While digging around looking at some live Fear Factory vids for today, I did stumble across this studio video for Ressurection, which is a great track from the album Obsolete. Fear Factory is a Los Angeles, California based metal band. They formed in 1990 and have since released seven full-length albums and a number of singles and remixes, over the course of which they have evolved from a succession of, as well as steadily pioneered a hybrid of, the styles of death metal, industrial metal, groove metal and alternative metal; the resultant techniques in sound and vocal styles proving to be enormously influential on the extreme metal scene from the mid-90s and onwards. Their most recent album, Transgression, described as a more experimental and atypical effort, has also contained elements of pop music and progressive metal. Christian Olde Wolbers - guitar Byron Stroud - bassRaymond Herrera - drums Burton C. Bell - vocals Also, interestingly enough, Fear Factory often has Rhys Fulber of Front Line Assembly playing keyboards on tour. Rhys Fulber remixed Fear Factory's most popular album "Demanufacture" which was re-released as "Remanufacture". Fear Factory will begin writing new material for their eighth studio album in the summer of 2007. The album will be produced by the band. Bell has confirmed that Fear Factory has recently parted ways with Liquid 8 Records and it is currently unclear which label the new album will be released on. They are also currently working on a third remix album, a preview of which has been posted on their official MySpace page.
