ALBUM

Title of Record (1999)

Filter's second album came out on Reprise Records and peaked at number 30 on the Billboard 200, going on to sell over a million copies in the US. Recording was slow going at first because of lineup shuffles and Patrick building his own studio, but the finished record became the band's commercial and critical high point.

Artist

Filter

Filter is an American rock band from Cleveland, Ohio, built around singer and guitarist Richard Patrick, who left Nine Inch Nails before starting the project in 1993. The band works in industrial rock, post-grunge, and alternative metal, and Patrick has remained the one constant member through a long series of lineup changes. Their sound leans on distorted guitars, electronic textures, and Patrick's melodic but often raw vocals.
