Clancy is the seventh studio album by American musical duo Twenty One Pilots, released on May 24, 2024, through Fueled by Ramen and Elektra Records. Titled after the protagonist introduced in their fifth studio album, Trench (2018), the visual album is stated to be the final installment of the band's nearly decade-long conceptual series. [2] [3]

Contents

Written by frontman Tyler Joseph and produced with frequent collaborator Paul Meany, Clancy was announced on February 29, 2024, following weeks of speculation. Four singles preceded the album's release: "Overcompensate", "Next Semester", "Backslide", and "The Craving". Clancy received positive reviews from critics and reached number one on the album charts in Australia, Germany and Scotland, number two in the UK, number three in the US, and the top five in various other countries. To support the album, the band is embarking on the Clancy World Tour, which commenced in Denver in August 2024.

Background and promotion

In February 2021, while promoting Twenty One Pilots's sixth studio album Scaled and Icy (2021), lead singer Tyler Joseph revealed that the album's closing track "Redecorate" acts as "an intentional hint at what he wants to try to do next", contrasting the song's more ominous tone with the "brand new, sparkling, happy, colorful" sound of its parent album. [4] In a September 2022 interview, Joseph claimed that the band's next album would conclude the storyline of the character Clancy and the fictional city of Dema that were introduced in their fifth album Trench (2018). [5]

On February 15, 2024, the cover art of Scaled and Icy as well as Vessel (2013), Blurryface (2015) and Trench were updated to be partially concealed with red tape on streaming platforms. [6] Shortly after, people began to post on their social media that they had received mail from the band containing cryptic letters. Around the same time, billboards and posters in numerous countries began displaying a new band logo. [7]

On February 22, 2024, the band released a narrated video on their social media platforms. In the video, the narrator, who reveals himself to be Clancy, summarizes the story of the previous three albums and his multiple attempts to escape from Dema; [lower-alpha 1] he ends the video by stating that he would be "returning to Trench". [9] [10] Clancy was officially announced on February 29, 2024, with its release initially set for May 17. Its lead single, "Overcompensate", was released on the same day. [11] [12]

"It's because I love these songs, and I believe in them enough to pretend to sing in front of a camera to each one. And that's what we're gonna do, because that's how I want to present this album."

–Tyler Joseph on why every song from the album has a music video [1]

On March 18, Joseph announced that each song on the album would have an accompanying music video, with all set to be released alongside the album; [13] its release was subsequently delayed by a week due to the production timeframe required to complete the videos. [14] [15] Despite this, the band announced listening parties that would take place in selected stores through various countries, between May 18 and May 23, before the album's release. [16]

The second single, "Next Semester", was released on March 27. [17] [18] The third single, "Backslide", was released on April 25. [19] [20] On May 9, the band debuted "The Craving" live during their small-scale concert at the Electric Ballroom in London. [21] The song was released on May 22 as the fourth single; [22] this version is subtitled "(Single Version)" in contrast to the album's "(Jenna's Version)", and features different instrumentation and production. [23]

On May 24, the day of the album's release, the band premiered the music video for 10 songs of the album (excluding those for the singles, which had already been released) on YouTube through a livestream, wherein the band offered insights into the creation of each song and its respective video. Each video was individually uploaded to the band's YouTube channel independent of the livestream after its premiere. [24] [25] On May 29, the band released an online-only collection, titled Clancy – Digital Remains, which includes live versions of the four singles and several pages containing new photos and "artifacts" in relation to the making of the album. [26] The music video for "Paladin Strait", the album's closing track, was released on June 21 and directed by Jensen Noen. [27]

On September 19, the duo performed "Routines in the Night" on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon . The scene was recorded in advance, airing as the show-closing performance. [28] [29]

Composition and themes

Debra Kate Schafer of The Aquarian Weekly described Clancy as an "amalgamation" of every iteration of Twenty One Pilots' artistry. [30] It is an alternative rock, [30] pop rock, [31] hip hop, [31] synth-pop, [31] bedroom pop, [30] emo rap, [30] indie rock, [31] and garage rock [30] album that blends rock and roll musicianship, subtle hip hop directions, and an "all-encompassing" pop-stylized atmosphere. [30] The album was primarily composed and produced by Joseph and frequent collaborator Paul Meany, with additional writing contributions from Jake Torrey on "Routines in the Night". Five of the album's thirteen tracks were written entirely by Joseph. [32] Several songs were originally written on the baritone ukulele before they were arranged on other instruments, such as the bass guitar. [33]

Like previous works in the series, Clancy is framed in the metaphorical world of "Trench" and the dystopian city of "Dema". It follows the titular character as he returns to Trench to free his fellow citizens of Dema after he escaped and was granted a "miraculous power". [10] [9]

