Pendulum

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Friday night, Preston. One of the best gigs I've ever been to. They played both their songs - the fast one that starts slow, and the fast one that starts fast - loads of times.

Saw them on Later and thought they sounded quite interesting.

Can't argue with that - even viewing them from the comfort of my armchair.
Arguably, they wouldn't exist without The Prodigy, but then you can trace most band's musical genealogy.
Would definitely go and see them live.

Found myself impressed by Kasabian as well.
While they've got some great tunes, I'd kind of snobbishly dismissed them as "lad rock".
Not entirely to my taste previously but the new album might have to be purchased.

Really? :urff:

Saw Pendulum at Glasto and they seemed okay but its nothing knew and they don't seem to have the tunes. Perfect as a support band or for a wedding but I wouldn't race out to buy the album, sorry.

Never apologise for your opinions - unless you're Nick Griffin, in which case I'm listening. :wink:

Tarantula wasn't bad. Blood Sugar is f**king brilliant when you're pilled up, dancing at top speed, and they put the strobes on.8)
Everything else is a bit sub-par. :|
Still, I've heard a LOT worse :)

was I the only one who thought PWEI when Pendulum were shaking their collective booty?

The Prodigy were there first and did it better, sorry. I like a couple of Pendulum tracks though.
