Twenty One Pilots Speed Things Up And Score Multiple New Top 10s

Like most bands, Twenty One Pilots typically space albums out by several years. That gives the duo time to not only promote one project and get the most possible out of it, but also to tour and be creative, coming up with something to say on the next collection.

The Grammy-winning group is speeding things up, as its new album Breach is expected in September. The pair last released Clancy in May 2024, so these two titles will be only a little more than a year apart.

Twenty One Pilots have introduced Breach with lead single “The Craving,” which dropped in mid-June and has already become a quick success on a handful of Billboard charts.

“The Craving” Becomes a Fast Chart Win

“The Craving” debuts on four tallies in the United States this week. The cut instantly becomes another top 10 for the group on half of all the rankings on which it currently appears.

Twenty One Pilots launches “The Craving” inside the uppermost region on both the Alternative Digital Song Sales and Rock Digital Song Sales charts, as the single becomes a quick bestseller. The tune opens highest on the alternative list, landing at No. 4, while it narrowly sneaks into the loftiest space on the rock ranking, debuting at No. 9.

Twenty One Pilots Hits a New Milestone

The group collects its milestone twenty-fifth hit on both of the purchase-only tallies where “The Craving” debuts this week. Twenty One Pilots has now seen 20 tunes break into the top 10 on the Alternative Digital Song Sales chart and just one fewer on the rock ranking.

“The Craving” Is Also a Hit at Radio

“The Craving” is also a quick success story on a handful of radio rosters, as DJs and programmers put the single into rotation right away. The first single from Breach starts at No. 38 on the Rock & Alternative Airplay chart. It sits just two spots further south on the slightly more specific Alternative Airplay list, coming in at No. 40.

Twenty One Pilots has now earned a fitting 21 smashes on the Rock & Alternative Airplay tally and 22 on the Alternative Airplay list throughout the past decade or so.
