Dema is a city he created within the world of Trench, it represents his depression and nico and the niners are his insecurities. nico is the real name for blurryface from the last album. This whole song is made as a coded message for the rebles of dema to escape the city, east is up and i'm higher when i'm lower is a code to tell the banditos (the rebles) they are are escaping underground, but they want nico and the bishops to think they are going to fly out so they say i'm so high. Also east is a direction he always has correlated with overcoming depression and escaping, likely because he's a Christian and we are told that Christ will come from the east. *Edit something else others pointed out that I forgot to mention is that he likes to use the night to represent depression and morning to represent escaping that depressing so the east refers also refers to the sun rising in the east.
Oh do you honestly? I honestly believe that you honestly enjoy these reactions so much. However I think there might be some people doubting your honesty, eventhough you said honestly, which honestly in my opinion doesn't make sense, but honestly I can't remember what my point was.
Quick simple explanation: nico and the niners are a group of bishops that symbolize insecurities. Nico is Tyler’s bishop and symbolizes his insecurities he has for his music and what he creates (also symbolized as the black paint on his neck and hands) this song is about a group of people called the Banditos escaping the bishops (also I believe dema is the name of the place they are at). (Ps clikkies feel free to correct me in the comments)
To explain Nico and the Niners, you have to go back to Blurryface and then Vessel. In a short, extremely short, blurryface is red and and and he's all Tyler's insecurities. When Tylery wears black paint across his neck and hands it was a show of Blurryface trying to stop and control his creativity. The best way to look at all of Twenty One Pilots music is, Tyler has basically written a story, connecting things together with each album if you're quick enough to catch the pieces and put them all together. Tyler always creates these hunts for his fans to dig for and to find more answers or pieces of the story, for example to explain Demo, Nico and the Niners, the significance of yellow. Along with the realization that East is Up is actually the Bandito's way of telling Tyler the sun has risen in the sky, it's a new day.
The gibberish mumbling will play a message when reversed! Edit: Nico and the Niners represent all of Tyler insecurities. Dema represents depression. Tyler is trying to escape Dema while Nico is trying to stop him from succeeding.
@@sasquatchlunchbox we are banditos we must leave and dema and head true east we denounce vialism I believe that's what it says I reversed it a while back and I think that's what it says
@LBDesmeauxhe put out one for Overcompensate, but he didn’t touch SAI because for a while his t0p videos were getting blocked (which is weird because I’ve always been able to see them).
@@Crixtoll Addict With a Pen is such a great song about struggling with faith and being a good Christian while also battling depression and suicidal thoughts.
@@Crixtoll I agree. Addict with a Pen just sounds awful, the vocals are terrible. And it's full of Christian references, stuff he doesn't really care for I'd love to see a reaction to Guns For Hands too
This is my favorite song off the album. I wrote my final essay for my songwriting class in college about it. The level of detail in this song and the clues they left behind for it are insane. In the song, the character is main character is named Clancy, who lives in the city of Dema (not demons, which is a common misunderstanding), which is designed to represent a city similar to the one in George Orwell’s 1984. One of the big lines that alludes to this is “Save your razor blades now, not yet” which is a reference to the book where razor blades were so scarce because everyone was using them to commit suicide. In the song, it means you won’t need your razor blades because you won’t need to commit suicide because you’re leaving the city of Dema. Nico is often understood to be the same person as Blurryface, who represents his anxiety. The Niners, who Nico leads, are his other insecurities. Together, they are the Bishops, and their goal is to imprison everyone within the city of Dema, the same way your insecurities imprison you in your depression. A lot of the song is understood to be sung by the Banditos (the rebels who wear the yellow tape) and are coded messages for how to escape the city of Dema. The Banditos are the people who managed to escape Dema and escape depression, but like they said “We’ll win but not everyone will get out”. A lot of people will beat their depression, but there will always be those we’ll lose to it. That is a summary of the key points. The truth is that every line in this song can be analyzed and interpreted, and there is lore even beyond this song.
