The lead singer is Richard Patrick. Fun fact is that he is the younger brother of Robert Patrick, the actor most famous for playing the T1000 in Terminator 2.
That's so funny everytime I tried to remember his name I'd get his name right but thought of Robert. Had no idea they were brothers but it makes sense now.
I saw Bud Dwyer, who this song is about, commit suicide on live TV when I came home school in January 1987 when I was 16 years old. It started snowing that day, and we got sent home from school early. I happened to have 7th period lunch that year, and I got out of school super early, so I was walking through the front door as he pulled the gun from the envelope he had in his hand, telling people to leave. Channel 6 in Philadelphia filmed the entire thing, and I will never forget it as long as I live. It was insane. You guys take care 🙂
The genre for this music is actually "industrial" and not grunge. It does have hard, aggressive sounds, but they have more of an atmosphere to them (additional sounds that can tones that are eerie, provocative, unusual.) Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson are probably the most recognizable of them but Filter and Stabbing Westward are my favorites. Stabbing Westward's "Save Yourself", "What Do I Have To Do?", and "Shame" would be awesome for reactions. For Filter songs, "Take A Picture" (which actually has a calm/peaceful vibe in the verses), "Welcome To The Fold", "Trip Like I Do", and "Under" are great ones to try.
They definitely need to listen to some Stabbing Westward, and more industrial in general. "Save Yourself" is probably my favorite, closely followed by "The Thing I Hate" and "Slipping Away".
Here’s why I love reaction channels. I completely thought about Stabbing Westward “Save Yourself” I will drop a 100x for that suggestion! As a Tool fan, want some anger? Try Tools “AEnema (with lyrics)” and “Hooker with a Pe*n*s (with lyrics). BUT - please do Stabbing Westward. It will NOT disappoint.
If you're liking this vibe you'll like "Stabbing Westward", try the song Save Yourself. Also the band "Helmet" goes hard af, try the songs Unsung, Milquetoast, Wilma's Rainbow.
The lead singer is Richard Patrick. He is the brother of actor Robert Patrick (scary T1000 cop from T2). He has also been a touring guitarist for Nine Inch Nails. Super talented and a lot of great songs from Filter.
One of the best things about Richard Patrick's vocals is how they can go from hard and heavy in this song to worlds softer in Take a Picture and every lyrics out of his mouth just sounds awesome
Yeah I mean, to be fair, it's kind of a lighter version though of industrial metal though. It's not like Ministry, Nine Inch Nails, or Marilyn Manson. But I mean it works. :)
A fun fact id heard about this song is that when the lead singer was the guitarist for Nine Inch Nails he presented this song to Trent Reznor and he didnt want nothing to do with it, hence why it became Filters big hit
right...part of that story is that Patrick was in NIN and wanted more money for his participation in the band and Reznor said "go get a job delivering pizzas" and thus propelled him to start Filter :)
some other great songs in a similar style are "Tomorrow" by Silverchair and the band "Puddle of Mudd" has "Blurry" and "Control" also "Psycho" and "she hates me" were popular also. the band Chevelle - "The Red" is another one
This was the first concert I've ever went to. I was in 9th grade and they played on New Years Eve. They waited just right before midnight to come out and counted down. WAS AWESOME!
In the movie "Hired Gun," Richard Patrick talks about playing in Nine Inch Nails and basically being told by Trent Reznor that if you want to make serious money in the music business, come up with your own shit. That's what mentoring is all about - tough conversations and honesty. Filter has a really great catalog of music. Keep exploring. By the way - this is not grunge; it's industrial metal.
You know, when I first started watching this channel, I never thought you guys would've been rocking out to songs like this. Bands like Filter, Nine Inch Nails, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, & Nirvana were my go to music in high school & beyond. It's been a trip seeing you two go from from newbies to headbangers.
Hey y'all! I love your channel and my new hubby is digging on it too! He commented to me that he's so happy to see you both doing this and reaching the younger generations...we're in our 50's and 60's. We love rock! We love music. Thank you SO much for what you do -- it's awesome! There's so much out there to explore - you can keep going and going! Please please do!
