opening salvo by an undeniably talented band, it seems there has begun to form a bit of a canyon of thought regarding this, their latest album. While some see Blurryface as a continuance of growth and maturity from Vessel, others see it as a step back, a disappointment compared to what they showed they were capable of in their previous albums (they have two very popular self-released albums that preceed Vessel: a self titled album, and the now unavailable Regional at Best.) So, where does the truth about Blurryface lie? Honestly, I think it's a matter of subjectivity, and...Read more