The lyrics are DEEP to all of TØP songs. Trench is an album that needs to be listened from start to finish. Josh and Tyler do the lot. Genre bending. I only discovered them this year and I relate to everything they do. They have been my quarantine affair, and now I'm a 47yr old Nanny who is a fan for life.
Brosephin / PT3MQ1 although that May be true I try to recommend songs he likes and for this specific one the bride where josh goes ham is the part of focused on him to like
The reversed parts of the song [Intro] Msilaiv ecnuoned ew -we denounce vialism Tsae eurt daeh dna amed evael lliw uoy -you will leave dema and head true east Sotidnab era ew -we are banditos [Outro] Sotidnab era ew -we are banditos
Please just watch the videos in order first is Heavydirtysoul then it is Jumpsuit third is Nico and The Niners then its Levitate please watch them and also listen more to the lyrics as you do you will find more meanings and messages behind them
Nico, Andre, Lisden, Keons, Reisdro, Sacarver, Nills, Vetomo, and Listo are the 9 bishops. their names come from letters off different lyrics from blurryface songs. For example. Keons comes from cho keons mo (Choke On smoke) from heavy dirty soul and sacarver comes from She sacarver (Shes a Carver) from tear in my heart
Honestly, 21 pilots have great music and their stories are really interesting, but you don’t need to know everything about the lore if you don’t want to , the music speaks for itself really. It’s a deep dive if you wanna learn it all.
Nico and the niners are 9 bishops in a city called Dema in the Trench album, pretty much the whole album is about people trying to escape Dema while the bishops hunt them down. correct me if I am wrong
That’s correct but the city DEMA also stands for Doubt, Expectation, Materialism and Anxiety, it’s sort of saying that he shouldn’t be controlled by objects, and others judging him causing mental instability
who would thought this would be his last Twenty One Pilots reaction, I was waiting for more, I suscribed just for this reactions, I've been waiting 2 months for another one, but I don't see antything coming :(
When you guys gonna realize he here for the music, the vibe. Dema been explain to him 50x already, if he would care as much for the meaning and stuff he would have known and done the trilogy in order. Probably you've seen all the top reactions he had done, so after 5 u should know he only here for the music and it isn't a problem at all (I like his reactions big time)
Just stumbled upon your channel. Hard core twenty one pilots fan here. LOVED this video. You made me laugh and you appreciate their music, even if you understand their message and the story, you get how amazing their music is. *subscribed!*
Nico is one of the nine bishops also known as blurry face, they represent Tyler's nine isucurities and dema is the town they are trying to escape dema represents his depression
@@MYKEYOFFLINE ✊🏼 I've been a fan since Self Titled.....and I personally love every single album and song they've put out since. Even Regional at Best, which is pre-Josh but OMG that album is 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 😁
That songs sounds like it has so many different layers and textures. Even a while since I listened to 21 pilots. Looking forward to discovering this song more.
I just randomly looked up a reaction video to see what someone’s first thoughts are. But the thing is you’re sharp, ive never seen you before but the story you’re talking about is deep and goes back all the way to their first single. There’s a lot of hidden references to dema in earlier videos
Nico is one of the nine bishops, represented by the people in the red robes. They are essentially the leaders of the city "Dema" which is the city shown in the video. Dema is a place where creativity is basically forbidden, and everything is controlled by these bishops. It's a dark place that is meant to keep those who are there down. And the people in the camo/yellow are known as banditos, who are trying to rescue people from this dark city and basically free the minds of those there. "When bishops come together, they know Dema cant control us" is what the chorus says, meaning the bishops cannot keep us locked here in Dema, they will not keep us down, we will break free
Nico and the niners are the bishops, represented by the 9 circles on the 'blurryface' album cover. Nico is the main one, he goes by Nicolas Bourbaki or 'blurryface'. The niners are all referenced by name in clippings of lyrics from that album. Dema is the city its set in, where Tyler is trapped and is trying to get out. The lyric "we'll win but not everyone will get out" is visualised in 'heathens' when they start a concert leading to a prison breakout where everyone escapes except Tyler who's still trapped. Its all written like a story as a metaphor for Tylers struggle being trapped in his head with his depression and axieties and his fight to break free of it
This is the song trio in order : Jumpsuit, Nico and the Niners, and Levitate. Heavydirtysoul comes before jumpsuit, but I dont know if it's part of the 3 song story
Nico is the blurry face from the last album, and his full name is Nicolas Bourbaki(in the song Morph, Tyler explains who he is). He is Tyler’s insecurities and depression. Nico and the Niners are the bishops in the city of Dema. By the way, the reverse intro is actually saying stuffs like “We are banditos”. You can find some videos explaining what they are saying in intro.