There were many bands during this period that mined the same kind of alternative/lite-Industrial sound. Stabbing Westward, Machines of Loving Grace, God Lives Underwater, Gravity Kills, and a bunch more. The 90's was a killer time for different sounds to break through.
Straight out of Cleveland, baby! These guys were in Nine Inch Nails and Trent Reznor (also from Northeast Ohio) produced this album for them, in a little studio in Rocky River, Ohio.🎸
Fun fact gravity kills did a song with Moby for spawn soundtrack that also has filter and the crystal method. Though Moby disliked the song he did with gravity kills and it went unreleased. The song was called suffocating. Pretty good song and it is on UA-cam somewhere.
This album, "Short Bus" was an unexpected success. I remember record stores completely selling out of stock and having to wait for a while for more cds to be made. Also, the band mentioned as 3-1-1 at the beginning of the video is pronounced three eleven😉 Thanks for reacting to Filter. Awesome song.
This song is about R. Budd Dwyer. He was a the state treasurer for Pennsylvania. He committed suicide on live television. He did it to protect his family, because it is believed he was an innocent man and was being thrown under the bus. His suicide prevented a lot of bad things from happening to his wife and kids. Here is part of what he said right before committing suicide. "I thank the good Lord for giving me 47 years of exciting challenges, stimulating experiences, many happy occasions and most of all the finest wife and children any man could ever desire. Now my life has changed for no apparent reason. People who call and write are exasperated and feel helpless. They know I am innocent and want to help, but in this nation, the worlds [sic] greatest democracy, there is nothing they can do to prevent me from being punished for a crime they know I did not commit. Some who have called have said that I am a modern day Job."
The first time I saw Nine Inch Nails, on the very first Lollapalooza tour, Rich Patrick was still the guitarist. He definitely picked up some moves and influence from Trent Reznor but he was also able to create his own unique sound in the process. That first Lollapalooza was a weird one for the Nails. They were just getting a buzz on MTV from "Head Like A Hole", but they were still small enough to get slotted in the mid-afternoon slot so the whole band was mostly obscured by their smoke machines and their light show had no effect in the blazing North Carolina Summer sun. That tour included Henry Rollins, The Butthole Surfers, Ice-T and Body Count, Living Colour, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and closing act Jane's Addiction (whose lead singer Perry farrell created Lollapalooza). What a wild lineup back when no one even thought of putting hip hop, industrial, and hard rock bands on the same bill.
Wow, I haven't heard that in so long! It came out when I was in my late 20's and I loved it. I think I saw it on MTV originally. But later I bought the CD and would crank it up now and then.
Song isn't grunge. It's Nu Metal. Richard Patrick is the lead singer. They've got a lot of great songs, and it was great in 2018 after a 21-year hiatus for the band to get back together and turn out new music. They released a couple of songs through UA-cam in 2023. If you want bands similar to Filter, check out Sevendust, Dark New Day, Life of Agony, Big Wreck, Stereomud, Finger Eleven, and Dropbox!
Hi, jet lag John here again since returning from the states. New artist in Slade crying out to be played, mama we’er all crazy now which was a No1 hit in the 70’s or and 80’s hit Run Run Away which was their biggest hit in the states
This song is for Amber, you said you are a country girl at heart. If you don't pick this song, listen to it. The song is called " Wear the sun in your heart/Maybe". The artist is Thom Pace, the song is the theme song to a tv show in the 1970's called "The life and times of Grizzly Adams". I read the comments, and people say it still brings tears to their eyes. The show is about a man in the 1800s, escapes to the wilderness after being accused of murder.
Great reaction and commentary on this legendary song, and, as has been already suggested, you should also do the song, "Take A Picture", also by Filter, which shows a different, but equally impressive, side to them, including amazingly soulful and touching vocals. Btw, I recommend doing the longer version of that song, the one that's just over 6 minutes instead of the shorter one.
