TOP fans have a theory, and it just might blow your mind
Twenty One Pilots fans are on high alert after a website link was found hidden within a gif on the TOP website. What they found immediately initiated a new round of theories and sparking a new hope inside the Clique.
Could the hiatus soon be over?

If you recall Josh Dun's speech from the 2017 APMAs, he apologized to fans for Tyler's inability to be there to accept their Most Dedicated Fanbase award.
“Tyler wishes he could be here, but he’s actually severing ties with dema.”
Of course, fans jumped on this hint immediately.
The word “Dema,” according to Wikipedia, could mean “tower of silence,” which fans are thinking links back to their tweets from the Twenty One Pilots account that showed an eye closing—with the final Tweet reading “and now I just sit in silence.”

While things have been pretty quiet on the TOP front for the past nine months, fans began picking up on something suspicious when people began noticing TOP's Blurryface album being sold with the album art inserted upside down.
i’m in a record store and just found a blurryface cd (sealed which means it’s brand new) and its cover is BLURRYFACE UPSIDE WHAT pic.twitter.com/0C49wKNX5s

Coincidentally enough, someone noticed a gif on the TOP website was replaced, with the new one showing a website link at the end.
this isn’t really a theory, more of a find. someone messaged me a screen cap of the vessel gif on the tøp show and i didn’t really believe them so i checked myself. there is a code that appears in the end of it, the tv static at the end of car radio. pic.twitter.com/NaBFvBF0Cn

Once slowed down the gif reveals dmaorg.info, a website which sends you to an error code with a very cryptic message and violation code.
so i typed in https://t.co/GuJcG4WJg1 and couldn’t put out whatever else the link has. THIS IS WHAT CAME UP. I DON’t KNOW HOW TO REACT pic.twitter.com/DIp9Sf4XjG

The message contains capitalized letters that end up spelling “EAST IS UP.”
And if you add the violation code to the end of the link…
OMFG so if you add the violation code between the full link seen in the gif it takes you here. WHAT IN THE… https://t.co/342BLda86m pic.twitter.com/DUqOgOHnhJ

The first image looks VERY familiar to the “Tower of Silence”.

Fans were quick to find the missing part of TOP's map, which contained a compass with the “E” crossed just like in TOP's last tweet.
the 'e' on the compass is crossed like the 'e's in their last tweet pic.twitter.com/JNP9zTD32q

If you research the “Tower of Silence” you'll find that it is a circular, raised structure where dead bodies were left to be exposed to vultures. And what did fans notice in the middle of this “grave”? An image that looks exactly like Blurryface with the words correlating to the album's tracks.
also just realized this picture is exactly like the blurryface cover pic.twitter.com/nK98fmOGat

Keeping in mind that “EAST IS UP” and “the compass lies”…
and the whole “EAST IS UP” thing makes sense because on the website it says “the compAss lies” and on clancys journal we see “west is blocked” on the right side of the page so west would be down and with this “map” … necropolis is blocked? idk pic.twitter.com/GfdxONjyWS

Turn the Blurryface image sideways so that east is up, correlate the songs to their track numbers, then you'll end up with the violation code.

And all those dates that are paired with the images on the “Dema” site?
The first date is the Vessel release date. 988 MOON 12 01 is Tyler's Birthday and 988 06 MOON 18 is Josh's birthday. They released Regional at Best on July 8th 2011. Self titled release on December 9, 2009 @top__today @twentyonepilots https://t.co/6tekUx970s

Fans then remembered that the first eye lyric TOP posted was from “Polarize” and contained the lyrics “You'll have to come find me.”

Could the track also double as a possible important date in the TOP timeline?
the first eye lyric was polarize. “domingo en fuego” = sunday on fire. sunday is tomorrow. don’t hold me to this, but i think the eye opens tomorrow. pic.twitter.com/5U41POSuZP

Adding to the suspicion about the eye possibly re-opening tomorrow:
to add to the theory about the eye opening or something happening tomorrow, the letter from “Clancy” says “tomorrow's desires would be accomplished with the same efficiency” pic.twitter.com/2tSGWmuQV7

It was also noted that TOP's label, Warner/Chapell, switched their home page track to an instrumental version of “Stressed Out.”
the Warner/Chappelle website (tøp's label) has changed their front page feature song to an instrumental of Stressed Out, at around midnight. Possibly promoting a possible return later today? pic.twitter.com/F1KrhjoEhs

Is there a chance we could be getting some Twenty One Pilots news tomorrow? We're waiting on the edge of our seats to find out.
What do you think is going on with TOP? Let us hear those theories in the comments below!
