Just a brief history on my music tastes before we take dip in the world that is Pendulum. They say a person will shuffle through several genres of music in their lifetime. I can approve this. When i was a wee-little boy of the age of about 6, i used to enjoy listening to Linkin Park, Greenday, and The Scorpions (Yes, The Scorpions are quite ancient now). Simply categorized, my taste was rock music. Growing up slightly in my pre teen years of around 13, i started developing a taste in Popular music (pop) and Soul like Ke$ha, Ne-Yo, Usher. All these tastes in music still linger with me to this day, i mean, Linkin Park and Greenday were amazing! However, i now breakthrough to my next and presumably my final stage in music taste. I now fall under the category of general electronic music, more specifically i enjoy EDM (Electronic Dance Music), Dubstep (Chillstep, heavy, brutal, etc.) and Drum and Bass.
Pendulum is like the soulmate for my music tastes. This is because it has elements of Dubstep, electronic, rock and quite predominantly, drum and bass. If you don't know, Pendulum is a group of talented musicians, formerly known as a band, from the great Australia. Speaking in modern informal terms, their music is simply 'sick' (which is good). Some of their tracks are purely instrumental whilst some include vocal parts. Their latest album 'Immersion' has a mixture of both and has met or even exceeded the standards of their previous albums. My favorite song from Pendulum is actually from the album 'In Silico.' The song is called 'The Other Side.' It features really nice drum and bass, just as all their songs do. Additionally, it also has really catchy vocal parts alongside unique versus. The music itself is electronic with a theme of drum and bass which makes for a perfectionist duo.
Pendulum has a rather supporting fan base that really appreciates the music. Unlike other artists or bands, hate is very prominent. This isn't generally the case with Pendulum as people enjoy the music and praise the group. I can say that i gladly hopped into the Pendulum fan train and fitted along with it rather nicely. If you don't listen to this genre of music, give it a try. Pendulum makes really quality music. It shows. In fact, i'm listening to '9000 Miles,' one of their songs right now. Goes to show! Obviously, this is all just part of my opinion until you have a listen yourself.

Looks like your typical band but sounds way better! |
