Saw these on TV a few times with impressive performances, especially on 'Later' and the Glastonbury coverage. Now having seen them live, I'm a total convert! cheers

Does Pendulum do it for anyone else here?

Used to like them until they brought in the whiney emo-style vocalist on their second album.

I've heard they're rather good live though.

I liked 'Hold your Colour' their debut, they are actually from my hometown in Australia, left us for UK shores in 2003.
However, I agree with the emo quote, the second album is just a bit much for me!

Have got the album but hardly listened to it. Seeing them live on tv though seems unbelievable. Propane Nightmares is absolutely brilliant...... seems to go down down an absolute storm.

Saw them on the TV coverage of Glasto. Impressed by the noise and energy they produced. Utterly dismayed at the stupid MC they had shouting inanities at the crowd.

Good to hear what you all reckon. I must admit emo's pretty much off my radar, so missed the significance of the personnel change. Might be going deaf already, but he seems a bit indistinct with his lyrics.

Perth sounds like a real hotbed of creative talent, LongLegs. There seem to be lots of musos and actors hailing from there.

Yes,

I am very proud to come from such a creative place.

Loads of great bands, here are some you should check out, if you haven't already:
