Fear Factory News

27 years ago on June 13th 1995, our 2nd album “Demanufacture” was released. It changed our lives.

Demanufacture was so far ahead of its time that bands are still failing to rip it off convincingly today.
Fear Factory’s Ultra-precise extreme metal attack dragged metal into the future – Metal Hammer

Look at the countless metal bands who have since imitated their unique machine gun style rhythm section – created when Dino Cazares’s staccato riffs locked in perfectly with Raymond Herrera’s syncopated kick drums.
The album sounds not one day older today than it did in 1995. A metal classic for the ages. Burton C. Bell introduced the world to the alternating heavy and melodic dual vocal approach that would go on to become a staple in metal to this very day – Monte Conner

June 5th, 2022 marks the tenth anniversary of The Industrialist.
The protagonist is the incarnation of all industries in the form of an automaton.
The mechanical, technological, & scientific advances through the industrial age led to the creation of The Industrialist.
In the story, the automaton becomes sentient as it collects memories with each passing day.
Through observation and learning, it gains the will to exist. What was meant to help man, will eventually be man’s demise.

In celebration of the album‘s tenth anniversary, Fear Factory announces “Re-Industrialized”, replacing the programmed percussion with live drums newly recorded by longtime drummer Mike Heller.
Re-Industrialized features bonus tracks, including “Enhanced Reality,” which was originally intended to close the album.
Release details will arrive soon!

Digimortal is 21 years old today. Released on April 24th 2001 marks the bands 4th studio album and the last album to feature the classic lineup.

It reached #32 on the Billboard top 200 charts. Linchpin reached #31 on mainstream rock charts and still remains our #1 most streamed song.
The record was not a mainstream success as the record label hoped it would be but it still sold more then 500k worldwide.
Thanx to all the fans that supported us at that time and all of you that still support us now.

12 years ago on February 5, 2010 Fear Factory released “Mechanize”.

It marks the return of Dino Cazares and it’s a great comeback album!
Also the first album to feature Gene Hoglan.
Heavy & brutal riffs with killer Industrial elements that make it a classic FF album.
