American alt-pop duo Twenty One Pilots completed their third trek to New
Zealand last month selling out their only Auckland show.
“Literally exuding passion, the amount of hard work these two have put into
building their live show between their mind-blowing performance at the
Powerstation last year, to the arena-worthy spectacle it is now, did not
go a-miss, amazing everyone from the most die-hard of fans, to the bands
newest fans” http://www.libel.nz/
The band also released their new single last week, Ride, a
follow up to the worldwide smash Stressed Out which has reached #6 on
the Heatseekers chart, while Stressed Out retains a top 10 spot, coming in at #9 on the NZ Top 40.
The tracks are lifted from the 2015, NZ #6, ARIA #11 and US Billboard Top 200
#1 album, Blurryface (out now through Warner Music New Zealand).
Twenty One Pilots – who only just returned home from show stopping performances
at Lolla South America in Brazil, Chile, and Argentina – have received a
number of major awards nominations in recent weeks, including four nods
for the 2016 Billboard Music Awards: Top Duo/Group, Top Rock Artist, Top
Rock Album (for Blurryface), and Top Rock Song (for Stressed Out).
The 2016 Billboard Music Awards will be presented on May 22 in Las
Vegas.
Blurryface – which also includes the RIAA gold certified single, Tear In My
Heart – made a stunning chart debut upon its 2015 release, entering the
SoundScan/Billboard 200 at #1 with total sales exceeding 147,000. The
album further served as the duo’s international breakthrough, reaching top 20
in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. Furthermore,
Twenty One Pilots’ Tyler Joseph stands as the #1 songwriter in the first
quarter of 2016 on the strength Stressed Out, besting veteran writers with
multiple hits to their name, while Stressed Out became the first song
penned by a single writer to top the Pop charts in nearly two years. Blurryface follows Twenty One Pilots’ 2013 Fueled By Ramen debut album, Vessel,
certified gold by the RIAA and boasting a trio of gold certified hit
singles in Holding On To You, Car Radio and House of Gold.
