to reiterate, pendulum is moronic shit with shitty drum sounds and corny synths that sound like they're using presets from a microkorg, and is basically the dnb equivelant of albums like 'celtic trance anthems' with 'nn-tss nn-tss' mixes of Flower Of Scotland and stuff, yet somehow credible to the masses

You guys are stuck in the past, the sound of DnB is evolving, think of it like when Bob Dylan started using electric guitars.

It's called clownstep because it puts the image of a dancing clown in your head, which is different to what "DnB heads" want, or are used to. It's still good DnB, nae luck if they're defacing the image of your beloved genre.

I've yet to see anyone mention a better artist of the same style as Pendulum, it seems that's because nobody can do it as well as they do.

Someone is playing Pendulum on the Uni radio right now. It's shit. I've never heard bass sound so spasticated.

It puts images in my head of neo-nazis bumping around against each other in a barn somewhere.

That or the Priory in an adventurous moment. Same thing really. It doesn't sound like any other DnB I've heard, in that the beats seem far less busy.

I'm certainly no connoisseur of drum and bass and possibly fall into the 'lowest common denominator pillhead dancefloor pish' bracket that was refered to previously but I do like Andy C's mixes. As for Pendulum I like a few of their tracks but the album isn't that great. I like 'The Qemists' as well.

that's because it's one beat, looped for 5 minutes, there is no thought into it, and the drums sound like stock midi samples that you find on a yamaha school music department keyboard

edit, this was a reply to kimy

You have no idea what you're talking about and how utterly ridiculous you sound coming out with that uninformed pish.

Me. I'm one of those too.

I really like UK Apache. This can't be cool, surely? (But better than Pendulum?)

this is a classic, pendulum can't touch this in terms of pure finesse!
