Why are they so fucking popular? Can someone please explain the autistic lore behind this band?

it's midwitcore. like coldplay, or kendrick lamar. pop music with a thin veneer of intellectual acclaim.

I think the young like them. I'm dating this 20 year old and she says she grew up with them or whatever.

They made a mediocre debut and a second album. The second album is out of print and many of the tracks on it were included on their major label debut, a much better album that kept the prior quirkiness with a new polish that was complementary. Blurryface was released a few years later and was a major commercial success as they became and sounded mainstream. Trench was soon after released which was more nuanced and memorable in comparison to Blurryface, a fantastic record in its own right. Shortly after the first year of the pandemic they released Scaled and Icy, which apparently has not much to do with the "lore" and consists of great Pop tracks. Clancy was released a few months ago and seems to be a culmination of all their lore-based albums. Also very good. I don't know much of the narrative, I just think TOP makes great music

Kendrick is peak midwit but early Coldplay and most TOP is simple yet great Pop/Rock

The Dema/Clancy lore, or the backstory of the real-life band?
