The song "Take a Picture" is about a dispute on an aircraft, when Richard Patrick drunkenly stripped down to his boxers, alarming the other passengers. Title of Record moved away from industrial rock somewhat, and resulted in the band's biggest hit, the mellow ballad " Take a Picture", along with other lesser-heard singles "Welcome to the Fold" and "The Best Things". Patrick continued with 1999's Title of Record with returning members Lenardo and Cavanagh, as well as Steve Gillis on drums, filling in the gap left by Walker after he left to work with The Smashing Pumpkins. In 1998, for The X-Files film soundtrack, Patrick decided to keep the Filter name and recorded a cover of Harry Nilsson's " One".

Kurt Cobain's suicide was widely rumored to have inspired the song, but the band denied this. This song was somewhat controversial, as it was seen as capitalizing on the public suicide of Budd Dwyer.
