BIOGRAPHY"Right now, Pendleton are the best skate-punk band in the UK.”
(Punktastic.com)Pendleton, a Melodic Skate Punk band with a Technical Edge from Manchester UK was formed in 2003 to make skate punk music.From the outset their mission was clear: to breathe some life back into the stagnant punk scene that surrounded them. Tired of the shallow ‘Fashion-Core’ culture that had arisen in Manchester, the boys wanted to rediscover the true spirit of punk music, and bring the unity and passion that defined it back into the fray.2006 really saw the band start to make an impact on the UK and international music scenes. After seeing a Pendleton show in Manchester in summer 2006, Rocksound magazine said, “Marrying the force of Rise Against with the playfulness of NOFX but bringing a large streak of originality as well, Pendleton are undeniably a hot prospect. Tearing through a strong set with mach speed and razor precision, songs like Falling Apart to Double Time sound great live... A great show from an exciting new band."
(Rocksound)In July 2006 Pendleton unleashed their first nationwide release ‘You, By Us’ on Distort Manchester Records to critical acclaim. “This EP might just be one of the best skatecore/melodic punk rock records in the last few years. Brilliant."
(MetalOrgie.com)A mammoth 4 week tour of the UK and Ireland followed cementing Pendleton as one of the most exciting live bands around, and ensuring that an ever growing portion of the population was ‘down with P-Town’. The video for their song ‘Falling Apart to Double Time’ became popular on MTV 2’s rotation over the summer and autumn months.Fast forward to the present day and 2007 is looking very bright for Pendleton indeed. With special editions of ‘You, By Us’ to be released in Japan and the USA in the spring and a full length album to follow in the summer, Pendleton fans should not have long to wait for some new material and massive tours planned for the UK, Europe, Japan and the USA.As Big Cheese Magazine said about the boys, "Rocket-Fueled and supersonic, the quartet has taken that classic Cali sound and added a decidedly British slant... Pendleton play punk rock before it became obsessed with haircuts and fashion; when it was true and honest and played with passion."Pendleton intend to take this passion in 2007 and bring it to every disillusioned kid with a neo-mullet. It’s time for a new generation, and Pendleton might just be the ones to usher it in.CLICK HERE TO ORDER 'YOU, BY US'CHECK OUT THE FALLING APART TO DOUBLE TIME VIDEO!

Sounds Like: Epi/Fat Punk Rock with a modern technical edge & a social/political commentaryOld ReviewsIn the space of three songs they left me slack-jawed at just how talented they are. Note perfect vocal harmonies and some sweet-as-a-nut melodies have left me begging for morePendleton are certainly ones to watch very closely.
Punktastic.com"Technical and fast skate punk with awesome guitar work, cutting and satirical socio-political lyrics and ridiculously catchy choruses."
PunkerMentality FanzineThe guys really glow showing brilliant stage presence and well, the songs they have some gems tucked up their sleeves. One of the best bands in Manchester right now in my eyes were blessed to be honest"
MancPunkScene.co.uk"Basically, Pendleton deal in raw, passionate melodic skate punk, with a hardcore edge, somewhere between No Use for a Name, and Rise Against. All three tracks are belters!"
A Short Fanzine About Rocking"their distinctive skate-punk sound is so technical it'll leave you drop-jawed in awe. There's so many time changes and changes in rhythm. To me Pendleton have one of the best singers in UK punk. His voice is suited really well to this kind of music and switches between low melodies to high melodies to distorted semi-screaming in a flash."
PunkScene.co.uk"..the sheer talent of Pendleton, who not only sound absolutely huge on this six-track split, but they sound like one of the most promising EpiFat-type bands the UK has produced in years. And I don't say that lightly."
