Pendulum <\/a>are officially back in album mode.<\/p>\n

The iconic electronic-rock outfit announced this week that their long-awaited fourth album, INERTIA<\/em>, will drop on August 22nd, marking their first full-length release in 15 years. They also revealed the album’s tracklist.<\/p>\n

The news is accompanied by the release of “Save The Cat,” the album’s blistering lead single. In classic Pendulum fashion, the track delivers a high-octane fusion of drum & bass, metal and emotionally charged vocals from frontman Rob Swire, whose scream-laced performance is backed by thunderous drums and cinematic synths.<\/p>\n

Swire said the the track was written “during a period of self-questioning and frustration” following two breakups.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s the sound of Pendulum finding themselves again, and me figuring myself out to a certain extent,” he said in a press release. “Breakups do that\u2014they strip things down and show you who you are. I\u2019m just trying not to become the guy who needs to go through one just to make a record.”<\/p>\n
