The ARIA platinum album Blurryface – which followed Twenty One Pilots’ Fueled By Ramen debut album, 2013’s US Platinum certified Vessel – made a stunning chart debut upon its initial release, entering the US SoundScan/Billboard 200 at #1. Blurryface spawned a series of hit singles, beginning with Tear In My Heart and followed by the ARIA double platinum Ride and the 5x ARIA platinum certified, GRAMMY® Award-winning Stressed Out. The latter track – which reached #2 on Billboard’s “Hot 100” and #2 on the ARIA singles chart. Stressed Out was a worldwide breakthrough for Twenty One Pilots, earning gold, platinum, and multi-platinum certifications in countries spanning Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. The Stressed Out companion video was an equivalent success, now boasting close to 1.4 billion views at YouTube alone. The companion video for Ride – directed by Reel Bear Media – has now garnered over 657 million views via Blackbirds’ hugely popular YouTube channel.

Ride was followed by still another world-conquering hit single, the ARIA 4 x platinum Heathens, featured on Atlantic Records’ blockbuster SUICIDE SQUAD: THE ALBUM. The US 6x RIAA platinum certified single – which received three GRAMMY® Award nominations including “Best Rock Performance” (Tyler Joseph, songwriter) – spent four consecutive weeks at the US #2 on the “Hot 100” while also topping Billboard’s “Hot Rock Songs” for a record-shattering 28 consecutive weeks and counting. The unprecedented one-two punch of Ride and Heathens made Billboard history, establishing Twenty One Pilots as only the third rock act with simultaneous top 5 “Hot 100” singles in the chart’s 58-year history, following only the Beatles and Elvis Presley.
Heathens – which hit #1 on the iTunes chart in over 60 countries – also rose to #5 in the United Kingdom and the top 10 in over 15 countries, with platinum and multi-platinum certification in Australia, Canada, Italy, and New Zealand. In addition, the Heathens companion video received the 2016 MTV Video Music Award for “Best Rock Video” and has now earned more than 1 billion individual views via YouTube alone. 2017 saw the release of yet another Blurryface hit in Heavydirtysoul. Like its predecessor, the US RIAA platinum certified single’s companion video received the 2017 MTV Video Music Award for “Best Rock Video” with views now exceeding 84 million via YouTube.