Songs

Clancy's accompanying storyline resumes in its opener "Overcompensate", a 1990s-tinged rocktronica track [34] driven by synthesizer layers, [35] hip hop stylings, and a "racing" breakbeat. The track is also the first one that the band finished while they were working on the album. [35] [36] Its upbeat production continues with the punk-infused garage rock tune "Next Semester", [18] which details a panic attack Joseph suffered as a college student. [36] "Backslide" is a hip hop and rap rock track that elevates itself with echoing and morphed background vocals and "nonchalant" spoken verses, broken up by a "grueling" and "emotive" chorus. [37] [38] [39] Conceived as a "love letter" to the band's home state and region, "Midwest Indigo" is a "thrilling" and "joyous" pop-punk track. [40] Opening with a "reverberating" alarm, [39] "Routines in the Night" contains subtle vocal mannerisms that pays homage to "The Run and Go", a track from Vessel (2013). [39] "Vignette" serves as a direct homage to Trench, with recurring themes of death, rebirth, decay and awakening—changing from moments of isolation to the culminating finale of a layered and crowded admission of "no, not me, it's for a friend". [39] "The Craving (Jenna's Version)" is a tender acoustic piece written for Joseph's wife Jenna, which presents itself as an "ode to the imperfections of such a strong emotion, and that even in the existence of tragedy and self-doubt, love prevails". [39] [40]

"Lavish" is a dream pop track that brings "funk and flair" to the record, and is punctuated by "hypnotic rap verses" and includes a "hearty bassline". [39] [40] "Navigating" is a dance-rock and synth-rock track reminiscent of Bloc Party, which is propelled by "relentless drumming" from Dun. [41] [40] "Snap Back" includes references to previous songs such as "Heavydirtysoul" and "Backslide", with vocals that are "smooth yet rugged". [39] "Oldies Station" is a "simple, feel-good" track, wherein Joseph encourages the listener to "push on through". [41] [42] "At the Risk of Feeling Dumb" presents the duo at "their heaviest" on the album, with an "earwormy chorus" and "vivid repetition". [39] The album closes with "Paladin Strait", a track containing whirring synths that are partnered with "beautiful guitar chords", which are described as feeling like a "voyage, a grand adventure in which its soft plucking and gentle strums usher you forward on a glorious but daunting journey". [39]

Tour

A concert tour in support of the album, the Clancy World Tour, was announced alongside the release of "Next Semester". The tour is set to consist of over 70 shows spanning four continents, beginning at Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado on August 15, 2024, and concluding at The O2 Arena in London on May 14, 2025. [43] Five small-scale concerts collectively titled "An Evening with Twenty One Pilots" were held prior to the tour, with the first taking place at the Bowery Ballroom in New York City on May 2, 2024, [44] the second at the Metropol in Berlin on May 7, [44] the third at the Electric Ballroom in London on May 9, [44] and the fourth at the Lunario del Auditorio Nacional in Mexico City on May 14. [45] [46] The final show of the small-scale series of performances was held at the Newport Music Hall in the band's hometown of Columbus, Ohio on May 24, to coincide with the album's release. [47] On July 8, it was announced that the "Fan Premier Exhibit", a touring exhibit filled with props and memorabilia from past album cycles, would be taken with them to concerts during the US and Canada leg of the Clancy World Tour. [48] On August 9, it was announced that Balu Brigada would be the opening act for the US leg of the Clancy World Tour. [49] The setlist of the tour thus far consists of over 30 songs. [50]

Clancy received positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized score out of 100 to ratings from mainstream publications, the album received a weighted mean score of 78 based on five reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews". [52] The review aggregator site AnyDecentMusic? compiled nine reviews and gave Clancy an average of 7.7 out of 10, based on their assessment of the critical consensus. [51]

Neil Z. Yeung of AllMusic and Tom Carr of The Arts Desk commended Twenty One Pilots for creating "reliably catchy" and "intriguing" songs that not only "captured the imagination of a legion of fans", but can also grab the attention of listeners who are unaware of their "fascinating narrative". [40] [53] Kiana Doyle of the Associated Press called Clancy an "energizing" and "triumphant" conclusion to the band's arc that is filled with vim, vigor, and nostalgia. [58] Vicky Greer, writing for Classic Rock , considered the album to be "a very strong outing" for the band, but felt that "they falter where they fall back into old habits instead of embracing the album's more innovative moments". [54]

Ali Shutler of Dork called Clancy "a gorgeous, intricate record that cycles through tender, heartfelt moments, fiery rage, flexing swagger and frustrated self-destruction". [42] Manus Hopkins of Kerrang! described the album as "creative, colorful and endlessly charismatic". [41] Jon Dolan of Rolling Stone reviewed the album positively, saying it showed the band's "midlife growth," praising Clancy for not feeling scattered in its juggling of many genres and sounds. [34]

Commercial performance

Clancy marked Twenty One Pilots' fourth consecutive top three album on the Billboard 200, debuting at number three with 143,000 album-equivalent units. Registering the biggest sales week for any rock album in 2024, in either equivalent album units or traditional album sales, Clancy opened with 38.64 million on-demand official streams and 113,000 pure album copies.

[62] The album also debuted at number three on the Canadian Albums Chart, making it their fourth top five album in the country. [63]
