Twenty One Pilots - Drag Path

Drag Path started as an exclusive bonus track on the Twenty One Pilots 2025 album Breach (Digital Remains edition) and that meant that only the fans who bought the special edition could hear it – at least at first.  However, the song went viral on TikTok and so now, in a slightly edited form, the band responded to fan demand and released it as their new single.  This is only right – the song has become a cultural moment, grabbing hold of the zeitgeist with both hands and giving it a good shake.

The song is about the emotional traces that we leave in life, whether they be memories, scars or reminders of people or events that shape us – as well as connection and being found in hard times. The video to accompany the song is something special, and reflects the lyrics in certain ways. It tells the story of a young rabbit, who joins his elders at dinner where they share their memories of their past lives (and some of the pictures they share foreshadow what comes later).  Unfortunately, they are not alone – a mysterious and frightening beast approaches their idyllic moment with evil intent…

I'm not going to include any spoilers - watch it yourself and see how it ends. Made in detailed stop‑motion with a beautifully circular structure, the visuals feel hand‑crafted and expressive, matching the song’s emotional depth.  The end is something of a deus ex machina, but one which cannot fail to satisfy the legions of fans who have campaigned for this song to be released as a single for quite some time now. Written and directed by Tobias Gundorff Boesen and made at The Animation Workshop, this video is really something quite special.
