Choker (song)

It was released through Fueled by Ramen on April 30, 2021, as the second single from their sixth studio album, Scaled and Icy (2021).

Regarding the writing process of the track, Joseph described it as a "rash" for referring him to dig back into older songwriting habits and methods.

"[1] He also stated that, although the band is evolving and maturing, he doesn't need to not look back to his old writing styles previously established on pre-Blurryface albums, such as Twenty One Pilots, Regional at Best and Vessel.

"I think "Choker" is the beginning of me being okay with the entire body of work, and feeling like I don't have to steer away from some things that people would consider from our older records.

"[1] The video, directed by Mark C. Eshleman, was filmed at Big Fun, a toy store located in Columbus, Ohio, the hometown of members Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun.
