Filter Announce New Single 'For The Beaten'

Filter have announced the upcoming release of their new single, "For The Beaten," on October 14 via Golden Robot Records.

The track will be the iconic band's first new track in two years. The track is described as "nothing short of classic FILTER and exactly what hardcore fans of the band have been anticipating for over two years."

"I spent a lot of time in the studio the last two years working on various projects and collaborations but at the core of it all, there is always FILTER," said frontman Richard Patrick,

He added, "We chose 'For The Beaten' as the first single because it's dynamic, dark, and heavy, just like the moment we are in. I look forward to working with Golden Robot and can't wait for everyone to hear the full album."

The song was co-written by Patrick and newcomer Zack Munowitz. It was co-produced by Patrick and long-time collaborator Brian Virtue and was mastered by Howie Weinberg.

Jimmy Eat World Share Acoustic Version Of 'Something Loud'

Arizona rockers Jimmy Eat World recently released an intimate acoustic-driven version of their current hit song "Something Loud."

"We thought it would be fun to make a stripped-down, alt version of 'Something Loud' along with some kind of video element," says Jim Adkins. "As we recorded parts, we filmed it. So what you're watching is what you're hearing."

"Something Loud" was released on June 10, 2022 as the band's first independent single on their label, Exotic Location.

The alternative rock band are currently on the road with their Something Loud Tour. The tour kicked off on September 8 at Rock Hall Live in Cleveland, Ohio, and concludes with a performance at the When We Were Young festival in Las Vegas on October 29.

The band is also working on their new album, which is being produced by the band along with Justin Meldel-Johnson.

Jimmy Eat World released their 10th and most recent album, Surviving, in 2019.
