A lot of people don't realize that Fear Factory is a pioneer band. And they are credited with influencing bands like Static X, Machine Head, Spineshank, Chimaira, Coal Chamber, Devin Townsend, and Slipknot. Fear Factory are underground kings in the metal scene. And it sucks they don't get recognition much anymore. Not enough new kids hear them.
Not only credited. Its 100% accurate. They launched many copycats that could not match Fear Factory's level of talent. I remember people not believing how good Raymond Herrera was and thought he used triggers on his peddals but its been proven he didn't. He and Dino Cazares were just THAT in synch. They are/were a machine.
Not just that. Not only did they pioneer the clean/harsh vocal style, their trademark sound has influenced pretty much every newer metal subgenre, from Nu Metal to Metalcore to Djent.
Absolutely dude, these guys were pioneers for many metal sounds we hear now. Same is true for Strung Out with punk rock...so underrated and influenced SO many other bands.
For sure, Jason - I remember this coming out and a lot of people at the time HATING it because "it's not metal - I don't know what it is . . . but it's not metal!". These were the same people that called "Sound of White Noise" grunge because Anthrax didn't do another thrash album. Fans at the time didn't want to admit that thrash and traditional metal had gotten stale and needed to change and evolve or risk dying out. Nowadays it's pretty much universally regarded as an all-time classic and game-changer . . . but back then it fiercely divided people (keep in mind anything even remotely electronic sounding got called "techno shit" by most metalheads back then). All these years later and the double bass still sounds like a god damn triphammer. Brutal.
It was just the era, man - that first half of the 90s was a crazy time for metal. Thrash had pretty much run it's course and wasn't going to go any further, and grunge had taken over the airwaves all around the world. A lot of metal fans hated on Grunge because they thought they were being misrepresented by it, but that's always been a large part of the metal mentality - it's the same people that shit all over a band like Linkin Park and never shut up about how "they're NOT metal!". They never fucking said they WERE, but a large amount of metalheads have a tendency to judge something on what they want it to be, not what it actually is. Anthrax had "Sound Of White Noise", Metallica committed the gravest of sins by releasing the black album. Megadeth were getting songs played on the radio . . . the 90s fucked with the more narrow-minded end of the community in unbelievable ways. A lot of them saw all this "selling out" and when Fear Factory came along, many of them thought it was selling out metal to the techno crowd (and that was BEFORE they released Remanufacture, the remix album - unheard of in metal at the time!). Time and distance has managed to make a lot of people change their original opinions, but trust me - if the internet had been around between 1990-1994, holy shit it would have been UGLY. ;)
Fear FACT for Pink: The band's vocalist, Burton C. Bell, was the first frontperson to combine clean and harsh vocals in Metal, and did so on the band's debut album "Soul Of A New Machine" in 1992.
not so much. some bands did it a little bit, like king diamond and mercyful fate ( same singer), but he technically didnt growl, just deapened his voice to imitate a demonic voice. the credit has long been given to Fear Factory for this achievement.
Fear Factory is one of my all time favorites! I’ve seen them in concert 24 times. Demanufacture is my favorite album of theirs. My favorite song is Self Bias Resistor, of which showcases the vocal range of Burton C. Bell. The last time I saw them, which was two years ago, they played Demanufacture in its entirety. It was a blast!
@@jalliboy I don't want to start a fight here, but... how was it revolutionary exactly? It sounded like a funnier version of bad 80s hair metal. Or am I missing something?
Paul Saucedo. Ive had the pleasure of meeting then numerous occasions great guys dino is one of my favorite guitarists fear factory over all awseome waiting for whats after genexus
Regarding the lyrics: The album that this song is from is a concept album that tells a science fiction story about a man and his struggles with - and revolt against - a corrupt machine-lead government. Each song acts like a chapter from his life. This is the first song from the album, and as such is the first chapter of the story. in which the main character sees the evils of the opressive government and decides that enough is enough, he must fight and he's got nothing to lose. "I've got no more goddamn regrets, I've got no more goddamn respect"
You reacting to Fear Factory put you at the top. Plus, your love for Layne and Devin prove your taste in music is very good. Also, you’re fine. Enjoy the channel.
