Top 10 Reasons Twenty One Pilots Sucks

The Top Ten
1 Their music is preachy

I hate when people say twenty one pilots is preachy and that they try to shove Christianity down your throats. Yeah, some of their songs have lyrics referring to God/Christianity, but what people don't understand is that Tyler Joseph singing about his beliefs and stuff about God is way different from him telling people they should be Christian or else they should burn in hell. That is like saying that artists who write songs about partying on a Sunday morning are shoving atheism down your throat because there is supposed to be church on Sunday.

The members of the band are Christian, which I don't care about. However, they seem to preach god in a lot of their songs and shove Christianity down our throats in a lot of their songs, which turns me off from their music.

In one of their songs they literally say the god is dead. I didn't get any christian vibes in any of their songs and didn't even know they were until you said.

What do you mean they push god on everyone? Almost none of their songs preach about god

2 They try too hard to be mainstream, cool, and hip

I agree with the dude that says they save lives by the way I posted my own thing just scroll down I'm the one in almost all caps

I did agree. Most of their songs are about things that I don't hear anymore. Except for all the copys

They basically just scream into the microphone.

My turtle died when I put on 21 pilots

3 They try to be meaningful, but they fail

I sadly I had to vote for this in order to comment. this is the stupidest thing I have ever seen. their lyrics are by far the most meaningful lyrics I have ever heard. I mean, all I hear nowadays is people talking about their boyfriend dumping them on the radio, it's so refreshing to hear twenty one pilots lyrics that actually have meaning.

They often try to have meaningful lyrics, but their execution is so bad, it's like a modern pop band trying to write a song which is not about love or partying.

I do not agree because Twenty One Pilots is amazing and all of their songs have a meaning, even if it is hidden deep in the lyrics.

Twenty One Pilots and NF are the most meaningful singers ever.

4 They try too hard to appeal to high school teenagers

But? whats wrong with that? teenagers are allowed to like music. In my opinion, 21 pilots is amazing because they prepare teenagers for adulthood by making them think. Think about life and finding purpose. That's important to people and, so what if they're teenagers? I say let it be

Uhh...yeah! Because they try to send messages to them against suicide, drugs, self hate! This is a bad point to add to a list.

5 They can’t write songs, the lyrics don’t even make sense

Most of their lyrics have hidden messages and metaphors in them so if you actually take the time to read the lyrics and use your brain (or just search the meanings up on google) their lyrics will make plenty more sense.

Have you actually tried to listen for a meaning? Or are you just listening once to a song and calling it meaningless.

They do. They use metaphors. Look up meanings of some of their songs.

6 They switch from singing and rapping poorly

I'm personally not a fan of TOP, but that's just my opinion, you can enjoy them all you want. For me, they just come across as a bad copy of Linkin Park.

Lets See You Do Better

7 Tyler Joseph's voice is annoying

I don't know what it is I don't like about his voice, it sounds like to me a 14-year-old boy who can't sing, but is trying to sing.

He even says: "I wish I had a better voice to sing some better words."

Tyler has a beautiful voice and he is great at what he does

One of the most monotone singers I know

8 Their rapping is incredibly bad

Tyler is a really good rapper in my opinion because he has good lyrics and can rap fast.

Lol. They are amazing at rap. Maybe you just don't like rap music in general?

He Can Rap Better Than a lot Of Other "Rappers"

Have you tried heavydirtysoul or levitate? I have and it's hard.

9 They try too hard to be experimental

Being experimental is good. This just means they have a variety of different songs.

So did David Bowie...

10 They try too hard to be emo

Umm no, emo would be something with deeper vocals and strong bass lines. Tøp may have the emo based lyrics but not the overall feel

The Contenders
11 They are just another generic Alternative Rock band

What's special about this band? absolutely nothing I wouldn't even call them rock, there's nothing rock about them

They're not even a rock band, they're a mediocre rap band.

12 The sound of their "music" is way too compressed.

I've always hated these guys, but I finally realized why; all their instruments and "singing/rapping" are beyond meshed together, you will never hear just one noise, you will always hear a bare minimum of 2 noises layered over each other.

13 They're bland
14 They can't sing live...at all.

At concerts, they either scream the lyrics or poorly try to sing them. It's really bad.
