Ear Storm/Atlantic Records recording group Pendulum has unveiled details of their eagerly awaited “Tour of the Americas.” The North American leg of the bi-continental trek will kick off on October 1st at Boston’s Middle East. The tour, the band’s first ever on American shores, will conclude with a CMJ Music Marathon showcase at New York City’s Bowery Ballroom on October 26th. Tickets are scheduled to go on sale on Friday, August 15.
Already a sensation in the UK and the band’s native Australia, Pendulum’s North American debut album, “IN SILICO,” is quickly causing a commotion here in the U.S. The Perth-based outfit has been winning fervent fans everywhere for their hard-edged amalgamation of big beats, massive guitars, and powerhouse hooks, resulting in the album’s #2 chart debut in the UK upon its release earlier this year and subsequent gold certification after only four weeks.
“Propane Nightmares,” the dynamic first single from “IN SILICO,” will ship to College/Specialty radio later this month, and then hit multi-format commercial rock outlets in September. Influential DJ/music director Aaron Axelson has been supporting “Propane Nightmares” on Soundcheck, his weekly radio show which airs on tastemaker station Live 105 (KITS-FM) in San Francisco – he raves, “…the song generates a SICK reaction with every spin.” The track is already a proven smash in the UK, where it reached the Top 10 on the singles chart and was one of Radio 1’s most played songs of the year. “Propane Nightmares” is currently nominated for “Best Single” at the venerable Kerrang! Awards.
The companion video clip to “Propane Nightmares” topped the MTV Europe charts and was recently a MySpace Featured Video Exclusive in the U.S. The video can be currently viewed at the band’s own You Tube channel.
What’s more, the “IN SILICO” track, “Mutiny,” is now featured in Verizon Wireless’ national television ad campaign to promote their LG Dare phone.
