Filth is Eternal’s Find Out is the triumphant reawakening of one of Seattle’s most vigorous bands, and their rebirth will soon be complete. Find Out, the new LP, is a spool of razor wire ready to unfurl on the unsuspecting world via MNRK, their label debut due this fall. The new testament from FIE is not only the band’s best effort to date, but a clear undertaking of their own genesis with a deep awareness of themselves, their crowd, and the shared history between them. Friction from opposing forces informs the lyrics on Find Out, the title of which could infer emergence from trauma or consequential learning. Regardless of its intended meaning, the title is used as a conduit for the band to push toward positive strides when addressing mental health, addiction, identity, sexuality, and relationships, with community as a salve– approaching from a nihilistic viewpoint to shine a light, trying to explore a new way. 

While those themes are visited, details are where the band stops short, ensuring that the listener is guided to these themes but leaving individual song messages for them to ascertain. Lyrics aside, the true key to the new Filth is Eternal sound is the deep-rooted attention to songwriting– a feat that can be virtually impossible to write with care in a genre where discordance is applauded. Exploding with fresh ideas, heavy on hooks, and clandestine melody, Find Out is nothing less than a triumph and a clear breakout release for FIE, not to mention a future staple for heavy music fans worldwide. Using the talents of producer Paul Fig (Slipknot, AFI, Alice In Chains) while recording at Dave Grohl’s Studio 606 and Dave’s Room, Find Out adds just enough spit polish in production to conjure the masses but still retains the dirt and grime necessary to remain congruous to the sound and fury within.