honestly suprised he hasn't checked out that much from their older stuff examples would be - trapdoor - a car a torch a death - the pantaloon - kitchen sink - slowtown
because of reactors like you i decided to start making reaction videos! ive gained 40 subs in the last 6 days, i also do twenty one pilots reactions! love you layedbak!
this the first time im experiencing a song for the first time with you dude, thats actually wierd thinkin about how ive been watchin for a couple years now.
Pretty sure people have been requesting the trilogy for quite some time and just got lost in the comments, you got your self looking like crazy 😂 Great reaction as always
I’d really love to see you react to migraine and/or truce. Also in every twenty one pilots song there are two songs. The one you hear when you are in a good mood which is generally the music and the one you hear when you aren’t in a great mindset which would be the lyrics
There ain’t no rules out here! react in whatever order you want!! I just appreciate the fact that you just genuinely like the music even if you don’t know the whole backstory
I work 2nd shift and get off at 2am. Always come home and watch your videos before I sleep. And I love the be true be you and health is wealth mottos. #firesquad
yeah nico is like the main bad guy essentially and the niners are his fellow bishops. they control dema, the bad place. and this song and the video is tyler trying to escape and josh and the banditos rescuing him to take him to trench, the good place.
Tyler, the singer has created the universe where Nico and his henchman (the Niners) rule and you have the "raiders" (those in yellow) that free people from Nico and the Niners.
LMAO he thought it was demons dont control us and that is amazing because he started talking about how amazing that line was when it doesnt even exist love it but like that was so funny
the order for the storyline is heavydirtysoul, jumpsuit, nico and the niners, levitate. nico and the niners, aka the bishops (the guys in the red cloaks), are the leaders of this city called dema, and they practice a religion called vialism. the goal of vialism is basically to commit suicide and impact as many people as possible with that act. each of the bishops represent certain insecurities, and the people in the city have assigned bishops based off of what theyre most insecure about. nico is tyler's bishop. the people in the green and yellow are banditos. they live in trench, which is the area outside of the city. yellow is the color of the rebellion against dema because the bishops cannot see the color yellow. the storyline follows tyler as he repeatedly tries to escape dema with the help of the banditos, but ultimately gets caught and taken back by nico each time.
The facility is controlled by Nico and The Nine, a group that appears to be the Trench-era counterpart to the tormenting character of Blurryface. They represent the thoughts and inner-voice that fight to keep frontman Tyler Joseph trapped in his depression. On the flip side, we have the Banditos.
Basically Nico makes Tyler fight his mental battles, which is why I named my cat Nico, because I was in a dark time and wanted something to make me hang on and fight. So I adopted a kitten and named him Nico.
