The Industrialist

Fear Factory has unveiled their artwork (and track listing) for their upcoming LP, "The Industrialist", which is set to hit stores on June 5th via Candlelight Records.  Check out what Burton and Dino are saying about the new album and the themes behind it.



"The protagonist (The Industrialist) is the incarnation of all industries in the form of an automaton. The mechanical, technological, and 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." - Burton C. Bell

"Collaborating with Burton again on the new album was like magic. Everything just fell into place naturally. It felt good to recapture the true sound of FEAR FACTORY, taking it back to where it all started while raising it to new levels." -Dino Cazares

His production and keyboard talents has made FEAR FACTORY stand out amongst the many bands of our genre."