Their album Short Bus (that this song is on) is incredible. The song is about R. Budd Dwyer, a treasurer from Pennsylvania who was accused of bribery, who unlived himself on national television. He was actually innocent. But when he shot himself on January 22nd 1987 at exactly 10 am (11 am EST), kids had a day off from school and saw it happen.
Filter is essentially 1 guy (like Nine Inch Nails) - Richard Patrick, who was actually the guitarist of Nine Inch Nails until around 1993 (?) when he quit after Patrick alleged that NIN's Trent Reznor refused to pay him and suggested he "deliver pizzas for extra money"... Richard Patrick wrote and recorded the debut Filter album 'Short bus' w/ Brian Liesgang (co-producer) and it became a platinum hit in 1995 in the industrial rock era. Other tracks from the album - 'Under' ... and 'Dose'. Filter parted ways w/ Brian Liesgang and released their 2nd album 'Title of Record' in 1999... another platinum hit w/ the songs - 'Welcome to the fold' ... 'The best things' ... 'Take a picture'... 🔥🔥🤘🤘 3rd album 'The Amalgamut' was released in 2002 but was not as successful in the post-90's era... despite the strong single "Where do we go from here"... 🔥🔥 Despite Filter declining in commercial popularity, Richard Patrick has continued recording Filter albums - 'Anthems for the damned' in 2008... 'The trouble with angels' (2010) ... 'The sun comes out tonight' (2013)... 'Crazy eyes' (2016) ... and 'The Algorithm' (2023) Richard Patrick says he also works scoring films and movies and that is his main income source... He still tours w/ Filter on a regular basis.
Filter is truly underrated like so many other bands. Amber’s amazing how she described the song without knowing the words and the horrific story behind the song.
First of all, new subscriber. Love your energy! Lot of fun to watch. I saw these guys live at Endfest 3 back in the day. They were awesome. Got 2 quick suggestions: 5FDP, Wrong side of heaven. Song is good, but it is next to impossible to watch the video without shedding a couple of tears. And, Avenged Sevenfold, the beast and the harlot. They get a lot of their lyrics from the Bible and it's an interesting twist. Thanks for the entertainment and I'll keep watching.
I saw Filter at a free poolside concert in Las Vegas 10+ years ago. I knew this and Take A Picture. The latter of which I know from the DVD of my first skydive. Great songs and great memories.
YES! YES! YES! I am once again happy that you guys are listening to a favorite band of mine! Love you guys and keep em coming. If you love heavy stuff, DEFINITELY check out Korn and Limp Bizkit!!!
Hey, you two! Great reaction. First and foremost, the genre this song usually falls under is Industrial or Post-Industrial. The lead singer, Richard Patrick, used to play lead guitar in Nine Inch Nails before branching out on his own and forming Filter. Now, the original video for this particular song was taboo on MTV when it first came out. The song was written about the public suicide of Pennsylvania state treasurer R. Budd Dwyer on January 22, 1987, in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Dwyer had been convicted of bribery charges in December 1986, and was expected to receive a lengthy sentence from U.S. District Court Judge Malcolm Muir. Professing his innocence and decrying the legal system, Dwyer shot and killed himself with a .357 Magnum revolver during a live televised press conference. Something you can't shake out of your head once you've seen it. Quite heartbreaking actually. The guitar line in the chorus was previously used in the Stabbing Westward song "Ungod" in 1994. Stuart Zechman, who was also playing guitar for Stabbing Westward at the time, took the riff and showed it to Stabbing Westward, who ended up using it also. Quite the popular song back in the 90s, it's been featured in several films. And if this is your first time listening to Filter, you need to checkout "Take a Picture" from their second album. A complete departure from what you've just heard. At the end of the 90s, Filter went off to embrace the Alternative scene for a little bit.
