Pendulum was among the many first digital artists I listened to method again in highschool. I began with “Blood Sugar” and “Painkiller” (which I later realized after saying goodbye to Limewire wasn’t even their unique, they had been only a function) after which in fact discovering their 2005 Important Combine, Maintain Your Color, In Silico, and finally seeing their last headline present in Los Angeles at The Wiltern in 2011.

The group was a place to begin and a pillar of my digital upbringing and I used to be even lucky sufficient to have drummer KJ Sawka as a roommate for just a few years and get a firsthand have a look at the studio arrange and study extra in regards to the historical past of the group. All this to say that Pendulum is in my blood and I, and a whole bunch of 1000’s of others, have been ready patiently for his or her official return.

They got here again tentatively at Extremely Music Competition in 2017 as they headlined the competition with visitor appearances from deadmau5 and Tom Morello, however you may say they didn’t actually return till their Elemental EP in 2021. By all metrics, they’re formally again.

Following the discharge of their latest single “Halo,” with Bullet For My Valentine, final Friday, the group has launched an official documentary chronicling the tip of the primary period of Pendulum, the rise of Knife Get together, the return of Pendulum at Extremely, and what the long run holds.

“Halo” could possibly be the primary signal of a brand new album from the group, or one other EP. We don’t actually know; famously the group, and frontman Rob Swire, are fairly tight-lipped about their future plans. However from the footage, it seems just like the group, below new administration and with renewed vigor, the group is in it for the lengthy haul as soon as once more.
