Many know Richard Patrick as the only static member of the band Filter. Prior to the formation of Filter, Richard cut his teeth in a band called Nine Inch Nails. In addition to hits like "Hey Man Nice Shot" and "Take A Picture," Filter's music has been featured in everything from Tales from the Crypt's Demon Knight to Spawn to The X-Files -- both the series and the movies.

Filter's platinum-selling 1999 sophomore album, Title of Record, recently received a deluxe double vinyl reissue through Craft Recordings for its 20th anniversary. We spoke with the band's frontman and singer via Skype about all this and more.

Tracklist:

Filter, "Hey Man Nice Shot" (Short Bus)

Filter and the Crystal Method, "Can't You Trip Like I Do" (Spawn OST)

Filter, "One" (The X-Files: The Album)

Filter, "Thanks Bro" (Songs in the Key of X)
