Oh daaaaaaaang.
What if Tyler IS the bishops, AND Clancy AND a bandito? After all, the bishops represent parts of HIM, the parts of his mind that work against him (red), and the banitos (I think) represent his source of strength, support and hope (yellow)? It may be that he realises he’ll always have to live with both colours inside of him, as they are both parts of who he is, but as time has gone on, he’s learning how to take control of the red instead of IT controlling him, and he is now strong enough to face his tormentors head on, making them bend to his will, instead of the other way around. Some people think orange might be the new era colour, and red + yellow = orange. I dunno, just throwing ideas around. 🤔 🤷🏼♀️
THE BEANIE/MASK LOOKS LIKE IT HAS CHEETAH EARS !!! and in pet cheetah he says: "I'm showing my faces in just enough places, I'm done with tip-toeing" HE IS NOT SCARED OF HIDING ANYMORE!!!
Damn, that an awesome thought.
🫨🫠🤯
Ned nubs
👏
Clancy isn't joining the bishops, the red tape is "Rebel Red", it's signifying the Banditos coming out of the shadows, the Bishops can't see yellow, so it's representing the Banditos coming out of the shadows and gearing up for a rebellion!
I would love a documentary-style film release in theatres about the creation of the Lore and the universe of Trench.
I've never sobbed over a band until I was introduced to tøp
REAL
for real😭
Right?!
His voice is so soothing. I need a full story read by TJ
i could listen to tyler's voice all day fr
at the End when he says „I‘m returning to trench“ there is a Alexa/Siri Voice in the backround saying „ This small eerie island has made me a weapon.“ in german. pretty cool to hear as a german note: oh shit you said it already in the video but still cool
Cool!
It‘s actually the word for word translation from a Clancy Letter in german. The voice says: „This small eerie island has made me a weapon. We both believe“- and then it cuts out. After that follow some words in french (I sadly don’t speak french). The question remains if there is any correlation to why they chose german and french or if it’s just an artistic choice.
And in french too 😭😭
@dansahne_3006 I am french and it says the same thing in french too ! The voice is just cut before it says "a weapon"
His voice in this video is just yes
So Clancy is putting the RED tape on the albums?!?!
Because he is now taking the authority from the Bishops to defeat the cycle of death. And he is going to set the captives free. ✝️
I also think the red tape on his Clancy uniform is symbolic of taking all the evil and destruction onto himself.
Yea
He puts the red tape over the eyes of all the characters on the albums, and as for blurryface, over the circle representing keons, symbolizing their deaths.
He be angry with the bishops tho, i think he is is so mad, he is using red to really be in their center of attention and then bammmm take em down and set dema free
"together we create an inferno" - is convincing enough for me to believe that is the name of the album since tyler always says that the fans have an important role in the creation of the lore, now its kinda like we created this story together, concluding with this last album - inferno. At the same time, i'd like to bring a thought - clancy said in this video that vialism preaches that "self-destruction" is the only way to the paradise, and I automatically link that "paradise" and "inferno" are opposite concepts and Clancy is fighting against vialism, against self-destruction, and i think, against their paradise, thats why the Inferno becomes a thing in here.
Inferno/fire also means purification
I thought a similar thing. “Inferno” could be the new single or the new album title.
I think it will be a different specific word for publicity, because so many songs are called inferno, but you're onto something
5:23 Absolutely! The lore is fluid. Clancy was only a narrator, certainly not Tyler. Ned was outside the lore... and then the fans theorized, and in the end we have out of body experiences explaining how Tyler is Clancy, and NED is a Neuro-Expansion Device.
True!
It was just me that freaked when he said the bishops uses people as VESSELS???
Me and you were man, of course I knew the Vessel album was in some way a part of the Dema lore to a lesser extent, sought of like an prologue section to everything that's going to happen with the next albums they released like Blurryface, Trench and Scaled and Icy, so cool. Vessel still remains my favourite by Twenty One Pilots out of the great discography, thay have yet top this album with their new one coming out soon.
"what a time to be alive" Fr I'm so excited
Video ends exactly at 4:05. 4/05, so 5th april, is a Friday. Albums are usually realised in Friday. Coincidence?? 👀
Yea but they be giving it next week as it says in the caption of their video and insta post
@@liamhughes679I think 2/29 is the release of a single, not the album.
@@McrLoVrfanAlt yea that can be true they released two singles in trench before they released the whole album
The two dates people have found from deciphering thing was 2/29 and 5/17. 2/29 is now confirmed since next week from today is that exact date. My guess is the full album drops May 17th
@@Jacobg1633 yea I can agree with that
If you guys didn't notice that he does mention Vessel. Look into the migraine song. It started on that album first.
