 Scaled and Icy negates all the good they achieved in Trench, starting from the title: 'Scaled and Icy' is an anagram of 'Clancy is dead.'

 The unlimited creative freedom paradoxically led to an over-simplification of the rhythmic part.

It points out the album's banal synth sounds, overly simple lyrics, and a loss of the nuanced, darker themes that once defined the duo. While some tracks show flashes of quality, the overall work lacks depth and cohesion. The album’s optimistic tone and pastel aesthetic clash with the band’s former complexity, disappointing longtime fans. Explore the full Scaled and Icy review to see why Twenty One Pilots’ latest album struggles to meet expectations.
