Welcome to the Fold

"Welcome to the Fold" is a song by American rock band Filter, released in August 1999 as the lead single from their second studio album, Title of Record.

"[3] The title of the song is based on an album of the same name released in 1998 by a novelty folk-rock band from Cleveland called 100,000 Leagues Under My Nutsack.

Filter's bassist, Frank Cavanagh, was friends with 100,000 Leagues' lead singer, and Richard Patrick liked the album so much that he named the song after it.

"[6] While the song's verses are screamed and the guitar riff is grinding and abrasive, the chorus is more sedate and chord-driven.

A man comes out and calls on his radio and soon more people in RVs come and set up camp to watch the concert.