There is also "A car, A torch, A death" from the self named album which the title may foreshadow either Clancy or Blurryface's death
I had a theory, what if… we all are Clancy? It doesn’t matter if we’re going through mental illness, there will be/has been a tough spot in our lives, right? What if we, like Clancy, fought to overcome those struggles, but failed, but tried again and again? And if we have passed those struggles, we’re coming back to them as a way to improve ourselves, like how Clancy is coming back to Trench. For the people who are still struggling (like me), we will be able to push through, with the help of the Banditos (other people who have overcome struggles). This is just a thought I had, but I’m SUPER stoked for the new album/single next week! I’ll be counting down with all of you guys! :)
I can confirm I'm one of these "casual laymen fans" that only has a superficial understanding of the DEMA lore
Love your vids RZ. I’m a Christian who found 21P about 6 years ago. Dig into the lore it’s quite amazing.
Remember in the South American festivals, the paint was taking over, beyond his hands and neck.
I know I’m not supposed to believe the hype, buuuuuut, IM SO FRIGGING HYPED ABOUT THIS VIDEO AND INVURHFDHHSUDSXIHXJCHSJØJENFHUER
I love how the mess of letters is suppose to be random but you still took time to do the O

Here’s a note:) Nico was betrayed by Keons - a bishop who admires Clancy for his escape attempts. Keons seizes the dragon to crash into the submarine and free Clancy. So the bishops kill him.
Them: How many times have you watched this video? Me: yes
My day just skidded to a stop today. Now we must do what is most important. 😊
I think this album will be the heaviest we've heard from them yet. Like Jumpsuit but even more. They are done running and hiding. The Banditos are officially on the offensive. I think we will see them tapping into the simmering rage. Not in an evil way...more of a vigilante justice way. Sometimes when an institution is as evil as Dema, there is no compromise and violence is required to right the wrong. As for Tyler/Clancy still having the black paint...he has finally realized that trying to get rid of the pain they represent has been part of what has kept him in the cycle. He is learning to instead embrace it and let it give him strength instead of being a weakness. The only way out is through. I can't wait for this album!!!
i hope they do a world tour and come to australia for like a "THE CLANCY TOUR" or something cool like that and everyone comes in wearing red with the new red symbol OMG!!!!! i have been a fan since "Vessel" 2013 and i cried so much over this trailer of the lore from tyler and josh's excellence & talents...also us as fans being able to give them the credit they deserve over the years is the best part of being a twenty one pilots hardcore fan and watching this story unfold is INSANE!! the new album feels like we might get a mixture of "blurryface + trench" styled music....but bigger??!!! especially with the red and the tapes still being around. WE ARE SOOOO BACK!!!!!
Hes such a girl dad with the cat ears 😂
With the paint coming back, yes to a staple of his look but also possible disguise to get back into dema for uprising of banditos ? Through the tunnels they used before
that leave the city bit is how i’m not home starts im calling it right now
We are starting with a battle song… 👊😱❤️🔥
Also have you all looked into how the symbols for the skeleton clique ( on their backpack in the outside) look a lot like the ‘Norse Mythology’ symbol for compass? And that the meaning of this actually seems like it’s from Norse mythology a long time ago, but it’s not real? And the true meaning behind it is “the path” or “THE WAY” 🤔🤔🤔
My man is really gonna make me buy a whole new raincoat to tape up 🙃😂
I freaked out at that last part when tyler showed up in the mask !!!
I think they’re using the red tape to sneak in
Wouldn't they use yellow since the bishops can't see it? It's rebel red, so wouldn't that suggest an open rebellion? Omg I'm so excited for this lol
A theory I saw is that we are DEMA citizens and when the people found the letters on the website, Clancy got famous and the Bishops took him to make the Scaled and Icy era.
imagine a chris nolan movie about this, just imagine
Haha I can't see it because of the supernatural thing and Nolan don't want to do supernatural film (he didn't wanted to direct superman because of this) I could absolutely see a Denis Villeneuve film about this too !
yeah i just thought “fiction” and forgot that there is the supernatural factor in it, the seizure, miraculous power kidnapped by vialism. but i still feel like the way tyler is telling this story is very similar to the way nolan does a lot of times, but yeah prolly won’t happen
@@marlonvicentini haha yeah ! I hope this album will be really popular so a film/series/comic book/book ... Could actually happened
i believe tyler is capable of even acting in a movie for this story, i want to see this
@@marlonvicentini totally
"I'll tape my eyes" from The Outside makes so much nore sense now
And Tyler is just laughing and laughing at us trying to grasp all this information- strap in everyone-the new music is coming in hot! 🔥🔥🔥
Im learning so much. I love it.
I think he became known in Dema because he actually got to see and become part of the Banditos, though briefly. Up until that, they were just legend and fairytale.
