About
Short Bus is the debut studio album by American rock band Filter, released on May 8, 1995 via Reprise Records. Lead singer Richard Patrick said in an interview that Trent Reznor had told him he should make his own record while he went off to work on Nine Inch Nails' 1994 album The Downward Spiral. Patrick, while still retaining industrial elements in the music, chose to focus on the guitars, which he felt was something missing when he played with Nine Inch Nails; he also chose not to go with the standard industrial rock sound, which he felt would set them apart. Short Bus has sold over one million copies in the United States, and is best known for the hit single "Hey Man Nice Shot".