the music videos go in order of jumpsuit, nico and the niners, and levitate, they show very many references and meaning through visual direction and through the song being sang, the trench album is a concept album and the trench/dema world that it mainly shows is created by tyler, also this album connects their blurryface and vecal album, making references and expanding meaning from "car radio", "heavydirtysoul", "ride", "stressed out", and other previous videos. he isn't saying demons don't control us, he says "dema don't control us", Dema is the "city" (or place) you see in the start of the video, representing insecurities, depression, anxiety, fears, for tyler, but is also representative for everyone's inner demons. now something to know and understand is that TØP had been giving hints and planning this album and making a story for all of this for a while, during there blurryface album, hints in awards, and twitter, even making very cryptic website/documents and hints for titles of songs and the album, and characters, hence all the references and callbacks to other songs and albums a big thing that people find, and also people don't see, are 2 big things, one being nico and the niners, although it is a title, in these song we get told that nico, is blurryface, and blurryface is his alter ego, or rather is inner self (his inner demons) given an identity, usually we see this by tyler having all black hands and neck, sometimes red eyes and a deep voice, in jumpsuit when nico comes to him and puts black on his neck he follows him, becoming obedient, showing him under his control, the bishops are nico and the niners, nico(being a bishop or leader of them) and the nine other bishops, now I could talk all day about where the name nico comes from and all the hidden and cryptic symbolism but really there are videos for that, that explain better then I could. now something others don't find often is these 3 videos message or, at least the symbolic cycle that happens, tyler makes it apparent that his best music, to him, comes from when he is at his lowest, or in some kind of deep pain, shown and sang about in many songs, and even in this chorine song, witch gives more perspective and support into these videos refered cycle, bc he feels he makes better music when in that low place, he sometimes might go there semi intentionally, but he also loves making music and has made that clear very much, so him being in dema, with nico, suffering, helps him makes music, and making this music helps him feel better, allowing him to escape dema, while also trying to not feel this way in general, but, with levitate being the ending where nico comes at night taking him back to dema, also shows that cycle, that he feels he need to go back in oder to make good music, and nico knows this, so its this almost never ending cycle, of needing to make good music to not hurt, but needing to hurt in order to make good music. iv already made this way too long, and im sure there are things I didn't get time to mention, not like youll read all this, but im sure others will tell you, eventually if anything, I recommend watching a video covering all this really, you've seen most videos and songs by them to not be spoiled or anything and it would help your perspective of thing, but that's just a suggeston
Nico and the niners are based on a group of mathematicians led by Nicolas Bourbaki. They focused alot on the field of Topoplogy (I believe). It's pretty interesting if not super dry but for sure a super obscure reference. Their song "Morph" explains a lot.
on line it says " “Nico and the Niners” is basically a dark story about a fictional character named Clancy who lives in a horrible walled city called Dema."
OKAY THIS IS THE SPARKNOTES VERSION OF THE STORY: Tyler and Josh have created an entire world within their music. That world is called Trench. Beyond Trench there is a city called Dema (not demons, Dema) ruled by nine Bishops, the guys in red hoods. Dema essentially represents depression. People are trapped in Dema as they are trapped in their depression. Now, standing against Dema are the Banditos, the rebels with torches who broke Tyler out of Dema. They cover themselves in yellow tape and yellow scarves and stuff because the Bishops cannot see yellow. The yellow flowers Tyler was holding at the start of the video when he was still in Dema represent his escape attempts. The coolest thing in my opinion is that the story in the videos has effected the culture of the fanbase, the Clique. When we go to shows, we all dress as Banditos and bring rolls of yellow tape and tape each other up. It is sort of a symbol of love and protection, as weird as it may be. The Clique has issues like any fanbase, but generally speaking I have never met a kinder more supportive group of people. Anyway, so that is the most basic version of the story! There is actually so much more I could get into but I am not gonna inflict that on you lol. Also for the record, if you want to watch the videos in ORDER it goes: Heavydirtysoul, Heathens (ignore the Suicide Squad clips), Jumpsuit, Nico and the Niners, then Levitate. Also I love your videos so much every time I get a notification I get so excited!

Dema is a city he created within the world of Trench, it represents his depression and nico and the niners are his insecurities. nico is the real name for blurryface from the last album. This whole song is made as a coded message for the rebles of dema to escape the city, east is up and i'm higher when i'm lower is a code to tell the banditos (the rebles) they are are escaping underground, but they want nico and the bishops to think they are going to fly out so they say i'm so high.

*Edit something else others pointed out that I forgot to mention is that he likes to use the night to represent depression and morning to represent escaping that depressing so the east refers also refers to the sun rising in the east.
