Pendulum announce first album in 15 years, drop ear-splitting screamo song Save The Cat
Pendulum have announced their first studio album in 15 years, 'Inertia'. Set to land on August 22, the 16-track LP includes the new single, 'Save The Cat', an ear-splitting screamo number. Frontman Rob Swire said of the song: "It was written during a period of self-questioning and frustration. 'Love felt like something I didn't fully trust myself with anymore.' As per a press release: "Inertia is a rampaging, 16-track emotional maelstrom and without doubt the band's most personal work to date." The star-studded collection features members of Bullet For My Valentine, Wargasm, AWOLNATION, Scarlxrd, Joey Valence + Brae and Hybrid Minds. The track 'Halo' featuring Matt Tuck from heavy metal band Bullet For My Valentine was previously released on 2023's 'Anima' EP. Other available tracks include 'Nothing For Free', 'Louder Than Words' with drum and bass stars Hybrid Minds, 'Colourfast', and 'Napalm' with Joey Valence and Brae. Rob also shared how The Prodigy have always inspired the dance-rock band to experiment with "how far we could push Pendulum". He explained: 'I was basically testing how far we could push Pendulum. Seeing what we could get away with. I always looked at The Prodigy as the benchmark. They started out as pure rave - breakbeat, hardcore - but they evolved. They became their own sound. You don't even really associate them with breakbeat anymore. They just are The Prodigy.' The follow-up to their chart-topping 2010 LP 'Immersion' is a breakup album. Rob said: 'It's the sound of Pendulum finding themselves again, and me figuring myself out to a certain extent. 'Breakups do that - they strip things down and show you who you are. I'm just trying not to become the guy who needs to go through one just to make a record.' The 'Propane Nightmares' rockers have a slew of live dates this summer, including a huge gig at Milton Keynes Bowl on August 9. Head to to check out where they are playing. 'Inertia' tracklisting: 1.

Trivium slam Bullet For My Valentine as Matt Tuck pulls plug on co-headline tour early
Trivium's bassist Paolo Gregoletto has accused Bullet For My Valentine frontman Matt Tuck of having "no respect for us or our crew" after he pulled out of their joint tour early. The two bands have played across Europe and North America in celebration of the 20th anniversaries of their 2005 albums 'The Poison' and 'Ascendancy'. They were due to head to Australia and South America after they wrap the North American leg, but according to Trivium, Matt no longer wants to do it. During a TikTok Live, Paolo said: 'Matt Tuck didn't want to do it, after we had planned it, after stuff was already in the works – don't know why. I think it would have been amazing. I think The Poison is a great album. I think the two records pair very well together. And I think it would have been nice to give everyone around the world a chance to see the two together.' In another TikTok, he captioned the clip: 'When you make your first TikTok live and p*** off the other band you are on tour with… #JusticeForSouthAmerica'. One person commented suggested they should have dealt with the situation in private, Gregoletto replied: 'He's the sole decision maker of the band and he has no respect for us or our crew.' Trivium frontman Matt Heafy told Metal Hammer of the joint tour: "For [BFMV frontman Matt Tuck] and I, these records in 2005 changed our lives. But we were only really able to see the impact 10, 15, 20 years later. "A lot of the coolest metal bands that I love these days, I'll talk to them and they'll, say, 'Trivium was my first live band I ever saw'. OR they'll say 'Ascendancy' or 'The Poison' was their first record. That's so cool." Heafy added: "It almost feels like a once in a lifetime experience. A five-year or 10-year anniversary, that's cool. "But we knew we wanted to really hold on to this. 'We've never done anything like it, so let's wait for 20 years.' It's something special for sure."
