"Hello, world of YouTube, and welcome back to another album reaction. Twenty One Pilots is back after an incredibly long and torturous hiatus. Let's get right into it."

I pulled up the album on Spotify. "Alright. The first song is Jumpsuit. There's a music video, so we're gonna watch that. Now, I do know a little bit. I know about Dema and I've seen the cryptic tweets despite not hearing the music."

I played the song and when it finished, I let out a breath. "Wow. Now that is how you start an album. This is gonna be good. Next up is Levitate. And some of you guys told me to play the end of Jumpsuit and go straight into Levitate. So that's what we're gonna do."

The second song played right away. "I love that transition! You guys really know what you're talking about. Ooh, all rap. This is awesome. This might be my favorite so far, but we still have another 12 songs to go."

I played the third song, Morph, and shrugged. "It's good, but it's not my favorite. Next up, we have My Blood. Ooh, this song is pretty good, too. Song five is called Chlorine. Don't drink chlorine, kids. It's bad for you."

The song finished and I nodded. "Another favorite. Tik Tok, don't ruin this song. Next up is Smithereens."

As the song played, I smiled. "This is definitely about his wife. That's so cute! Song seven is Neon Gravestones. That sounds kind of depressing."

I played the song and found myself in awe and repeated the final lyrics. ""Find your grandparents or someone of age. Pay some respects for the path that they paved. To life they were dedicated, now that should be celebrated." Wow. So much power in a few sentences. This one I think is my all time favorite TOP song, and that says something, 'cause you guys know how much I love Holding Onto You and Ode to Sleep."

I took a moment to breathe. "Okay, that was powerful. Song eight is The Hype. Let's see if it lives up to the hype, pun intended."

Once the song finished, I nodded. "Definitely lived up to the hype. The next song is Nico and the Niners. "East is up." Hmm. Interesting. I like this song, too. So many new songs to love! Don't ruin them, please. Song ten is called Cut My Lip."

The song ended and I shrugged. "It's good, not one of my favorites, but it's good. Every song so far has been good. Next up, we've got Bandito. Ooh, starting slow. I hope this isn't emotional. Okay, not too bad. Pretty good."

I cleared my throat. "Sorry, guys. Pet Cheetah is song number 12. I'd love a pet cheetah of my own, even though they're dangerous. What the heck is going on in this song? It's like Ode to Sleep, but ten times more insane. Weird and chaotic as that was, it's good. Next up is Legend."

I played the song. ""You're a legend in my own mind." That's sweet. Some of you guys tweeted me that he's talking about his grandfather, which is really cool. I think it's really cool how those we love can inspire such powerful, amazing songs. Alright, we're onto the final song. This one is called Leave The City. Now, to me, it sounds like it's gonna be sad. And it is. Piano ballad. Much like what Panic! did with Dying in LA. The song sounds sad, with a hint of optimism."

The song ended and I smiled. "Well, that was certainly worth the wait. Yellow is the new red. Goodbye Blurryface, hello Trench. I'm curious; what were your favorite songs? Leave a comment. Mine was definitely Neon Gravestones. I'm probably gonna listen to that song on repeat for the next week. What am I talking about? I'm gonna be listening to Trench on repeat for at least the next week.

"Alright guys, that wraps up this video. You know the drill. Like if you liked, leave a comment telling me your favorite Trench song. If you enjoyed, I'll be back next week with more cringe-worthy content."

I turned off my camera and immediately turned on Neon Gravestones.