Also Tyler's lyrics on depression in other songs have related it to the night, so East is up could also be the sun rising, and for him, freedom
@@RobTonge80 very true
Damn, nigga got the whole origin story, props to u dawg

KOD sucks
Quick simple explanation: nico and the niners are a group of bishops that symbolize insecurities. Nico is Tyler’s bishop and symbolizes his insecurities he has for his music and what he creates (also symbolized as the black paint on his neck and hands) this song is about a group of people called the Banditos escaping the bishops (also I believe dema is the name of the place they are at). (Ps clikkies feel free to correct me in the comments)
no that's pretty much spot on lol
"Who is Nico and the Niners?"
How much time you got lmao
I was thinking the same ahaha lol
To explain Nico and the Niners, you have to go back to Blurryface and then Vessel.
In a short, extremely short, blurryface is red and and and he's all Tyler's insecurities. When Tylery wears black paint across his neck and hands it was a show of Blurryface trying to stop and control his creativity.
The best way to look at all of Twenty One Pilots music is, Tyler has basically written a story, connecting things together with each album if you're quick enough to catch the pieces and put them all together. Tyler always creates these hunts for his fans to dig for and to find more answers or pieces of the story, for example to explain Demo, Nico and the Niners, the significance of yellow. Along with the realization that East is Up is actually the Bandito's way of telling Tyler the sun has risen in the sky, it's a new day.
Break out the powerpoint!
The gibberish mumbling will play a message when reversed!
Edit: Nico and the Niners represent all of Tyler insecurities. Dema represents depression. Tyler is trying to escape Dema while Nico is trying to stop him from succeeding.

FINALLY!!!! I was searching for this video and I was surprised you havent reacted to it. :3
Nico is one of the nine bishops, represented by the people in the red robes. They are essentially the leaders of the city "Dema" which is the city shown in the video. Dema is a place where creativity is basically forbidden, and everything is controlled by these bishops. It's a dark place that is meant to keep those who are there down. And the people in the camo/yellow are known as banditos, who are trying to rescue people from this dark city and basically free the minds of those there. "When bishops come together, they know Dema cant control us" is what the chorus says, meaning the bishops cannot keep us locked here in Dema, they will not keep us down, we will break free
The order is heavy dirty soul-jumpsuit-nico and the niners- levitate.
Nico and the niners are the bishops, represented by the 9 circles on the 'blurryface' album cover. Nico is the main one, he goes by Nicolas Bourbaki or 'blurryface'. The niners are all referenced by name in clippings of lyrics from that album. Dema is the city its set in, where Tyler is trapped and is trying to get out. The lyric "we'll win but not everyone will get out" is visualised in 'heathens' when they start a concert leading to a prison breakout where everyone escapes except Tyler who's still trapped. Its all written like a story as a metaphor for Tylers struggle being trapped in his head with his depression and axieties and his fight to break free of it
Little fact about "Nico and the ninners" the music video to this song was filmed in Kiev, Ukraine the country where I was born
To understand the story LayedBak, heavydirtysoul is first, then jumpsuit, nico and the niners, and then levitate
This is the song trio in order : Jumpsuit, Nico and the Niners, and Levitate. Heavydirtysoul comes before jumpsuit, but I dont know if it's part of the 3 song story
I love how you point out things in the song others wouldn't normally hear ❤️
My favorite thing about this song is how the zip it backwards and he raps over it. Creatively brilliant!
Nico is the blurry face from the last album, and his full name is Nicolas Bourbaki(in the song Morph, Tyler explains who he is). He is Tyler’s insecurities and depression. Nico and the Niners are the bishops in the city of Dema. By the way, the reverse intro is actually saying stuffs like “We are banditos”. You can find some videos explaining what they are saying in intro.
I been waiting so long for this one, definetly one of my favourites by twenty one pilots
honestly suprised he hasn't checked out that much from their older stuff
examples would be
- trapdoor
- a car a torch a death
- the pantaloon
- kitchen sink
- slowtown
because of reactors like you i decided to start making reaction videos! ive gained 40 subs in the last 6 days, i also do twenty one pilots reactions! love you layedbak!
this the first time im experiencing a song for the first time with you dude, thats actually wierd thinkin about how ive been watchin for a couple years now.
