Ohio's duo
Twenty One Pilots, vocalist and keyboardist Tyler Joseph and drummer Josh Dun,
debuted their catchy brand of keyboard-based rock on
Twenty One Pilots (2009) and Regional at Best (2011).
Vessel (Fueled by Ramen, 2013), that collects material from those
self-released albums too, became famous for the arena-pop
Ode to Sleep, but most songs rely on a more complex interplay of
multiple vocals styles (even within the same song, as in the masterful
Holding on to You)
with an effect that sometimes borders on
Queen-ish
musichall (Migraine, Semi-Automatic).
Sheer melodic exuberance pervades the
jovial country-rock singalong of House of Gold
and the hazardous synthesis of
synth-pop, hard-rock and bubblegum-pop that is Guns for Hands.
The range of formats is wide, from operatic power-ballad to the thumping house music of Trees.

I Twenty One Pilots, un duo dell'Ohio formato dal cantante e tastierista Tyler Joseph e dal batterista Josh Dun, esordirono con il loro brand di orecchiabile rock tastieristico su Twenty One Pilots (2009) e Regional at Best (2011).
Vessel (Fueled by Ramen, 2013), che contiene anche materiale estratto da questi primi due album autoprodotti, divenne celebre per l'arena pop Ode to Sleep, ma la maggior parte delle canzoni vantano una pi— complessa interazione tra diversi stili vocali (anche all'interno della stessa canzone, come nella magistrale Holding on to You) con un effetto che qualche volta si avvicina al music-hall Queeneggiante (Migraine, Semi-Automatic). Pura esuberanza melodica pervade l'allegro singalong country-rock di House of Gold e l'azzardata sintesi di synth-pop, hard-rock e bubblegum pop che Š Guns for Hands. La gamma di formats Š ampia, dalla power-ballad operistica alla martellante musica house di Trees.
