Twenty One Pilots debut Robot Voices at All Points East
Developed over time first seen 2 months ago
Twenty One Pilots gave the live debut of "Robot Voices", a track from their forthcoming eighth album "Breach", as the highlight of their headline set closing All Points East in London's Victoria Park on 30 August. Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun performed the song with guest vocalist Emi Grace, who had earlier played the festival's E3 Stage, before Joseph closed it out with the opening verse and chorus of The Beatles' "Let It Be", sparking a mass singalong. The show, the duo's only UK appearance this year, underlined the band's habit of weaving other artists' songs into their own material during major sets.
Elsewhere in the career-spanning 29-song set, "One Way" incorporated a bridge from Milky Chance's "Stolen Dance" and "Drum Show" featured a verse and chorus of Radiohead's "Creep". A pre-recorded message from Jack White introduced the band's cover of The White Stripes' "Seven Nation Army", a song they first played at the White Stripes' Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction last November and have since carried through their 2026 festival dates, including Mad Cool and Sziget. "Breach" is due for release on 12 September, and the band had also invited selected fans to document the show and their journeys to it using Hi-8 and miniDV cameras.

Twenty One Pilots are the American duo of Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun, known for blending genres like pop, rock and hip-hop and for weaving surprise covers and mash-ups into their live shows. The band are preparing to release their eighth studio album, "Breach", on 12 September, and have been previewing new material and reworking older songs during a run of festival dates through 2026.
All Points East is an annual music festival held in Victoria Park, east London, featuring multiple stages and headline acts across several days. Twenty One Pilots closed this year's event with their only UK show of 2026, a career-spanning set that mixed their own songs with snippets from other artists, a habit that has become a signature part of their live performances.
The wider context includes the band's growing association with The White Stripes, following their cover of "Seven Nation Army" at that group's induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in November last year, a song they have since played at other major festivals including Mad Cool and Sziget.
