Filter is back on the airwaves creating a new image on the music scene. This time, the band explored on the soft side of their music career rather than the usual heavy. Fans of the band were divided based on their preference with Filter playing mellow than heavy metal. Members of the band Richard Patrick (vocals, guitars, bass, programming, drums) and Brian Liesegang (programming, guitars, keyboards, drums) were very excited and positive trying this type of music.

Being no stranger to movie soundtracks, Filter sings for the action sci-fi thriller movie referred as Dooms Day, 2012. The band’s brand new single, “Fades Like A Photograph” is the one featured for the said movie’s soundtrack. Filter’s songs were also featured in the following movies: “Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight”, “Cable Guy”, “Crow: City of Angels”, “Songs in the Key of X: Music Inspired by ‘The X-Files’”, “Spawn: The Album”; “X-Files Original Soundtrack”; “Crow: Salvation” and “Little Nicky”.

Fades Like A Photograph by Filter

Have you ever seen the stars at night and wonder

Why so bright (so bright)

Have you ever seen the sunset on a cloudy night

And wonder why tonight

And maybe there’s just one time with you

I want to remember for eternity, for eternity

Chorus

Photographs taken like memories of you they disappear

Colors of your eyes they fade with time

They just can’t stay clear, yeah!!

Fades like a photograph

Just want to bring you back

Have you ever seen the bottom of the ocean

From a plane, what a sight

Have you ever seen the sunrise

In the snow cap mountains from twilight

And maybe there’s just one time with you

I want to remember for eternity, for eternity

Chorus

Photographs taken like memories of you they disappear

Colors of your eyes they fade with time

They just can’t stay clear

Photographs taken like memories of you they disappear

Colors of your eyes they fade with time

They just can’t stay clear, yeah!!

Fades like a photograph

Just want to bring you back

Yeah, yeah whoaaa ooooh

Fades Like A Photograph is a mellow song which totally represents the gist of the movie having all the memories fade in an instant along with the end of the earth. It is a heartbreaking song which reminds each one of us the beauty of appreciating things while still having them and the gratitude one must have just because they have one more day to live. The song is quite mellow and poignant nevertheless, Filter did not dismay their musical career despite the changing course. So, before the earth shook and end, listen and appreciate this song.
