The Amalgamut
The Amalgamut is the third studio album by industrial rock band Filter released on July 30, 2002 on Reprise Records. Contrary to their prior two albums, Short Bus and Title of Record, which were both certified platinum, indicating over one million copies sold, The Amalgamut stalled prior to hitting 100,000 copies sold, in part due to frontman Richard Patrick cancelling the album's main tour in order to enter a rehab facility. The album still had two singles release in its promotion, "Where Do We Go from Here" and "American Cliche".
This was the last album to feature band members Geno Lenardo, Frank Cavanagh and Steve Gillis, with Patrick starting up a new band, Army of Anyone upon getting out of rehab. It was the last Filter album to be released until six years later, when Patrick reformed the band, with new members, and released 2008's Anthems for the Damned.
