In 2005 they released their debut album, Hold Your Colour. Critically, the album was well-received in both the United Kingdom and Australia. In addition, it was one of the biggest selling Drum and Bass releases of all time. Pendulum have also collaborated with Freestylers, releasing the single "Fasten Your Seatbelt". MC $pyda and DJ Tenor Fly also feature as vocalists on "Tarantula".
Pendulum's sound is typically heavy beats accompanied by low, buzzing bass lines, overlaid with synthesized leads. As of their second album, In Silico, further experiments with sound are evident with many more elements from rock and typical electronic music being incorporated into their music. "In Silico" is Pendulum's first album for Warner Bros. Records via the bands Ear Storm imprint.
Their track "Vault" was played by almost every DJ and was declared by annual Knowledge Drum’n’bass Awards as The Best Track of the Year. They have also created many remixes, including a remix of Voodoo People by The Prodigy.
The band's third album "Immersion" was released on 24th May 2010, entering the UK album charts at #1 at the end of that week.
In 2011, members Swire and McGrillen started their side project, Knife Party, as a way to create different kinds of electronic music. It has since become their primary focus, however they have not ruled out the possibility of new Pendulum material in the future.

9000 Miles
Pendulum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I still feel like home is in your arms
Pendulum's song "9000 Miles" is a heartfelt tribute to a long-distance relationship where the singer is separated by an enormous distance from his/her loved one. The lyrics convey a deep sense of longing and nostalgia for that person, as the singer still feels like home is in his/her arms, even though he/she is thousands of miles away. The 9000 miles back to the person suggests that the singer is acutely aware of the physical distance separating them, and somehow amplifies the emotional pain of being so far from the person who means so much to him/her.
It's also possible to interpret the lyrics more broadly, as a meditation on the nature of distance and the way it shapes human relationships. The theme of homesickness is a universal one, and the notion of being far from home and missing loved ones will resonate with anyone who has ever been away from family or friends, even if it's only a few hours' drive. Ultimately, the song speaks to the enduring power of love in the face of distance and separation, suggesting that, no matter how far apart two people might be, the emotional bond between them can endure.

It's 9,000 miles back to you
Although we are far apart and separated by a long distance of 9,000 miles, I am still drawn to you and remain committed to reconnecting with you.
I still feel like home is in your arms
Even though I am physically distant from the place I call home, being held in your arms feels like home to me because of the warmth, comfort, and security that you provide me.

I just realized the distance from Perth, where they grew up to London, where they were based when making this is 14400km or 9000 miles.
It makes sense now.
