Along with smashing a major world record, twenty one pilots are currently working on their follow up to Trench. In May, Joseph told Zane Lowe that the duo has pushed up their album plans amid the coronavirus pandemic.

“I’m writing a record right now,” Joseph said at the time. “I’m not sure when it’ll be released. But it’s definitely going to be sooner than we were planning on releasing a record.”

The frontman also opened up to Alternative Press this summer on the future of live shows and what to expect from the band next.

“I’m not really sure which direction we’re gonna go yet,” he said. “There are two very different records, in my opinion, to be written. One being right now and the other one being after that. I don’t know which one I’m going to do first. I have an idea of what I think is next, sonically. It’s just whether or not it’s too big of a risk, I guess.”
