SOMEONE GET HOLD OF PATRICK ah/ (Pendulum split)

Quote:

Pendulum have announced that they have split up.

The Australian dance rockers released three studio albums in a 10-year career, with their most recent effort 'Immersion' coming out in 2010. They have also been a fixture on the festival circuit in recent years, playing over 30 festivals across Europe last summer.

The band's multi-instrumentalist and main songwriter Rob Swire [pictured on the right], who is currently touring with his side-project Knife Party, announced the news, writing on his official Twitter account Twitter.com/rob_swire: "There will be no further Pendulum live shows. There are no current plans for a new album in 2013."

Swire also confirmed that Knife Party was very much his priority in a recent interview with Australian radio station Triple J, saying when asked about the future of Pendulum: "The Knife Party thing is going so well we don't really feel like going back to junior school anytime soon."

He continued: "We're having too much fun with this project. It's also great because Pendulum towards the end sort of felt like we were doing it because we had to and that's never a fun way to do music. Whereas Knife Party is pretty much solely us doing what we want to and if no one likes it we don't care."

It looks as though the name Pendulum will still continue to operate, with members Paul "El Hornet" Harding and Ben "The Verse" Mount continuing to book DJ sets under the band's name.

everyone else rejoice

I thought they were a new band :conf: shows how much I know..

nah they've been going since at least 2006 (that's when Hold Your Colour came out IIRC, so even before that)

Oh, boo. I liked them, but I like Knife Party, so all is not lost.

And everything post HYC was shiiiiiit.

Saw them live. True story.

Never liked Pendulum though, so good news I guess.

And me!

Nooooooooooooooooooo :'( Why must this happen

at least Girls Aloud are getting back together..

They were past their best so no big loss.

I genuinely feel like I've just been told a member of my family has died.

I'm lost for words, this is the worst thing to ever happen.

Knife Party have one good song out, and that's how they are known. Pendulum were defining themselves more and more with each album and building such a strong fan base amongst people, who were eager for their fourth album.

I said this, I did I said it, when Rob started Knife Party I was like 'Wait and see, Pendulum will break up soon.' I was right. So now I'm bitter towards KP.

OMFG WHAT AM I GOING TO DO WITH MY PENDULUM SHIRTS AND MY HOODY. FFS.

It's called changing your sound, for the better.

Call this sh*t... [best song from their last album..]

Try. See, you can't call that sh*t. Can't be done.

Always found them a bit headachy.
