Episode Details

Getting older just means getting louder for Danny Elfman and Filter’s Richard Patrick. Both catch up with Kyle Meredith backstage at Louder Than Life 2026, where Elfman reveals how Tool’s Fear Inoculum got him through hours of tattooing, why he never expected to return to the stage, and how his next album comes with a David Lynch-inspired movie featuring Slash, Thundercat, and Caleb Landry Jones. Meanwhile, Patrick says he’s making the heaviest music of his career with A Place to Kill, talks about Ministry’s massive influence on Filter, and previews the upcoming album The Antidote, which picks up where The Algorithm left off. They also get into their work scoring films, the freedom of jumping between musical worlds, and why neither one seems particularly interested in mellowing out.
