not this again.

i wish ppl would stop giving it attention tho. even tho its bad, its still attention. let it die down and fizzle out.

Not into it myself, but something tells me this wouldn't get the same level of criticism if it wasn't Pendulum.

Pendululm used to make killer drum&bass tunes, till they came up with Propane Nightmares.
They even made a drum&bass remix of Coldplay - Violet Hill :?

This one is also a big NO

this isnt' actually any worse than 95% of dubstep. in fact, i find its exemplarity quite funny.

I'm aware it doesn't sound like most dubstep, that's just what pendulum calls it.
Er :lol:

10/10 for correct usage of 'exemplary'.

Read on dogsonacid.. This was told on a festival while Skream & Goldie were hanging out:

Skream: "Pendulum played a dubstep set and it was awful"
Goldie: "Yeah, yeah, shit"


Ouch ! :lol:

the wobble is decent, the beat is ok, the voice sample sucks (but it's their style, definitely). the tune itself is kinda linear (to boring), but it's not THAT bad.
:idea:

Im not gonna hate on this track cus its Pendulum. In fact I like the drums a lot. There are a couple obnoxious little synths in there ...but honestly that would probably go off at a show..

so what are you basically saying that 95% of dubstep is shit?

cos this tune is shit.

I do occasionally hate on Pendulum for making lame over produced clownstep, and generally ruining jungle in the 21st century. However, as others have pointed out this actually sounds a lot better than a lot of Dubstep that makes it on to wax. It's well produced, and the drums are cool....

Pendulum have destroyed everything we hold dear. They are worse than Hitler :roll:

They are starting to lose a bit of respect considering what they are used to doing but it is getting a bit ridiculous.
