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.

The Other Side
Pendulum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come with us through the gates of hell
Where we'll drag you from where you are
To where you belong
Come on down to the other side
Come with us through the gates of hell
Where we'll drag you from where you are
There's nothing to fear
Your saviors are here
The ship is coming down
The ship is coming down
The ship is coming down
Coming down
Coming down
You, you look so precious
A diamond in the rough
And though you tried to escape
I'll be holding on
Holding on
Holding on
Holding on
But I can't sleep until this is done
They're in my head
They're in my soul
Come on down to the other side
Come with us through the gates of hell
Where we'll drag you from where you are to where you belong
Come on down to the other side
Come with us through the gates of hell
Where we'll drag you from where you are to where you belong
We are in your spirit
We're everywhere you turn
From the cover to the cover
The cover to the cover
To your lover
To your brother
To your mother
To the others
You, You look so precious
But now you've gone away
And I am falling apart
Under the waves
The waves
The waves
The waves
But I can't sleep until this is done
They're in my head
They're in my soul
Through the gates of hell
We know you
The ship is coming down
The ship is coming down
The ship is coming down
The ship is coming down
Coming down
Coming down
Coming down
Coming down
Coming down
Coming down
Coming down
Coming
Down to the other side
Come with us through the gates of hell
Where we'll drag you from where you are to where you belong
Come on down to the other side
Come with us through the gates of hell
Where we'll drag you from where you are to where you belong
The lyrics of Pendulum's song "The Other Side" are quite dark and seem to describe an invitation to descend into a hellish world. The repetition of the lines "Come on down to the other side" and "Come with us through the gates of hell" creates a sense of coercion or pressure to join the singer and his companions on a demonic journey. They promise to "drag you from where you are to where you belong," which could suggest a sense of displacement and a desire for the listener to find a sense of belonging within this shadowy world.
There is a sense throughout the lyrics of the singer having control over the listener, as demonstrated in the lines "And though you tried to escape, I'll be holding on" and "But I can't sleep until this is done. They're in my head, they're in my soul." The use of the word "we" in some of the lines ("We know you," "We're everywhere you turn") suggests that the singer and his companions are a collective force that can't be escaped.
Overall, the lyrics could be interpreted in a number of ways - perhaps as a reflection of addiction or dependence on something negative or dangerous, or alternatively as an exploration of the darker elements of the human psyche and the lure of temptation.
Line by Line Meaning
Come on down to the other side
Join us in the depths of darkness
Come with us through the gates of hell
We'll escort you to the infernal realm
Where we'll drag you from where you are
We'll snatch you from your current reality
To where you belong
You belong with us in the darkness
There's nothing to fear
We are your salvation from the mundane world
Your saviors are here
We are your rescuers from banality
The ship is coming down
The journey to the underworld is imminent
Coming down
The ship is descending to the underworld
You, you look so precious
You are our prey
A diamond in the rough
Your potential to be lost in the darkness is great
And though you tried to escape
You cannot avoid your fate
I'll be holding on
We will never let you go
But I can't sleep until this is done
Our obsession with bringing you to the underworld consumes us
They're in my head
The thoughts of the underworld control us
They're in my soul
The darkness has consumed us
We are in your spirit
We have already infiltrated your being
We're everywhere you turn
We are always present, lurking in the shadows
From the cover to the cover
From beginning to end, every aspect of your life is infiltrated
To your lover
Even your close relationships are tainted
To your brother
Even familial bonds are not safe
To your mother
Even maternal love cannot protect you
To the others
No one is safe or exempt from the pull into the underworld
But now you've gone away
We have lost our grip on you
And I am falling apart
Our obsession with you has consumed us
Under the waves
We are drowning in our obsession
Through the gates of hell
We have an intimate knowledge of the underworld and its pull
We know you
We understand your vulnerabilities and know how to lure you in

This is the cleanest and clearest version I've heard so far, very nice.

I seriously wish they would make a song just out of 4:40 onwards, that funky guitar really gets your adrenaline going.
James D
Try Digital Love by daft punk, there’s some fiendish guitar in that
KasabianFan44
Right? Same thing with Instant Crush by Daft Punk – the staccato-ed synth at the end of that song could have made a song in its own right.
SpiralPegasus
Everywhere I turn, I find a new awesome Pendulum song I hadn't heard.
