Heathens was released by Twenty One Pilots in 2016 as a single from the Suicide Squad film soundtrack. Written by Tyler Joseph, the song reached the top of charts internationally and became one of the duo's signature tracks. The opening line, all my friends are heathens, take it slow, quickly became a quotable hook online, used in fan edits, lyric videos and montages for antiheroes and outsider characters. Its mix of pop, rock and hip hop helped it cross from the film audience to a much wider meme and editing community.
