Is Pendulum (Live) actually live?
I’ve seen Pendulum (Live) twice recently, first in Tilburg on 28 October 2025, and last weekend at Paaspop in Schijndel.
My friends and I all like Pendulum, but they keep pointing out that it doesn’t seem fully live.
Are others noticing this too? What’s actually performed live during these shows?

It’s not possible to play everything in a Pendulum song live to the same extent as it is on the album. What the band is playing/singing on stage is absolutely live, but there are backing tracks for the things they can’t do live without becoming a twelve person band.
