Why the Twenty One Pilots Hiatus Was a Good Thing
Twenty One Pilots went silent July 6, 2017. Fans like me waited patiently (or as patient as one can) for the announcement of something from the duo, like perhaps a new single or album, with fingers crossed that we wouldn't have to wait too long. A little over a year later, our prayers are answered and we got two new singles, a tour, an album, and an engaging story to follow. As of writing this, there are now three singles, each with there own music video, merch bundles, and album pre-orders. While the Twenty One Pilots silence seemed sudden, I thought it was a great move on their part and was beneficial for all parties. Here's a breakdown of who this hiatus was good for and why.
