If you're missing a dose of
Nine Inch Nails lately, you don't have to look further than this release for an excellent variation on Reznor's theme.
Filter, who record using a mobile studio, are a two-man outfit (with a few helpful friends) who specialize in crunching guitar noise walls and filtered vocals. The attitude is the same relentless depression, the songs as furiously metallic.
Filter wants you to know they're mad at the world, at people, at door-to-door preachers, at women, at heartbreak; meanwhile, they're depressed, and they'll make your ears bleed letting you know. Practiced, but heartless. ~ Steven McDonald
