Columbus is featured in Twenty One Pilots' new music videos
Columbus has left its mark on the music scene.
Central Ohio's skyscrapers, shopping malls and barns were the backdrop for a series of new music videos by alternative rock duo Twenty One Pilots.
The band is comprised of singer Tyler Joseph and drummer Josh Dun, who are both Columbus natives. Their new album, "Clancy," released Friday, along with 11 new music videos to go with each track.
Here's every Columbus locale the Dispatch spotted in their new videos.
'At the Risk of Feeling Dumb'
Most of the music video for the catchy "At the Risk of Feeling Dumb" takes place in an open field, but it transitions to the band playing on top of the Hexion building Downtown near the end.
The Hexion building, located at 180 E. Broad St., is just a short walk from the Ohio Statehouse and a number of the city's skyscrapers.
Also, the lyrics for "At the Risk of Feeling Dumb" contain a reference to the city's sometimes-beloved, sometimes-hated beltway, Interstate 270.
'Overcompensate'
This music video takes place in what appears to be the Columbus Athenaeum, a wedding and concert venue located right next door to the Hexion building.
The building located at 32 N. Fourth St. was originally built as a Masonic Temple, and it's on the National Register of Historic Places.
'Backslide'
The action starts at the Centerville Market in Galena before singer Joseph hops on a bike and pedals through what looks like Columbus neighborhoods. His final destination is a house in German Village, where his bandmate, Dun, is grilling a burger.
While the music video is only a few minutes long, a real bike ride from Galena to German Village would be around 24 miles and take a little over two hours to complete.
'Lavish'
The band's video for "Lavish" jumps around to dozens of Columbus locations as the duo visits signs echoing the song's lyrics. Here's a list of all the places we could pick out.

Joseph and Dun were back in their hometown Friday, May 24 for a concert at the Newport Music Hall commemorating their new album.
