Red 4 Filth

Red 4 Filth is the fourth studio album by American drag queen and recording artist Alaska Thunderfuck, released on September 23, 2022. The album was promoted by ten pre-release singles, "Red", "Beautiful Breakdown", "Without Your Love", "Wow", "XOXOY2K", "Ask Me", "22", "Uh", "I Am Her ", and "Girlz Night". The album was supported by her first North American headlining tour in fall 2022. Red 4 Filth takes its name from a fake perfume she created on the fifth season of RuPaul's Drag Race.

Background and composition
The majority of the album was written during COVID-19 lockdowns. In an interview with Thrillist, Alaska said that the album was inspired by the sounds of 1990s and 2000s music, citing Weezer, Aqua, Toni Braxton, and Britney Spears as specific touchpoints. "Ask Me" is an Ace of Base-inspired pop song. ==Critical reception==
Critical reception
Sean Maunier of Metro Weekly wrote that "as inseparable as camp and comedy are from the Alaska brand, Red 4 Filth feels like it’s trying to be a more straightforward pop record, with some mixed results", and called the Drag Race references featured throughout the album "stale" given that Alaska is "four albums in, and so far removed from her time on the reality series". Maunier concluded that "Alaska managed to make the transition from reality star to recording artist better than most, but having set the bar high for herself, Red 4 Filth can’t help but come up short" and in spite of her "charisma and inimitable attitude", her most recent album lacks "the lightning in a bottle that made Anus work so well". ==Track listing==
