Pendulum have stormed into the UK album charts at Number Two with their major label debut In Silico. The Ausie dance rockers, who were Number One in the mid-week charts, were kept off the top spot by Neil Diamond.

Iron Maiden have also scored a Top 20 hit with their latest Best Of... package Somewhere Back In Time.

Death Cab For Cutie are new in at 24 with Narrow Stairs, while Nickelback are still in the album charts with All The Right Reasons slipping from 18 to 25.

So now as well as turning into Heat magazine, Kerrang has now become the new chart show.

So, a drum and bass act are in the charts. So fucking what?

Let the rave scum celebrate. Neil Diamond is heavier.

And fair play to Maiden on managing to chart with yet another cash in collection.

Dudes, Pendulum are rockers at heart.

Many of their songs contain guitar riffs, their 'live' set-up shows attract alot of Rockers due to the heaviness and power of the shows.

Linkin Park incorporate Dance and Hip Hop elements in their songs. It's a similar principal.

You guys should check out some live video's on YouTube before slagging them down!

As awesome as they are, they are drum & bass. NOT rock. I forgot K! were all about the label.

Tell me how, exactly, rave music can be confused with metal??
