Whenever I hear Filter they remind me of a local band called Floater, who has a PNW cult following but never broke. Great style, sort of the next step of the light/heavy writing style.
Ha, I haven't heard the name Floater in years! I used to see them play in Albany from '96 - '98. I thought they'd for sure make it "big!" I miss Oregon. I grew up in Corvallis and moved away at the age of 20 in 2001. Now I live in Massachusetts. Floater used to gig with the weirdest bands. One time, they actually gigged with the Cherry Poppin' Daddies before they hit it big. I also saw them with Sweaty Nipples, post Greg Eklund.
