LateRooms.com - Pendulum Set to Rock Munich

    MUNICH, GERMANY, September 01, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Music fans staying in Munich hotels can see drum'n'bass titans Pendulum play live in the city next month.

The Australian group, who have enjoyed considerable chart success with their fusion of heavy rock and electronic dancefloor sounds in recent years, are set to perform at Backstage Werk on Sunday September 26th.

Formed in Perth in 2002, the band released their debut album Hold Your Colour in 2005.

Although that record largely conformed to the traditional drum'n'bass template, Pendulum began to experiment with a more rock-orientated sound with 2008's In Silico.

The album saw Rob Swire come to the fore as a vocalist and featured the hit Propane Nightmares, which reached number nine in the UK singles chart.

Album number three, Immersion, was released earlier this year and saw the group continue to develop their sound.

Featuring collaborations with The Prodigy's Liam Howlett and Swedish heavy metal band In Flames, the record was described by BBC critic Mike Diver as "their best album yet".

The reviewer commented: "It offers more rock and more dance, but most importantly more fun. And when it's good, it's very good indeed."

As well as their acclaimed recorded output, Pendulum are known for their highly energetic and atmospheric live shows - something that fans in Munich can now look forward to.

The group have become a favourite of festival crowds in the UK, having performed at Glastonbury in 2009.

People heading to the Munich concert should expect to hear songs spanning the group's entire career, with the possibility of early tracks such as Vault and Another Planet featuring in the set.

Tickets for their gig at Backstage Werk are available online, priced at EUR24 (GBP19.70).
