Hip-hop rockers twenty one pilots have earned their first No. 1 on the U.S. Alternative Songs chart with their latest single "Stressed Out."

The chart-topper follows the duo's previous single "Tear in My Heart," which peaked at No. 2. It's also likely a good sign for "Stressed Out's" potential on Billboard's Hot 100, where it continues to climb and currently sits at No. 71.

As we previously mentioned, twenty one pilots is continuing their massive success this year by already announcing summer 2016 tour dates.
