As a longtime fan of Filter, catching up with frontman Richard Patrick was both a personal and professional milestone. In this exclusive conversation, we dive into the band’s new single “All The Good”, a track that delivers the raw emotional intensity and sonic layering fans have come to expect from Patrick’s visionary songwriting.
With the upcoming release of The Algorithm: Ultra Edition on August 8th, Patrick opens up about revisiting and reinventing The Algorithm. This deluxe edition features 9 additional tracks, including remixes by industrial heavyweights like Charlie Clouser and Sean Beaven, as well as Filter’s bold reinterpretations of U2’s “A Sort of Homecoming” and Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy.”
We also address the unfortunate cancellation of the highly anticipated co-headlining tour with Jerry Cantrell, and how the band is pivoting from disappointment to focus on what’s next. Patrick doesn’t shy away from broader topics either—our discussion spans his thoughts on artificial intelligence in music, the enduring legacy of his supergroup Army of Anyone, and how he keeps his voice healthy while out on the road, and more.
A pioneer since his early days as the original touring guitarist for Nine Inch Nails, Patrick’s 30+ year career continues to evolve, blending industrial rock with cinematic scope and personal depth. Whether you’ve been listening since Short Bus or discovered Filter through recent singles like “Face Down” and “Obliteration,” this interview offers a compelling look at one of rock’s most dynamic voices—still pushing boundaries and staying brutally honest, decades into the game.
