Tyler Joseph has just confirmed that we’ll be getting another new twenty one pilots single this week.

The frontman took to Twitter to share that Clancy track Backslide will arrive this Thursday, April 25, along with a music video directed by drummer Josh Dun.

Interestingly Backslide sits at fifth on the Clancy tracklist, whereas previous singles Overcompensate and Next Semester come first and second on the record (and were also released in that order). So are we going to get an advance peek at a deeper storyline within Clancy on Backslide, or is it more of a standalone single and video? Watch this space.

Earlier this month, Tyler said that every track on Clancy will be getting a music video – and they all “must come out the day the album comes out”, which is May 17.

While we wait for Backslide, watch the videos for Overcompensate and Next Semester below:

See the full Clancy tracklist:

1. Overcompensate
2. Next Semester
3. Midwest Indigo
4. Routines In The Night
5. Backslide
6. Vignette
7. The Craving (Jenna’s Version)
8. Lavish
9. Navigating
10. Snap Back
11. Oldies Station
12. At the Risk Of Feeling Dumb
13. Paladin Strait
