After half a decade without new music, Knife Party is sharpening its blades.
The iconic electronic music duo, consisting of Pendulum members Rob Swire and Gareth McGrillen, this week unveiled their first new original music in over five years. Knife Party's last record was in July 2019, when they released the dazzling Lost souls PE.
Ready to reach deep into the hearts and minds of fans, it seems Swire and McGrillen are ready to remind us all why they earned their name. The duo took to X to reveal they are working on new bass music by sharing a meme featuring viral Turkish shooter Yusuf Dikeç, whose casual nonchalance with his gun has captivated viewers of the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics.
“Cooking knife party…” reads the post.
Despite a five-year hiatus, Knife Party remains one of the most influential electronic music acts in the world. From the cyber-paranoia of “Internet Friends” to the incendiary “Bonfire,” the duo’s innovative fusion of electro house and dubstep has redefined the boundaries of the genre for over two decades and inspired a new generation of music producers.
It's important to note that Swire and McGrillen have not formally announced the release of new Knife Party music at the time of writing. Check out their post below.