That was a great reaction! Your Fairly Local reaction was also great. Thank you. 💛
You seemed to really like this song and I’m happy about that cause I love this song!
Yes, we got you out here looking crazy.
You have, hands down, the best stank face in the game.
That bass line gets me every time.
It’s always so fun to see you vibing 🖤
"what was that, that just floated across my eardrums," best description....love this.
Pretty sure people have been requesting the trilogy for quite some time and just got lost in the comments, you got your self looking like crazy 😂 Great reaction as always
I’d really love to see you react to migraine and/or truce. Also in every twenty one pilots song there are two songs. The one you hear when you are in a good mood which is generally the music and the one you hear when you aren’t in a great mindset which would be the lyrics
Love your TOP reactions bro you the best reaction channel out there
What I like about these guys is the universe they create through their songs
Yes! You react to so many amazing songs that other people don't even touch!
MORE REACTIONS!!! THERE’S SO MUCH NEW TØP
Layed back has the most chill vibe on TH-cam
There ain’t no rules out here! react in whatever order you want!! I just appreciate the fact that you just genuinely like the music even if you don’t know the whole backstory
The clique so happy when you ask questions about the meaning of these songs......hahahahaha we just love a good chance to talk about TØP!! 😁✊🏼
Was just waiting for your reaction Josh's drums!
You're one of my fav reactors to songs!
I work 2nd shift and get off at 2am. Always come home and watch your videos before I sleep. And I love the be true be you and health is wealth mottos. #firesquad
Nico and the niners are a group of people that represent a persons insecurities and nico is the head of that grouo
yeah nico is like the main bad guy essentially and the niners are his fellow bishops. they control dema, the bad place. and this song and the video is tyler trying to escape and josh and the banditos rescuing him to take him to trench, the good place.
Even if the lyrics arent "Demons don't control us," it still fits so well.
Y'all got me out here looking crazy hahaha
This is a crazy nice song beats unreal ! Great reaction as usual layedbakkk
Everything they drop is amazing they can't make a bad song
Would’ve loved to see your reaction to their last record
You're the best reaction TH-camr I've ever seen!!!
Tyler, the singer has created the universe where Nico and his henchman (the Niners) rule and you have the "raiders" (those in yellow) that free people from Nico and the Niners.
LMAO he thought it was demons dont control us and that is amazing because he started talking about how amazing that line was when it doesnt even exist love it but like that was so funny
the order for the storyline is heavydirtysoul, jumpsuit, nico and the niners, levitate. nico and the niners, aka the bishops (the guys in the red cloaks), are the leaders of this city called dema, and they practice a religion called vialism. the goal of vialism is basically to commit suicide and impact as many people as possible with that act. each of the bishops represent certain insecurities, and the people in the city have assigned bishops based off of what theyre most insecure about. nico is tyler's bishop.
the people in the green and yellow are banditos. they live in trench, which is the area outside of the city. yellow is the color of the rebellion against dema because the bishops cannot see the color yellow. the storyline follows tyler as he repeatedly tries to escape dema with the help of the banditos, but ultimately gets caught and taken back by nico each time.
The facility is controlled by Nico and The Nine, a group that appears to be the Trench-era counterpart to the tormenting character of Blurryface. They represent the thoughts and inner-voice that fight to keep frontman Tyler Joseph trapped in his depression. On the flip side, we have the Banditos.
