Product Description
From Amazon.co.uk
"Hey Man, Nice Shot" may have been a fluke hit, but Filter's Richard Patrick has spent four years working on the follow-up album, mastering enough sonic variety to ensure that Filter stick around the moshpit. Programmer Brian Liesegang is gone, but Patrick continues on, picking up the slack and yielding nothing. Crowd reaction is impossible to anticipate, but at 70 minutes, Title of Record is an exhaustive collection of hyper-kinetic guitars, subliminal melodies and thunderous dynamics--which is to say, it sports plenty of hard rock aggression, but is firmly rooted in the pop experience that keeps the songs in your head. "It's Gonna Kill Me" has a stalker's vibe in its techno-metal roots, while "Take a Picture" and "Captain Bligh" are radio-friendly unit shifters that suggest that underneath the technology rests a beating, and often bruised, human heart. --Rob O'Connor
Chronique amazon.fr
C'est en 1994 que commence l'histoire de Filter, lorsque son leader Richard Patrick décide de quitter son rôle de guitariste pour le compte de Trent Reznor au sein de Nine Inch Nails en faveur d'une approche moins électronique de la musique et plus centrée autour des guitares. Un album plus tard, divers morceaux sur des B.O.F. (X- Files, The Crow 2, Spawn), Title Of Record confirme le potentiel de l'homme parti en solo. "Welcome To The Fold" donne le ton, tant ce morceau d'ouverture projette une impression de puissance destructrice. S'enchaînent ensuite "It's Gonna Kille Me" et "The Best Things" qui n'ont rien à envier aux meilleurs des Tool, Helmet et autres Deftones. Toute l'énergie et la hargne, mêlées d'émotion et de sensibilité, de Richard Patrick pourraient se résumer au morceau "Take A Picture", titre d'un hymne FM mélange de murs de guitares et d'acoustique. --Sébastien Prieto

When I write a review, I "call 'em as I see 'em". There is no denying Trent Reznor is was very talented at what he's done. His songwriting was more impressive than Filter or Marilyn Manson and on that level I agree with you. However, NIN is not in a competition with Filter but rather with themselves to always top their previous work. For a band to release only once every 5 years is inexcusable.

Filter will never surpass Nine Inch Nails. Richard Patrick has a good album here but it will never be a masterpiece like the Fragile or Downward Spiral. The Fragile is masterpiece that will be remembered longer the "The donward Spiral" It's sad your like the rest of the people and didn't listion to the album and just hoped for another "closer". Sorry your to blind to see the real meaning behind album.

This review is from: Title of Record (Audio CD)
Mark thought the record was bad because the rest of the songs weren't like "Take MY Picure", and that annoys me because that is just a music preferance. Anyone who clicks on the music clips can realize that Take my picture is the exception, not album's genre. For anyone who likes this type of music, this is a great album. Welcome to the fold is precious rareity, a true rocker that's intent isn't radio play time with a 3min. length and predictability, but a long song that spirals through great parts. All Marks seems to want is mainstream pop hits, but that's what makes this album so good, it refuses to mold to mainstream junk and remains unique heavy metal minus the satanic voice that so many heavy metal bands have these days, this is a band that I can still wait for a new album from since STP and smashing pumpkins both broke up. The review is suppose to be of the album, not the band, obviously if you don't like the band you'll hate the ablum. It's like going on to a Johny Cash album review and giving it bad marks for all the songs not being like "Hurt", the NIN cover he did that is the only song that younger listeners propable know of his. Don't judge a band by the one song you know of their's, and assume that that's what all their songs sound like, just because so many junky mainstream band do so.
