Following a blistering show at London’s O2 Arena in March this year, Pendulum have teamed up with hotly-tipped punk hip-hop duo Joey Valence & Brae on their abrasive new single ‘Napalm’. The track is the first new music the band have dropped in 2024 and comes ahead of their unmissable main stage performance on Reading & Leeds Festival main stages this weekend.
A raucous drum and bass floor filler, ‘Napalm’ is Pendulum at their heaviest. Produced by Rob Swire at his London studio the track is raw, infectious and ready made for the festival main stages. Listen to ‘Napalm’ HERE.
Speaking of the collaboration, Rob Swire said, “as soon as I heard their single ‘Punk Tactics’ I knew we had to work together on a heavy DnB track”. Joey Valence & Brae continue “this is such a legendary collab for us. We’ve both been fans of Pendulum and drum and bass in general for so long, so it’s crazy to finally do a track together.”
Undoubtedly one of the biggest electronic bands of all time, Pendulum have 3 platinum albums to their name, including renowned debut Hold Your Colour and a UK #1 and #2 for Immersion and In Silico. The drum and bass/rock band from Perth, Australia have sold over a million albums in the UK alone, as well as selling out global arena tours and playing to thousands across main stage performances from Glastonbury and Download to Reading and Leeds on top of a headline slot at Ultra Miami.
The band returned with their EP Elemental in 2021 along with the comeback of the live band. In 2023 they followed up with their EP Anima, featuring Matt Tuck from Bullet For My Valentine and acclaimed trap metal artist Scarlxrd. The band completed their biggest UK headline tour to date in 2024, including a stop at London’s O2 and with more music slated for 2024/25 the band are back on strong form.
