One of those reviewers also confirmed it in the thread that night, if I remember rightly. I'm forgetting names.

I sort of hope it is Swallowed Whole. Fiddle kind of makes me wet.

I thought multiple people confirmed that they didn't hear that instrumental part during the listening party. If that is actually part of the song I'm way more excited now.

I think a few werent sure but a couple recent reviews noted it was actually part of pendelum.
Kick ass. Seriously that makes my day.

Does anyone here have the chops to edit this down to just "I feel like a lightning bolt just hit the tip of my penis" part? If not I'll get to it this weekend. It will be useful...

Edit -
Sorry wrong video

Just so I don't get even more behind...

I thought Pendulum was the song in the soundcheck for London? No? If not..did someone recognize that as a song on the album??

Are there any suggestions as to how we can liven up this thread for the next five or so weeks?

Complaining about boring posters in this thread is kind of like complaining about boring music in a Jack Johnson gig.

The London soundcheck song is Infallible. Pendulum is the 2013 tour video music.

Apparently so. Sward, read the reviews thread, it should answer most of your questions in the absence of Brendan O'Brien.

I wasn't complaining about boring posters. I just meant follow spenno's lead by not posting 50 pages a day about the same stuff every 3 pages.

Maybe we could lock/pause the thread until there is actual news. Then, when news occurs (listening party review, new video, new single, Brendan sex tape), unleash the hounds.

Meanwhile, create a separate thread for stuff and nonsense and lolcats.

There's enough people posting and responding to people asking if there is any new news, right? I mean, I'm finding this thread to be rather fun. I get that it's hard to keep up. though.
