Trench is the fifth studio album by American musical duo Twenty One Pilots, released on October 5th, 2018 through Fueled by Ramen. It is the band's first studio album in three years, after the breakthrough success of their previous album, Blurryface. Recorded in secret during a year-long public silence, it is a concept album which explores mental health, suicide, and doubt, themes prominently featured in the band's previous works, framed in the metaphorical city of Dema and the surrounding valley known as "Trench". The album was also the first release of the newly-revived Elektra Music Group.
The album is supported by six singles: "Jumpsuit", "Nico and the Niners", "Levitate", "My Blood", "Chlorine" and "The Hype". To promote the album, the band embarked on The Bandito Tour, which began at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee on October 16th, 2018. Trench received acclaim from critics, who applauded its ambition, songwriting and more cohesive production.
It has a giant diversity of genres just like their previous albums. For example there's an alternative rock song ("Jumpsuit"), a song that fuses rap and reggae ("Nico and the Niners"), a pure hip-hop song ("Levitate") and a pop-rock song with some elements of funk ("My Blood").
The music videos are really cool and are all connected to each other.
