Amazon.co.uk Review:
In Silico might be the second album from Pendulum, but it's their first as a fully-fledged rock band. Of course, this Australian dance collective have paddled in these waters before: their debut album Hold Your Colour was a muscular collection of hard drum'n'bass and slamming breakbeats that, for all its synthetic construction, displayed firmly rock sensibilities. On In Silico, though, hard-riffing guitars are pulled right up in the mix, and the band's production core, Rob Swire and Gareth McGrillen, lead from the front, reaching for the microphone and making clattering loops the bedrock for a suite of anthemic rockers. Comparisons to the likes of Enter Shikari and The Prodigy are not too wide of the mark, capturing something of Pendulum's fairground waltzer adrenaline and polished, metallic aggression. Beyond straightforward rush, though, some interesting ingredients find their way into the brew: storming opener "Slowdown" imagines an unholy synthesis of DJ Hype and Muse in full progressive rock-out mode, while the elegiac "Propane Nightmares" commences with a Mariachi trumpet serenade. Dance connoisseurs will probably complain Pendulum's beats lack a certain finesse, but if you like your dance music a) fast and b) hard then In Silico has all bases covered. --Louis Pattison

- New fan for this genre!
Let me start by saying that I have never been a fan of any form of dance music: in any way whatsoever!
I saw these guys perform Granite live on Jools Holland, and they blew me away though. I genuinely believed them to be a guitar driven rock band: so to discover that they are D&B is quite a suprise.
That said, I bought this album to find out how good their other stuff was, and it did not disappoint! Thunderous guitar riffs fused with heavy electronica, and synth fed voices create a wall ... Read More

- In what? who cares
Not a pendulum fan? neither was i really, but i decided to buy the album because i'd never listened to there music properly. depending on the mood, this is why 4 not 5 stars, all the songs in this great album will get you moving some part of your body to. recommended!

- Not the "crossover" everyone makes it out to be
Firstly, maybe I should explain where I'm coming from in writing this review. I'm a true junglist and an avid Pendulum fan, I have been since I first heard "Spiral" all those years ago. I watched them make 2 years of great records before they finally dropped "Hold Your Colour" in our laps. Needless to say it was sensational. I love every single track on that album and it remains today one of my all-time favourites. So when I caught word of a new Pendulum LP in the making, I immediately had high hopes ... Read More
Rating: - The Cheesiest Dance/Rock Album... Ever!
The same Big Beat drumming over the course of all 10 tracks...check.
Vocals taken from the Cher 'I Believe' hall of shame...check.
Lyrics that make 'Firestarter' sound like a deep statement...check.
Sound effects from the Scooter pro tools set...check.
...and we are ready to roll! Prepare to unleash hell!!
The thing is - occasionally we all like to inflict a little pain on ourselves and I can't believe I'm saying this... 'In Silico' can ... Read More
Rating: - The Worlds Finest
Im not a massive fan of drum n bass and dont think i ever will be but 'In Silico' has certainly drawn me in and made me think twice. I constantly listened to Radio 1 talking about how great Pendulum were so i thought i had to listen for myself and see if they were all they were cracked up to be!!
They certainly didnt disappoint!
I only brought this album at the weekend and it has been playing on my car radio ever since. 'Propane Nightmares' is probably the stand out track on ... Read More