I was so excited to see you all reacted to this, I haven't heard this song in forever, but as far as the intro, you say it like "three eleven" not three, one, one, so thankful I was her for you (I'm teasing you). I love you both, but Amber was going hard and I love you for it. your reactions, your rhythm and dancing to the music is authentic and infectious.
I remember around St. Louis, this was used as kind of a theme song for the McGuire/Sosa home run race back in 98. One of the radio stations spliced in game audio to make it unique for McGuire.
Richard, Patrick is the lead singer in the most awesome person I've ever met. He struggled with addiction but he was hyper intelligent and a very nice good person. He came down off the stage. He seemed how much I liked filter and it was right before he passed away. They were performing with buckcherry and he came down off the stage and grabbed my phone and started singing with my ex-girlfriend and I and it was such a memorable experience and then I got to talk to him offstage afterward. I didn't have special tickets. It was general admission. He just seen how much I liked filter and this wasn't but maybe 8 years ago or so. But yeah that song's about a guy who shot himself live on TV. He's the reason why we don't have live TV anymore actually, but the reason he did it was because of the pressure he was experiencing because he was doing the right thing and they were railroading him and he killed himself because of it. On live TV. But yeah, this is one of the most monumental songs in rock history that most people don't understand. But Richard Patrick was an amazing person. And obviously a phenomenal vocalist
This is a SUPER dark song! My favorite performance of this is when the band was performing live during a fashion show on MTV!! The lead singer was belting it out 3 to 4 feet from models walking the runway, trying to act like nothing was strange, haha! Another good one, less dark but more angsty, is "Take A Picture".
“Welcome to The Fold” will blow you away. Give it a listen. If you do, grab a hold of something before pressing the play button, cause it punches you right from the start.
I requested you guys to play this band and 311 for a while NOW... BOTH groups are amazing.... can't wait until you dig into the rest of their catalogue. Thank you!
Big fan of you guys! I’m a fellow Oklahoman myself so it’s nice to see you guys succeeding. Filter-Take a picture is one of my favorite songs to date. Would love to see a reaction because it’s a totally different style of music. Keep up the good work!
Filter - Take My Picture, will Surprise you guys after hearing this song you won't think it's the same band!!!
Agreed 💯
I was thinking the same thing
Legit ... so shocking
I heart filter
Their best song is welcome to the fold
That bass is so sick throughout the whole song, especially during the chorus.
The lead singer is Richard Patrick. Fun fact is that he is the younger brother of Robert Patrick, the actor most famous for playing the T1000 in Terminator 2.
Saw them in 2015 with CombiChrist and American Headcharge as the openers! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
I actually learned that the other day and was fascinated to hear it
He was also in the last couple of seasons of The X Files.
That's so funny everytime I tried to remember his name I'd get his name right but thought of Robert. Had no idea they were brothers but it makes sense now.
And also a former member of Nine Inch Nails
Amber is so perceptive at breaking down music. She really gets it.
And movies...
...We love you too Rob!! : )
Amber gets evry thing she is so quick
Filter had a collaboration with The Crystal Method with a song called "(Can’t You) Trip Like I Do" for the the Spawn movie soundtrack
Such a great song! I fucking love the Spawn Soundtrack!!!
Fantastic song!
That is a fantastic track. The soundtrack was amazing...........the movie notsomuch 😅
I’ve told them to do some techno!! Like Underworld, Chemical Brothers, Crystal Method, Fatboy Slim, Basement Jaxx, Massive Attack, stuff like that
@@reaganwhite7807The movie was kickass!! What are you talking about??
I saw Bud Dwyer, who this song is about, commit suicide on live TV when I came home school in January 1987 when I was 16 years old.

I'm pretty sure it's still on UA-cam.
@@BROU-bb2uc it probably is. I personally never looked for it; it was a terrible sight to witness and once is enough for me. You take care 🙂
I can't remember where I saw the whole video, but that image sticks in my head to this day
Me 2. Lived in Philly, I was 19 & like WTF?