Basically Nico makes Tyler fight his mental battles, which is why I named my cat Nico, because I was in a dark time and wanted something to make me hang on and fight. So I adopted a kitten and named him Nico.
the music videos go in order of jumpsuit, nico and the niners, and levitate, they show very many references and meaning through visual direction and through the song being sang, the trench album is a concept album and the trench/dema world that it mainly shows is created by tyler, also this album connects their blurryface and vecal album, making references and expanding meaning from "car radio", "heavydirtysoul", "ride", "stressed out", and other previous videos.
he isn't saying demons don't control us, he says "dema don't control us", Dema is the "city" (or place) you see in the start of the video, representing insecurities, depression, anxiety, fears, for tyler, but is also representative for everyone's inner demons.
now something to know and understand is that TØP had been giving hints and planning this album and making a story for all of this for a while, during there blurryface album, hints in awards, and twitter, even making very cryptic website/documents and hints for titles of songs and the album, and characters, hence all the references and callbacks to other songs and albums
a big thing that people find, and also people don't see, are 2 big things, one being nico and the niners, although it is a title, in these song we get told that nico, is blurryface, and blurryface is his alter ego, or rather is inner self (his inner demons) given an identity, usually we see this by tyler having all black hands and neck, sometimes red eyes and a deep voice, in jumpsuit when nico comes to him and puts black on his neck he follows him, becoming obedient, showing him under his control, the bishops are nico and the niners, nico(being a bishop or leader of them) and the nine other bishops, now I could talk all day about where the name nico comes from and all the hidden and cryptic symbolism but really there are videos for that, that explain better then I could.
now something others don't find often is these 3 videos message or, at least the symbolic cycle that happens, tyler makes it apparent that his best music, to him, comes from when he is at his lowest, or in some kind of deep pain, shown and sang about in many songs, and even in this chorine song, witch gives more perspective and support into these videos refered cycle, bc he feels he makes better music when in that low place, he sometimes might go there semi intentionally, but he also loves making music and has made that clear very much, so him being in dema, with nico, suffering, helps him makes music, and making this music helps him feel better, allowing him to escape dema, while also trying to not feel this way in general, but, with levitate being the ending where nico comes at night taking him back to dema, also shows that cycle, that he feels he need to go back in oder to make good music, and nico knows this, so its this almost never ending cycle, of needing to make good music to not hurt, but needing to hurt in order to make good music.
iv already made this way too long, and im sure there are things I didn't get time to mention, not like youll read all this, but im sure others will tell you, eventually if anything, I recommend watching a video covering all this really, you've seen most videos and songs by them to not be spoiled or anything and it would help your perspective of thing, but that's just a suggeston
Wooh. Did you ever see the collaboration of TOP with the band Mutemath? They filmed a studio sesh of 5 TOP songs that is awesome al the way.
I wish he still did more twenty pilots reactions, I really wanted to see him react to “Screen”
Nico and the niners are based on a group of mathematicians led by Nicolas Bourbaki. They focused alot on the field of Topoplogy (I believe). It's pretty interesting if not super dry but for sure a super obscure reference. Their song "Morph" explains a lot.
on line it says " “Nico and the Niners” is basically a dark story about a fictional character named Clancy who lives in a horrible walled city called Dema."
OKAY THIS IS THE SPARKNOTES VERSION OF THE STORY: Tyler and Josh have created an entire world within their music. That world is called Trench. Beyond Trench there is a city called Dema (not demons, Dema) ruled by nine Bishops, the guys in red hoods. Dema essentially represents depression. People are trapped in Dema as they are trapped in their depression. Now, standing against Dema are the Banditos, the rebels with torches who broke Tyler out of Dema. They cover themselves in yellow tape and yellow scarves and stuff because the Bishops cannot see yellow. The yellow flowers Tyler was holding at the start of the video when he was still in Dema represent his escape attempts. The coolest thing in my opinion is that the story in the videos has effected the culture of the fanbase, the Clique. When we go to shows, we all dress as Banditos and bring rolls of yellow tape and tape each other up. It is sort of a symbol of love and protection, as weird as it may be. The Clique has issues like any fanbase, but generally speaking I have never met a kinder more supportive group of people. Anyway, so that is the most basic version of the story! There is actually so much more I could get into but I am not gonna inflict that on you lol. Also for the record, if you want to watch the videos in ORDER it goes: Heavydirtysoul, Heathens (ignore the Suicide Squad clips), Jumpsuit, Nico and the Niners, then Levitate. Also I love your videos so much every time I get a notification I get so excited!
