Here’s the thing. What makes us so sure that tyler’s the one who made up these logos and not josh? Since the east is pointing towards another planet where dwarfs live. Josh truly believes in aliens , which is why the alien persona might be impersonating josh , leading us to the fact that it is he who created these logos.

IT HAS BEEN SAID So the three symbols go along with a line from Fairly Local. Josh (the alien) is the proud, we (the circle) are the few, and Tyler (the human) is the emotional. I still think Josh is Clancy.

That’s so cool! I have always thought that the alien is Josh, and the skeleton is Tyler. Especially that Josh has a thing with aliens, he dreamed about them kidnapping him, and now he has this as a tattoo on his arm, him as an astronaut being kidnapped by a spaceship. Most of the Norse stuff is new to me, so it’s the first time I see this compass symbol... but I can clearly see the resemblance. And you’ve pronounced the nine realms correctly 😂 Also... TØP and Marvel in the same video?! Yaaaaas please ❤️😂 Great job, Abigail

Guys. in The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien it is mentioned that while map-making the Dwarves always put East at the top, instead of North. Svartalfheim is the realm of the dark elves, basically a crossbred of Elves and Dwarves. Yet if you look at the bottommost symbol the "east is up" logo is there too. That would most likely be Nidavellir, since it's the closest of the Nine Realms to the roots of Yggdrasil, the world tree. Could Tyler have taken some inspiration from LOTR and The Hobbit as well?

I second this!! I have a whole twitter thread of LOTR connections to Tyler's work. I'm still trying to figure out if Sahlo Folina could be inspired by Elvish (so far I've only found the words "saloh" and "folima" in elvish) but this all makes a lot of sense. Tolkien was also influenced by norse mythology so I think it's definitely possible that Tyler is very influenced by LOTR/The Hobbit.

Me too! I literally just watched the SCB video before this one xD what a coincidence
the thing about drawning with blood in the forehead is about another symbol. I dont know the name in norse, but it translates to Helm of Awe. Its a type of nordic magical symbols called galdastrafir.

Veldismagn's the one with blood, not the helm of awe (Ægishjálmr) :)
The Norse compass is also called a vegsívir, which is Icelandic for “wayfinder”, where jumpsuit was filmed.
Yesterday, I saw a video about a Frozen 2 theory with the Vegsisir. Today, I saw an other video about the Vegvisir. I am from Norway and have never heard about it before, but it is everywhere now.

“I don’t know which way I’m going//but I can hear my way around”
I was having a really bad day and this honestly really helped
This is a bit unrelated to the logo topic of the video, but I wanted to share a quick story... I'm in a high school speech league, and today was our Districts tournament. I competed in the "oral interpretation of poetry" event and did a selection of Twenty-One Pilots songs (Migraine, Holding Onto You, and Neon Gravestones) and won 1st place! A lot of people who heard my interp. have only known ToP as that "One weird screamo band," but after hearing the lyrics spoken/performed, they've completely changed their minds, and decided to give the music a second chance. I was really proud to be a mini Pop Song Professor at my own school, and hope I'll have the chance to reach more people when I compete at States in March. Wish me luck!

This also fits with “the hype” “I don’t knwo why I heat I’m going but I can feel my way around”
"Do you remember these logos right here?" Me, looking at the giant clique flag on my wall: ...no
Interesting theory. Best way to find out is to get an interviewer to ask them. Probably not the typical question they get every day so it may be a nice surprise. Hopefully we'll find out one day. There is sooooo much mystery and individual interpretation to their music. Another reason to just love them so much ll-//
Another tøp video. This was a nice surprise. Great video as always, Clifford.
4:47 i heard that the E symbol represents "east is up" so on the jumpsuit medallion, it marks that east is up rather than north on a regular map. it also means that east is the only way out of trench (since the medallion is a map of trench). you can see that there is an opening at the end which is like an exit. i've heard that the map kind of looks like a brain to represent how we are trapped in our brain - in our internal thoughts - like we are trapped in trench, to go along with the storyline of the music videos.
The utmost respect to Abigail for researching this and putting all the pieces together for what is likely something that influenced Tyler. Great vid and great work
I’m still always spellbound by how much thought Tyler and josh (mainly Tyler) really put into everything
The hype has a lyric that says "now I don't know which way I'm going but I can hear my way around
I feel like now that we have the outside music video, this makes even more sense. Ned gave them clothes with the clique symbols on them on the island of Voldsoy, which is where Tyler (Clancy) was finally given direction as to what he needed to do.
Maybe the compass can be paired with a map
The “Let’s get an F in the chat” like killed me 😂😂😂😂
You sir are a full fledged member of the Clique just like myself and countless other people. Idk about u but I, myself have never been one to "follow" or be part of anything even similar to a clique nor have I ever preferred a band or artist over all the rest but ever since I first heard Twenty One Pilots many years ago I have been a huge fangirl and rarely if ever listen to any other music. As a musician myself I understand the genius that is Tyler Joseph and how completely amazing his music is. There is no other band or musician on earth that go so in depth with the storyline nor the endless layers in every song that allows the listeners to not only hear something they didnt before in every song regardless of how many thousands of times you may listen to that song you will always find yourself hearing some new layer that was always there but your just now discovering. Not to mention if you are a true fangirl like I am and you've spent countless hours researching the dema websites contents you also know just how brillant and complex the storyline actually is where equally if you do the work to research each clue you will always learn something new and you will find that some of the inspiration behind the trench storyline dates back thousands of years to the first and oldest known religion in the world Zoroastrianism and combines that with things related and unrelated in past and present such as Nicolas Borbaki the mathematician group that created the Ø along his own family and even his feelings on suicide and how its glorified in pop culture. The layers both musically and lyrically are absolutely genius. If you follow the path the research takes you on it's as close to understanding what that kitchen sink is to him as it gets!
This is a really good theory great job Abigail
Abigail, this is so awesome!!!!
This is such a cool video, I really love this theory! It’s also really cool you got Abigail in the video! 🙌
i remember tyler said like doesnt want his tattoos "meaning" to be on the internet but very awesome theory!
Short but educative! great vid!
Drop an f to pay respecc to Abigail for their services to the clique
That was mind-blowingly awesome, thanks Cliff and Abigail F
Another thing that could go along with this theory is that - to me, anyway - the jumpsuit medallion kind of looks like a maze with all the lines and stuff
9 realms, 9 bishops. Maybe correlation?
Thanks Abigail! Cool theory!
Thanks Abigail! 💛
I know I'm late but thank youuuuuuu