So sorry that you went through that. I’m not surprised it has stuck with you. ❤️
Look up the back story to this song. It's about Pennsylvania state treasurer Bud Dwyer killing himself on stage at a press conference
And it was broadcast live on local tv. You can actually still see the videos of the press conference.
I knew the song but never knew that fact until I watched another channel react to this some months back.
I was about to post the same thing. I think he killed himself because he was under investigation and knew he wouldn't get away from what he had done.
Crazy thing my brother in law watched it live when he was a kid . It messed him up for like a month
crimes against children.. nothing of value was lost, the sentment of this song.
**New artist alert: P.O.D. 'Youth of the Nation ' . I 1000% guarantee you'll both wonder what took you so long to discover this gem of a band.
100% agree!
Execute the Sounds
The genre for this music is actually "industrial" and not grunge. It does have hard, aggressive sounds, but they have more of an atmosphere to them (additional sounds that can tones that are eerie, provocative, unusual.) Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson are probably the most recognizable of them but Filter and Stabbing Westward are my favorites. Stabbing Westward's "Save Yourself", "What Do I Have To Do?", and "Shame" would be awesome for reactions. For Filter songs, "Take A Picture" (which actually has a calm/peaceful vibe in the verses), "Welcome To The Fold", "Trip Like I Do", and "Under" are great ones to try.
They definitely need to listen to some Stabbing Westward, and more industrial in general. "Save Yourself" is probably my favorite, closely followed by "The Thing I Hate" and "Slipping Away".
Not even close to Industrial. It’s Metal.
Here’s why I love reaction channels. I completely thought about Stabbing Westward “Save Yourself”
I will drop a 100x for that suggestion!
As a Tool fan, want some anger? Try Tools “AEnema (with lyrics)” and “Hooker with a Pe*n*s (with lyrics).
BUT - please do Stabbing Westward. It will NOT disappoint.
There’s nothing metal about this song.
Ministry
If you're liking this vibe you'll like "Stabbing Westward", try the song Save Yourself. Also the band "Helmet" goes hard af, try the songs Unsung, Milquetoast, Wilma's Rainbow.
Yes, Helmet please !
Both of them!
I came to say stabbing westward - save yourself as well
Waking up beside you
Man I totally forgot about Stabbing Westward. I remember that song was in an anime back in the day. I wanna say Tekken or Street Fighter.
The lead singer is Richard Patrick. He is the brother of actor Robert Patrick (scary T1000 cop from T2). He has also been a touring guitarist for Nine Inch Nails. Super talented and a lot of great songs from Filter.
Robert Patrick was John Doggett on the X Files
@@SquirminHermanthe1eyedGerman He's also the really bad guy in season two of Reacher.
@@shawnstephens1251 right on
You hear a heavy influence of NIN in this song.
One of the best things about Richard Patrick's vocals is how they can go from hard and heavy in this song to worlds softer in Take a Picture and every lyrics out of his mouth just sounds awesome
Take a Picture is great song.. actual bought this CD
Title Of Record. Great album.
Obviously another great song by Filter is "Take A Picture." It's really a special..... beautiful song.
That's one of the few songs out there that makes me shed a tear.

This isn't grunge, it's industrial metal.
Yeah I mean, to be fair, it's kind of a lighter version though of industrial metal though. It's not like Ministry, Nine Inch Nails, or Marilyn Manson. But I mean it works. :)
@skerr808 not many bands are like Ministry. I remember hearing Stigmata by Ministry when I was young, and it freaked me out. 😂
🫵🏼🎯🎯🎯
It's perfection
Ministry, great band, been following them since their synth New Wave days. Incredible transformation of the band. 👊🏼✌️
Impossible for me not to see Jim Carey in cable guy basketball scene when I hear this though I love the song!
Finally! Filter is an awesome band.
By the way, it makes my heart smile to see you two rockin' it out! You go!!!
I have broken soooo many strings playing this song.
Amber totally vibed to this one!😊
Amber is really jamming on this one!
