twenty one pilots - Scaled And Icy (Livestream Version) (2021) Hi Res

Alternative rock-pop group twenty one pilots release a new digital deluxe edition of their album Scaled and Icy, featuring the original album alongside a collection of live versions from their massive Ohio livestream concert from the Schottenstein Center in their hometown of Columbus.

Scaled and Icy is the sixth studio album by American musical duo, Twenty One Pilots! The album's title is a play on "scaled back and isolated", a phrase frontman Tyler Joseph associated with music produced during the COVID-19 pandemic, though the phrase is also an anagram of "Clancy is dead", a reference to the protagonist of their previous album, Trench.

Scaled and Icy was written and largely produced by Joseph in his home studio over a year-long period during the COVID-19 pandemic, while drummer Josh Dun engineered the drum tracks remotely. Dun had revealed in November 2020 that they were still working "remotely" on the album, with both members being in different locations during the time. He describes the recording process, "we both have our own studios, which is really nice, so he comes up with a lot of stuff at his studio, sends it over to me, and then I come up with some stuff here at my studio and then send it back".
