Beloved electronic rock band Pendulum has joined forces with Bullet For My Valentine's Matt Tuck for their new single "Halo."
Released yesterday, “Halo” is the first release from Pendulum since their 2021 Elemental EP. An accompanying music video, which can be seen below, was directed by Kristian Young.
Pendulum’s Rob Swire said this about the song, which the band debuted earlier this year at London’s Alexandra Palace:
"When it comes to Pendulum, I’ve always tried to create music that sounds like the apocalypse and with 'Halo', we've gotten closer than ever before. We’ve always had one foot in the metal scene, so collaborating with Matt from BFMV was an incredible experience and his voice brought something completely unique to the table. Ever since I teased it on Instagram, people (even casual fans) have been asking me: 'what's that track where you sing 'It's a halo...?' We're beyond excited to finally get the track out just in time for Download and see people's reactions.'"
“Halo,” which is out on digital services right now, comes before a slew of festival appearances for Pendulum alongside a show with Limp Bizkit. Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets are on sale to the general public right now here.