I LOVE it when Amber goes into her zone! Amber is so tapped into music - she can feel it in her bones and it shows
A fun fact id heard about this song is that when the lead singer was the guitarist for Nine Inch Nails he presented this song to Trent Reznor and he didnt want nothing to do with it, hence why it became Filters big hit
Trent liked the song, but wanted to buy it and claim writing credit. You make it seem like he hated it or something.
right...part of that story is that Patrick was in NIN and wanted more money for his participation in the band and Reznor said "go get a job delivering pizzas" and thus propelled him to start Filter :)
HEAVY in many ways.😮
Haunting is an understatement. 🤘😎🤘
some other great songs in a similar style are "Tomorrow" by Silverchair and the band "Puddle of Mudd" has "Blurry" and "Control" also "Psycho" and "she hates me" were popular also. the band Chevelle - "The Red" is another one
Chevelle has a good amount of songs! Comfortable Liar, Sma, Take Out the Gunman, Wonder What’s Next, Send the Pain Below, Breach Birth, Vitamin R
I forgot about this song and band....very heavy in the 90's!!!!
This is from their 1st album. Their 2nd and 3rd albums are masterpieces from beginning to end.
I was about 10 when this song came out and for a long time I thought he was saying Hey Man, Nice Shirt. I'm still teased about this 27 yrs later😂
This was the first concert I've ever went to. I was in 9th grade and they played on New Years Eve. They waited just right before midnight to come out and counted down. WAS AWESOME!
Bud Dwyer shot himself on live TV, suicide.
And no one mentioned here yet that he was right, he was wrongly accused and thats why I say nice shot.
@@arifeannor9573 Truth!!!!!! Still can't believe that was live on TV...So sad... I'll never forget that.
Oh yeah, I forgot it was about that!!! Thanks for the reminder!
@@arifeannor9573 he was guilty af!
@@steelyspielbergo He was cleared. The guy admitted to lying.
This is one of those songs that you keep at a normal volume while driving until that first chorus part, then it's immediately cranked to 100.

Wow thanks for that 😢sounds like he sacrificed
Wasn’t this about Kurt Cobain? Why would he say he wishes he could have met some no name politician?
And wasn't he later found to have been wrongfully accused? The whole thing was horrific and tragic.

The singer is Richard Patrick, the brother of Robert Patrick, actor who was in Terminator 2 and many other mo ies.
He was also in NIN
It was today that I just learned that. Fan of their since hearing them on the Crow and Spawn soundtracks.
So glad you’re reacting to this kind of music more!! Thank you!!
Love love love this song!!!
He brings an angel grinder in for the vocals at times....love it!
Wow, I haven't heard that in so long! It came out when I was in my late 20's and I loved it. I think I saw it on MTV originally. But later I bought the CD and would crank it up now and then.

Other great songs by Filter...The best Things, Take A Picture and my personal favorite, Welcome To The Fold.
When it all comes down to it, it's about all the nice shots. That is what makes it legendary.
Saw these guys in the 90s at a small venue. Blew me away. Good choice. Good Job as always. Be well. Band - Helmet. Song - Unsung

Filter old school " underground " special addition to those who searched and mixed with the in crowd!!
Ok, you're ready for the Sisters of Mercy. "More", "This Corrosion" or "Lucretia My Reflection" all good.
This is a HEAVY song great choice.
“Take Another” from this album is another incredible banger.
Another favorite-absolutely fantastic🤘💯❤️🔥
I don't know if anyone touched on it but also Richard was the guitarist on the first 2 NIN albums
I saw Filter in Ames Iowa summer 1995 in a small club… great band!
Great reaction and commentary on this legendary song, and, as has been already suggested, you should also do the song, "Take A Picture", also by Filter, which shows a different, but equally impressive, side to them, including amazingly soulful and touching vocals. Btw, I recommend doing the longer version of that song, the one that's just over 6 minutes instead of the shorter one.
"Three One One" 😂 Three Eleven is their actual name. I've always loved filter. Thanks for reacting!
