The first leg of this U.S. trek--a mix of headlining shows, radio festivals and special engagements--begins April 24 at Stubb's in Austin, Texas, to be followed by three June shows overseas in Germany and the U.K. Earlier this month, Filter made a special appearance for the troops in Kuwait when they performed at the March 10 Operation MySpace concert.
While on tour, Filter will preview songs from Anthems For The Damned alongside such Filter classics as "Hey Man, Nice Shot," "Take a Picture" and others. Anthems For The Damned --produced by Pulse Recording head Josh Abraham--features the first single "Soldiers of Misfortune". The first-person narrative was inspired by a letter from a Filter
fan who had enlisted in the Army reserves to get his college tuition paid; in his final year of college, he was shipped off to Iraq where he died from a rocket attack and small arms fire after just a few days of duty. [This is a sad story but that's part of what you agree to when you ask the military to pay for your education.]