Here's some lyrics from "The Hype" No I don't know which way I'm going But I can hear my way around Nice to know my kind (the clique) will be on my side I don't believe the hype These lyrics convey that Tyler feels strongly that his fans are different from others, which is also communicated through these lines "Even if the clique and the people were to vote it's the few the proud the emotional" And the lines "These lyrics aren't for everyone only few understand" And the line "These faces facing me- they know what I mean" Just realized this connection

That's really interesting! I was shocked when you mentioned Norse mythology because something about that came up when I was doing research for my Trench theory vid, but I came across it while researching connections between Trench and Middle Earth.
nice theory 🤔 nice work Abi 👏
Love your Videos
On the Vegvisir the letter E does appear to be on top. But also check out the symbol for "The Helm of Awe" it literally looks like Tyler and Josh filled in the head to create the skull and alien. They already have 3 straight lines. It's a symbol of protection and might.
THATS MY FRIEND! 1:35

My nephew got the norse tattoo on him last year and first thing I said was, that looks like the twenty one pilots clique logo 🤣 glad someone else thought so

I knew it, I was thinking about this the other day. I have been researching and reading more about Norse symbols and runes and it struck me that TOP symbols look very similar.

This is the second Norse compass video that’s popped up from a KZreadr I watch regularly within two days. My Mythology/Magnus Chase Brain nerd brain is very happy.
Upon doing extensive and lengthy research (like a 2 minute Google search) I was able to learn that the Svartalfheim dwarves were described as excellent crafts men who lived underground. So, this leads me to conduct one of two theories, 1. Tyler is referring to twenty one pilots before they became famous (underground artists) or, 2. That Tyler is referring to him writing most of Trench while in his basement (basements being located under the main structure of a house or building). Just a little idea based on some quick research so if anyone would like to add onto this theory, feel free!
THATS MY FRIEND ABSOLUTELY ICONIC B
YES MARVEL AND TØP COMBINED!!! Imagine if this was all created because the two of them just love the Marvel fandom?!? Anyhow, I think this theory is really interesting: THANKS ABIGAIL!!
3:33 You seem almost disappointed. 😂 Super cool video! I’ll definitely be looking into this when I get the time. I like that it can be called a wayfinder. Makes me think of Kingdom Hearts BBS. Thank you! ❤️
Wow really cool video!
Dwarfs are the craftsman of the nine realms. Tyler could see his songwriting as craftsmanship and east is up could be a way of saying creating is a way to get “out” or to where you want to go
the "E" looking thing is up. If you look to the *east* of the thing. You see that realm that looks like it. *East is up*
I feel like I read about this comparison before with the symbols from norse, also there is another theory that the yellow circle thing represents the two halves of the brain, symbolizing the journey is not just physical but also mental!
That like diss like to like ratio is amazing
not sure if anyone has pointed this out yet, but when i googled the symbol, it says it was icelandic, and the jumpsuit music video was filmed in iceland.. not sure if there’s some correlation there but
Omg I saw this Norse mythology compass thing on supercarlinbrothers the other day wow!
When you said “unless he’s trying to tell us dwarves are up” I thought of ned because he’s tiny like a dwarf but I don’t have a whole theory of that so if anyone wants to make one about that then that’s fine because I have no idea what to do when it comes to theorizing
Pop Song Professor? More like TØP Søng Prøfessør, amirite?

oh damn I got this symbol Vegvisir tattoed in Iceland. At this time I was at a point where I failed much in my life and didn't know where to go. I decided to get it tattoed and just let my life "flow" and see where it takes me. It was the best decision ever and I couldn't wish for a better place to be in now even when there were tough times in between. So cool, I got an unoffical TOP tattoo haha!
