Filter Announce New Album ‘The Algorithm,’ Share New Single ‘Obliteration’

Filter have announced a new album, The Algorithm, their first new record in seven years. The band also dropped a new single, “Obliteration,” as a preview of the record.

“Ashes circle the drain / And now it’s all that’s left / All that’s left of me / Sink my teeth in the pain / Watching the world go numb / And I’m just one step from obliteration,” frontman Richard Patrick sings in the song.

“Obliteration” was produced by Patrick and long-time collaborator Brian Virtue.

“Obliteration” follows the previous single “Face Down,” which was released in May.

The Algorithm is set to drop on August 25 via Golden Robot Records.
