About Jumpsuit

"Jumpsuit" is a song written and recorded by the American musical duo Twenty One Pilots. It was released on July 11, 2018, as the first of the singles from their fifth studio album Trench (2018), alongside "Nico and the Niners". It was the first song to be released by the band after a year-long public silence. The track was nominated for Best Rock Song at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards.

The band started working on the song during the Emotional Roadshow World Tour. Tyler Joseph, the band's frontman, created the bass riff during that time and would play it during sound checks before shows. Following the tour, the band withdrew from public life in order to record the album Trench. Joseph revealed in an interview with NME that the album was originally supposed to be a "lighter sounding and softer record," but "then he wrote 'Jumpsuit' which ruined that." On July 6, 2018, the band broke their year-long silence by an email of a closing eye with the words "ARE YOU STILL SLEEPING?" Three days later, they returned to social media for the first time in their year-long hiatus, posting a clip from the official video for the song inside of an opening eye. The next day, they posted another clip from the official video playing a muffled version of the song inside a nearly fully open eye. On July 11, the song was then released along with its music video.