Gave me a chuckle, too. After a confused second of, "Who?"
Their album Short Bus (that this song is on) is incredible.
The song is about R. Budd Dwyer, a treasurer from Pennsylvania who was accused of bribery, who unlived himself on national television. He was actually innocent. But when he shot himself on January 22nd 1987 at exactly 10 am (11 am EST), kids had a day off from school and saw it happen.
I was watching the live feed that morning and actually saw Bud do it. I spit my coffee across the room! Talk about a shock!
The singer of Filter , Richard Patrick told the crowd at the 2012 show in Vegas with GNR that this song …”Paid to put his kids through college “😁😂
this was my hype up song when i played hockey 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Filter is essentially 1 guy (like Nine Inch Nails) - Richard Patrick, who was actually the guitarist of Nine Inch Nails until around 1993 (?) when he quit after Patrick alleged that NIN's Trent Reznor refused to pay him and suggested he "deliver pizzas for extra money"... Richard Patrick wrote and recorded the debut Filter album 'Short bus' w/ Brian Liesgang (co-producer) and it became a platinum hit in 1995 in the industrial rock era.
Other tracks from the album - 'Under' ... and 'Dose'.
Filter parted ways w/ Brian Liesgang and released their 2nd album 'Title of Record' in 1999... another platinum hit w/ the songs - 'Welcome to the fold' ... 'The best things' ... 'Take a picture'... 🔥🔥🤘🤘
3rd album 'The Amalgamut' was released in 2002 but was not as successful in the post-90's era... despite the strong single "Where do we go from here"... 🔥🔥
Despite Filter declining in commercial popularity, Richard Patrick has continued recording Filter albums - 'Anthems for the damned' in 2008... 'The trouble with angels' (2010) ... 'The sun comes out tonight' (2013)... 'Crazy eyes' (2016) ... and 'The Algorithm' (2023)
Richard Patrick says he also works scoring films and movies and that is his main income source... He still tours w/ Filter on a regular basis.
Welcome to the fold
Take a picture
Can't you trip like I do......3 more by Filter
The lead singer is the younger brother of Robert Patrick. The actor who played the liquid terminator from T2.
Filter is truly underrated like so many other bands. Amber’s amazing how she described the song without knowing the words and the horrific story behind the song.
First of all, new subscriber. Love your energy! Lot of fun to watch. I saw these guys live at Endfest 3 back in the day. They were awesome. Got 2 quick suggestions: 5FDP, Wrong side of heaven. Song is good, but it is next to impossible to watch the video without shedding a couple of tears. And, Avenged Sevenfold, the beast and the harlot. They get a lot of their lyrics from the Bible and it's an interesting twist. Thanks for the entertainment and I'll keep watching.
Another awesome group and songs. You cant help moving to the music and sing along. Great song
I love you guys!!! I love watching you vibe out to the stuff I vibe to!!!
Haven’t heard this in a while, sure took me right back to the 90s. Sounded great with headphones. I loved their song “Take a picture”
I saw Filter at a free poolside concert in Las Vegas 10+ years ago. I knew this and Take A Picture. The latter of which I know from the DVD of my first skydive. Great songs and great memories.
This was used in a few tv shows. For me, the biggest being The X Files. Filter’s song “One” was used in the 1998 X Files movie.
The singer watched and rewatched a video for hours of a politician shooting himself in the head before writing this song.
YES! YES! YES! I am once again happy that you guys are listening to a favorite band of mine! Love you guys and keep em coming. If you love heavy stuff, DEFINITELY check out Korn and Limp Bizkit!!!
