Pendulum may have risen quietly but after last night’s first of two Brixton Academy sell-outs, they are going to make a lot of noise about it.
To the delight of their fanatical young audience, they are a pounding, floor-quaking, skull-splitting hotch-potch: a Prodigy too earnest to smack anybody’s bitch up; the stadium house successors to The KLF and, when the Pendulum swung towards the less frenetic, as they did on The Other Side, as cool as Robert Miles.
Unsurprisingly, they had a reclusive, Liam Howlett-esque mastermind, in this case Rob Swire, who juggled occasional flat vocals with fabulously stentorian keyboards and meek guitar. He spoke only to mumble that The Tempest was making its live debut.
Instead, these near-silent Australians employed the very British Ben Verse as super-earnest MC, who shouted random nonsense as and when the mood took him.
The results were often funny, always exciting and at various points, especially the heroic Propane Nightmares, edge-of-seat thrilling.
