[[TooGoodToLast Unfortunately]], Swire announced the indefinite dissolution of Pendulum on his Twitter in June of 2012, claiming that it had become more work than fun. In the mean time, Swire and Gareth Mcgrillen are working on their new {{Dubstep}} and Electro House project, Music/KnifeParty.

** It helps the fact that he made the vocals for the vocal edit of "Ghosts n' Stuff".

* AlienInvasion: "Granite" is about one...that ''[[EndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt succeeds]]''.



* MindControl: "The Other Side" is about breaking from this, complete with verses [[CreepyMonotone intoned]] from a VoiceOfTheLegion alternating with a very distraught Swire singing "...they're in my head, they're in my soul".

* TakeThat: "Show Down", which is an attack at the "fans" who labeled them sell-outs for dropping their traditional Drum And Bass sound in favour of a more sophisticated electro-rock one.

Just some errors I noticed, and I maybe wrong with the type of trope in which I attributed to Perry.

* BlackSheepHit: In the United States, Hold Your Colour is probably their most well-known album, despite being very different stylistically to their other albums. Pretty much averted everywhere else though.
** "The Island" is also this for the entire band, being a House song.

* ShrinkingViolet: Watch Rob Swire closely in any interview that isn't just him. He very rarely actually says anything or looks at the camera. In fact, he is so quiet and shy that fans go nuts any time they come across him actually making ''complete sentences'' in an interview. [[PerpetualFrowner Or]] [[WhenSheSmiles smiles]].

What followed was an album, ''Hold Your Colour'', said to have changed the face of drum and bass. And [[BeyondTheImpossible then]] they got [[NewSoundAlbum inventive]].

* MissingEpisode Averted with "Ransom". Originally slated for release on "Immersion", it was partially previewed and became a fan favorite, but was dropped for the final release due to the band believing it didn't fit with the sound of the album and "got boring after the intro". It appeared to be LostForever due to the final version's project files being corrupted, but eventually reached the light of day as it was released as a charity single in April 2011 to benefit earthquake aid appeal for Japan.
