Twenty One Pilots

Twenty One Pilots is an American musical duo from Columbus, Ohio. The band was formed in 2009 by lead vocalist Tyler Joseph along with two other members both of whom left in 2011. The line-up now consists of Joseph and drummer Josh Dun.
==Fandom==
Tyler and Josh have given their fans the fandom nickname of "The Skeleton Clique" also known colloquially as "The Clique" or "Clikies".
Twenty One Pilots fanworks often focus on themes of depression and mental illness, like the music.
The Clique is a large, creative, and passionate group of fans. This fandom is associated with Bandom. This may be due to being signed to record label Fueled by Ramen with Fall Out Boy and Panic! at the Disco and touring with these bands during FOB's Save Rock and Roll Tour. 
* Joshler - the pairing of the two band members, or a portmanteau used to refer to the two of them.
The fandom has something of a reputation for overanalyzing the music or Tyler and Josh.Imagine if fob fans were as fake deep as 21p fans like “I think Patrick always wearing a hat symbolizes the safety blankets we carry with us into adulthood” “Pete subconsciously grabbing his crotch on stage symbolizes that life fucks us all” – bedussey, 2015-07-20