Hey, you two! Great reaction. First and foremost, the genre this song usually falls under is Industrial or Post-Industrial. The lead singer, Richard Patrick, used to play lead guitar in Nine Inch Nails before branching out on his own and forming Filter. Now, the original video for this particular song was taboo on MTV when it first came out. The song was written about the public suicide of Pennsylvania state treasurer R. Budd Dwyer on January 22, 1987, in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Dwyer had been convicted of bribery charges in December 1986, and was expected to receive a lengthy sentence from U.S. District Court Judge Malcolm Muir. Professing his innocence and decrying the legal system, Dwyer shot and killed himself with a .357 Magnum revolver during a live televised press conference. Something you can't shake out of your head once you've seen it. Quite heartbreaking actually. The guitar line in the chorus was previously used in the Stabbing Westward song "Ungod" in 1994. Stuart Zechman, who was also playing guitar for Stabbing Westward at the time, took the riff and showed it to Stabbing Westward, who ended up using it also. Quite the popular song back in the 90s, it's been featured in several films. And if this is your first time listening to Filter, you need to checkout "Take a Picture" from their second album. A complete departure from what you've just heard. At the end of the 90s, Filter went off to embrace the Alternative scene for a little bit.
Have had this song on my playlists for years...nice to see a reaction to it.
My favorite song live! Filter is so good live!
Awesome band. Choose anything off the 'Title Of Record' album....my pick, 'Welcome To The Fold' or 'Captain Bligh'.
You guys continue to amaze me as you continue to play my favorite music. Great job guys, so love your choices.
I was so excited to see you all reacted to this, I haven't heard this song in forever, but as far as the intro, you say it like "three eleven" not three, one, one, so thankful I was her for you (I'm teasing you). I love you both, but Amber was going hard and I love you for it. your reactions, your rhythm and dancing to the music is authentic and infectious.
The singer was previously a guitarist in the Nine Inch Nails touring band. His brother is actor Robert Patrick, the newer Terminator in Terminator 2.
I remember around St. Louis, this was used as kind of a theme song for the McGuire/Sosa home run race back in 98. One of the radio stations spliced in game audio to make it unique for McGuire.
One of my favorites from Filter!! YES!!
Singer got his start touring with Nine Inch Nails. If you haven't, PLEASE check out NIN!!!
Richard, Patrick is the lead singer in the most awesome person I've ever met. He struggled with addiction but he was hyper intelligent and a very nice good person. He came down off the stage. He seemed how much I liked filter and it was right before he passed away. They were performing with buckcherry and he came down off the stage and grabbed my phone and started singing with my ex-girlfriend and I and it was such a memorable experience and then I got to talk to him offstage afterward. I didn't have special tickets. It was general admission. He just seen how much I liked filter and this wasn't but maybe 8 years ago or so. But yeah that song's about a guy who shot himself live on TV. He's the reason why we don't have live TV anymore actually, but the reason he did it was because of the pressure he was experiencing because he was doing the right thing and they were railroading him and he killed himself because of it. On live TV. But yeah, this is one of the most monumental songs in rock history that most people don't understand. But Richard Patrick was an amazing person. And obviously a phenomenal vocalist
This is a SUPER dark song! My favorite performance of this is when the band was performing live during a fashion show on MTV!! The lead singer was belting it out 3 to 4 feet from models walking the runway, trying to act like nothing was strange, haha! Another good one, less dark but more angsty, is "Take A Picture".
“Welcome to The Fold” will blow you away. Give it a listen. If you do, grab a hold of something before pressing the play button, cause it punches you right from the start.
I requested you guys to play this band and 311 for a while NOW... BOTH groups are amazing.... can't wait until you dig into the rest of their catalogue. Thank you!
I’m surprised he didn’t bring up the bass… because this is a thumping bass line
Yeah Jay mentions the bass in a ton of other songs, but when this has one of the best bass lines in a song, he ignores it,
This is all about that bass 🔊
Bruh no kidding I was highly waiting for him to mention it the moment it dropped and got nothing. 😅
Because he tries to hard to be knowledgeable when he really is not
Big fan of you guys! I’m a fellow Oklahoman myself so it’s nice to see you guys succeeding. Filter-Take a picture is one of my favorite songs to date. Would love to see a reaction because it’s a totally different style of music. Keep up the good work!
"Time is frozen" ...... Dope ass analogy and description !🤙🤘🔥
