Pendulum is a renowned electronic rock drum and bass band originating from Perth, Australia, in 2002 and later based in the United Kingdom. Founded by Rob Swire, Gareth McGrillen, and Paul "El Hornet" Harding, Pendulum quickly gained recognition for blending energetic drum and bass beats with rock elements, striking synths, and anthemic hooks. Their debut album, "Hold Your Colour" (2005), became a landmark release in the drum and bass scene and broadened the genre’s mainstream appeal worldwide.

Later transitioning to the UK, Pendulum further established their reputation with high-octane live shows and subsequent releases, notably "In Silico" (2008) and "Immersion" (2010), both of which topped charts and featured crossover hits like "Propane Nightmares" and "Watercolour." Pendulum is celebrated for their innovative fusion of live instruments with electronic production, which has heavily influenced both electronic and rock music landscapes. After a hiatus beginning in 2012, the band returned to the stage and studio with renewed vigor, continuing to captivate audiences with their dynamic performances and forward-thinking sound.