Great point!
The collab we've been waiting for
the video is 4:05 minutes. 04/05 is when the album is coming. 4 + 5 = 9.
Clancy is known in Dema because of the “concert” they play in Nico and the niners, and when they find the bandito jacket on the ground
oh my gosh! I am so happy I saw your video today! my mom is a huge fan of twenty one pilots and I was telling her about your theories and videos! and that was on the 1000th day SAI was released and I showed her the red tape and then she saw twitters of DEMA letters and freaked out then top released this video and then about 30 mins later she sent the video and we started freaking out! thank you so much for updating us and giving us info about all these videos and hinting these theories for top I really appreciate you! -a true top fan
Isnt Tyler talking about violent island in migraine??
Yes that's basically how they chose the islands name, they based it on the lyric from migraine , also in the outside music video when they are in the cave you can hear the melody from migraine
13:27 yeah that is definitely new piano stuff, it seems most people havent picked up on that bit unfortunately, but it's most definitely not Leave the City in a different key or whatever (completely different chords), im so hyped to hear whatever that is in a song, maybe the chords of a chorus or verse?
@jager9022 it sounds like the outside
14:25 Piano piece is “Heathens”, played in the same style as the “MTV Unplugged” version.
He said Nico was betrayed because he was betrayed by Keons. And then Keons was killed. Fantastic reaction. I'm so excited they put out this video and for the new era
Nevermind. You were all over it like 5 seconds after I typed this lol
Yeah I was so taken aback and was confused by the wording! But glad to have had it clarified!
@@Stolen.Potential completely understandable! There's so much going on in the video that's it difficult to take it all in in the first viewing. Loved the reaction and the convo with Justin. I'd love to see you, Justin and Dema do a video together after the first single drops. I hope it happens. Loving your content
Oh my gosh I’m so exited!!!
IM DYING THIS IS SO EXCITING
You two together was epic haha!
The fact that we now know that Tyler is Clancy is so relieving to know
Honestly! It clears up SO much.
I really enjoy your content bro. Keep it up.
I feel like Clancy might replace Keons. If the red tape on the album covers means that the albums are under the control of the bishops, Tyler's red tape and red mask, the red door and the overall red vibe would mean he might really become evil...
No, I think the red tape represents the Banditos moving from being yellow/in hiding to coming to face the bishops in a fight head on
Rebel red, they're fighting back
@@jennifermathers7565 good point
@@jennifermathers7565 either Clancy facing and fighting the bishops or becoming one. Two very different ways of ending the story, but hey, either of them can be possible!
@@LillaLafferton i sorta think that Clancy will become a bishop, have thought that since the new logo dropped and looks like a 10
As well-executed as it could be, I REALLY DON’T wanna see Clancy turn to the dark side and work with the Bishops or something, but the more I look at the teaser, the more sinister it looks, especially with all the red.
Rent a racehorse, force a sponsor?
Maybe he'll be undercover to get everyone out. Yikes I hope he doesn't sacrifice himself..."We'll win but not everyone will get out" Oh boy this will be a bumpy ride if that happens in the storyline
Me too
Did they manage to come to your wedding? Or reached out to you? Forgive me, I didn't know if you spoke on it or not.
I did the same thing with the keons Nico betrayal thing!!! 😂
I think i discovered something, the weird sounds from the final song at the end of the video is a romanian traditional instrument called bucium, i think its connecting with their concert in Romania.
ik the story technically starts at heavydirtysoul but it also is technically a cycle so the story COULDDD start anywhere within the jumpsuit,natn,levitate, heavydirtysoul timeline. What I mean by that is Tyler already has yellow tape on his jacket when pulling it out of the trunk. How would he know that their colors are yellow if it was the first time. Actually you’re right that could be the case. I know Tyler says that he didn’t know if the Banditos existed until they showed up in the trench but something to think about.
You should still do a lore recap now, as well as a speculation part at the end of the video!
Did you notice his mask had 2 nubs!? Like NED maybe?
Or like a cheetah!
I want a Netflix Series based on this so bad ❤
That would be the best possible scenario
The music I believe is from Ned's Cozy Fireplace
Tyler say that there are 9 bishops but we can divide the 4 albums into 8 and the nine bishop is the new album (I''ts my theory))
Me during the first 12 minutes of this video: “JUST PLAY THE DAMN VIDEO”
We noticed that when the killed keons you hear only 6 knife slashes but there’s 9 bishops. So shouldn’t we have heard 8 slashes? Idk if it will mean anything, but thought that was odd
I'm a little confused about which bishop is dead... In the video Clancy claims it was Nico that was betrayed and who he seized, but the "weapon.jpg" image said "seize Keons" and it's Keons' tower that is taped over on the cover of the Blurryface album... [EDIT] - Got it now, thanks to the wonderful people who replied to my comment! - [EDIT]
Keons betrayed Nico
He is implying that Nico was betrayed by Keons since he helped Clancy escape again... and I'm guessing the tape over Keons is because he is dead.
I think Keons is dead, and it was called a betrayal to Nico because he’s the leader, so an act against the bishops at all would be classified as a betrayal of Nico, because it interferes with his plans.
He said to seize is what its called when you take over the body of a vessel. Keons helped release tyler/clancy with trash the dragon and so the bishops killed keons. making him an available vessel for clancy to seize. Hence, seize keons
@@adriannas.1311 So the way the Clancy video is put together is deceptive then, because when Clancy says "then Nico was betrayed" it shows the other bishops killing one of them, so the direct implication would be that the other bishops betrayed Nico, killing him.
'' i want to believe that this is the last time. but im not sure'' might this be a hint as inn they are talking about this being the last lore album but can we be sure ?
LETZGO
I feel like there's gonna be some serious raps on this album
As someone who only knows 3 TøP songs and knows nothing about the lore, I am so lost and out of the loop lol.
WELCOME FRIEND! This is the last album in the storyline they’ve been telling. They’re going out with a bang!
@@Stolen.Potential I had heard there was lore in the past but I didn't realize it throughout ALL of their albums. Wild. I think it's really cool to see bands telling stories throughout multiple albums, another example I can think of is Sleep Token. It's something that I've always wanted to do myself actually, but currently I don't have a way to record any of my ideas. Regardless my interest in TøP has gone way up.
Clancy's hands are painted with black, this is the blurryface mark on him
From a political view, Dema represents the ageless force of tiranny that creates empires, states, countries. It creates huge, faceless masses of people that can be easily manipulated -or in this case used as a vessel. Meanwhile the Banditos embody the ever-present force of rebellion and brotherhood. This force creates much more democratic and still tribe-like communities. It is also much more in touch with nature and shamanic practices, as we can see they formed an alliance with magical creatures of the wild, like Ned
Nico was betrayed by Keons.
Welcome back to trench!
What if he’s going in there to free the rest of the people stuck in Dema, and he will need to sacrifice himself to do it (“we’ll win but not everyone will get out”)?
In the last few seconds there is some woman talking in german in the background, does anyone fully understand what she’s saying? I understand something like „ … Insel hat mich zu einer Waffe gemacht…“ / „… Island made me a weapon…“ 😮
I AM SO CRAZY
What if Clancy is formed as the name of the other bishops, like Keons = choKE ON Smoke
Could the red used by clansy be vermilion?
I noticed that he says trench weirdly. I don't know if this is just me, but it might not mean anything, but hey, the drums in the saturday music video hinted to the colors of the new era, soooo
I'm working on a video right now but I also have homework 😭
they meant Nico was betrayed by Keons saving the boys... so he got jabbed up
Not sure if anyone noticed, but he says the name of every album with tape on the cover besides scaled and icy because it was propaganda. Maybe he said the name of the next album too?
Here's the thing, if Tyler will be used as a weapon against the banditos, then I believe that defeats the whole purpose of the band. Destroying hope?? Thats something they definitely would not do. As much as I love twist endings, I have to believe this story ends well. The message should be a good one.
Maybe Clancy will face Blurryface and they kinda became even, like opposite forces with equal power that exist together, as yin yang from feng shui. When you have mental issues, you never overcome and vanish them, you need to learn how to coexist with them. They are there, showing themselves sometimes, but you learn how to always face them and make them shrink again
So do you think the album name would be "Inferno" or " I AM CLANCY" ???
ohhh i knew i recognized your name from the discord 😭
That’s me!
3:54 What? First time you heard him calling out Vialism? Are you telling me you never listened to the Discord Cluque discussion with Tyler? It was in Jan 2020 I think. Right before pandemic . Dude you have to listen to that. Tyler goes into detail about Vialism.
This is the first time a character (Clancy) has addressed Vialism in the LORE. Tyler has definitely discussed Vialism outside of the albums and music videos, but this is the first we’re hearing of it from characters within the universe.
@@Stolen.Potential yes I figured you might put an astrix on that comment, and a bit later you did say outside of interviews, but I was reacting on the go to your reaction. I didn't listen all the way through and come back. :)
“I Am Clancy” Is a nice name for a song, but is it just me that thinks the ending looks like the Fairly Local door set?
Guys, can you explain why’s Keons helps Clancy?
There’s only theories so far
Nico was betrayed by Keons therefore he had him killed.
Did he have black hands? 👀
I feel like heathens is complementary to the lore but not necessarily needed.
I like your videos but mannnnn, you ruined it by passing every 5 seconds to explain every word.
