It couldn’t get better for Twenty One Pilots fans. The American duo announced that their new album, titled Trench, is set for release on October 5th. This will be their fifth studio album and follow-up to 2015’s Blurryface.

Twenty One Pilots also announced a massive Banditos Tour, which is set to kick off on October 16th in Nashville. The tour will see them playing across North America, Oceania, and Europe, with the last show being scheduled for March 17th, 2019 in Lisbon.

But, wait, this isn’t all. Josh Dun and Tyler Joseph decided to treat their fans with two brand new songs, “Jumpsuit” and “Nico and the Niners.”

You can listen to both tracks below.

Twenty One Pilots’ last album, Blurryface, was their most successful work to date. It received positive reviews from the critics and was named one of the best releases in 2015. The album enjoyed particular commercial success; debuting at number one on US Billboard 200 and making the history as the first album in to have every track receive at least a Gold certification from the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America).

Blurryface also brought them their first Grammy Award, when they got a win in Best Pop Duo/Group Performance category for “Stressed Out.”
