I never understood why people are so harsh on Pendulum for trying different kinds of music other than just the straight up DnB of their earlier days. I'm all for a band trying to expand their horizons and try making new kinds of music and exploring new genres. It's like when people started criticizing Ulver when they shifted from Black Metal to Ambient Electronic or when Anathema transitioned from Doom Metal to Progressive Rock. As long as the music is good, it doesn't matter what genre it is to me.
With this in mind, I can fully understand the disappointment for In Silico when that album came out. It was misguidedly approached with a pop and alternative rock vision in mind and the guitar did not fit with the kind of music Pendulum was trying to make. However, Pendulum's new album Immersion has some very outstanding songs and even has some decent Drum and Bass tracks("Salt in the Wounds" and "The Vulture") on it as well. "The Island (Parts 1 and 2)" is a solid dance number, "High on Fire" is an interesting take on dubstep and "Self vs. Self" is a great industrial metal song. Sure there are some weak tracks and 'pop' songs like "Watercolour" but overall, the new album is a great outing for Pendulum IMO.
