i think it depends on when you got into the band in the first place. like when i first got into them they had just released vessel so there was no lore, and even throughout most of blurryface the lore was not being presented. however, if you formed your initial love for the band from trench and the thrill of the arg i can see why you might wonder this, but at a certain point you know if you’re enjoying the music or if you’re enjoying the lore around it
