The beloved band’s latest delivery is a harmonic blend of what fans know and love about Pendulum, with new, thoughtful collaborations across hard rock music that are exciting and push the groups sound forward to new horizons.
Acclaimed rising UK metal/underground hip hop artist Scarlxrd provides a blistering combination of rap and vicious screamo on “Mercy Killing” – backed by Pendulum’s unique brand of thunderous Drum n Bass to make it a thrilling ride from start to finish.
Sharing on the collaboration with Scarlxrd, frontman Rob Swire shares “It very quickly became clear that Scar [Scarlxrd] was one of our favorite people that we’ve ever had in the studio. He’s pure energy. Nothing was off-limits. Trap verse? Let’s do it. Slightly-more-pop-punk-than-usual chorus? Fuck it, let’s go.”
“Silent Spinner” is “one of the darker tracks we’ve done,” Rob describes. It caps off the EP brimming with a Spanish horn section and flows into a booming groove, slick vocal melodies, and metallic, futuristic synth sounds only Pendulum could finesse.
The EP arrives on the heels of the band’s recent arena tour of Australia and New Zealand. Starting in March of next year, the band will return to the UK for their biggest UK tour in over ten years with some of their most monumental shows to date. North American tour dates are on the docket to be announced in 2024.
