BEATCRAVE FAV: Pendulum
By Mali
They’ve been everywhere, I know. But that’s no reason for them not to be picked. These boys have recently burst onto the scene (even though they’ve been around since 2005) with an amazing new sound that is somewhere between NIN, Depeche Mode, and something totally new. Some bands get a push and then fade away, but a band like this will stay around because they seem to have endless material, their songs are not only catchy but have depth, they’ve been around which shows that they understand the game, and most importantly, they’re awesome!
Check out Pendulum in our new BEATCRAVE FAV series where we pick one awesome band a day and give you all the details you could ever want and then let you vote for you favorite pick every Friday.