I met Fear Factory at 99 Ozzfest in Vancouver,BC .Partied with them after their set,and the next day went for sushi with them and the Deftones and sold them an ounce of weed.
She missed an amazing time in metal, but very cool she listening to Demanufacture. So pleased to have seen them a bunch of times in London during mid 90s when metal was at it's best.
That's my favorite Fear Factory song. And, it's the track right after Demanufature on the album. Looks like she's just going to have to review the whole record. :) \,,/
The Driver mechanize is pretty much slash due to the brutal drumming and hidden whammy solos. Drumming is killer though thanks to gene hoglan. Genexus Obsolete I just can't get tired of. Terminate.
Been listening to Fear Factory since 1998 and still do to this day. Amazing band simple as that. I was just thinking they are on the MK soundtrack so 1995. Fuck I'm old lol! :). Type O Negative is another band that I started listening to back then and do today. They are also on the MK soundtrack :) RIP Pete.
The first time I heard of them was at a Sepultura concert in Phoenix in the early '90s for their Chaos A.D. tour. Couple of bands played and then I heard the name "Fear Factory" and I kind of laughed at the name as did others in the crowd. But MY GOD!!! When they played, everyone was kind of in a trance at first lol...and then the place just erupted! The vocal chanting with their heavy speed thrash sound was just so new and pure! The next day I quickly ran down to Sam Goody (internet points to those who remember lol) and bought the CD "Soul of a New Machine" One of my favorite shows of all time!
Andrew Martinez The remix of “scapegoat” from the FEAR IS THE MINDKILLER disc is what got me into fear factory in the first place...then “martyr” hooked me permanently...
Obsolete is a badass album. Not one bad song. Kick ass CD. With good guitar WORK Saw this tour twice BACK in the day. Met all the guys too. Signed my cds. Cool dudes. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
I saw these guys live 20 years ago playing this and saw them like 2 years ago play this entire album from start to finish. They still have it. Love Fear Factory!
I first saw Fear Factory opening up for Sepultura on their Chaos A.D. tour back in '93 or '94; I had never heard of them before that and when we saw them set up a keyboard we were all like "What the fuck is that?!" Then, they opened with "Martyr" and holy fuck the place just exploded. I've been a huge fan ever since.
YES a 2nd post for saturday Fear factory has been a while yes this is so intense it's crazy so love this thanks glad to see you groove to it long live guttural vocals and I would give it a strong 9 rating love u girl keep expanding the nation you seem to be getting shooketh from both sides with tupac and fear factory
Love your review of this classic song. This was off the Fear Factory album to have. One of the songs from this album "Zero Signal" even made it as the Scorpion vs Johnny Cage fight in the 1995 Mortal Kombat movie. They are one if the few bands that have never really lost their touch, and you can listen to any song off their most recent album "Genexus", and hear that same "hunger" over 20 years after this masterpiece of the album. Love the content in this review, and am glad I found this, cause I am now a fan.
Fuck yeah! I LOVE Fear Factory! 🤘Some incredible songs I think you'll enjoy would be "Controlled Demolition", "Industrial Discipline", "Slave Labor", "Corporate Cloning", "Protomech", "Hunter Killer", and "Regenerate".
I clicked on this video so fast, for one 1, this is my favorite band and they are so fucking underrated, it’s ridiculous! And for 2, I’m just so happy to see a black girl that likes metal
The very last Metal band that blew my fucking mind off! I remember buying the Demanufacture t-shirt and I still have a blast listening the entire álbum 🙌🏻
I didn't know Fear Factory was categorized as Industrial. I do like that "the band stated the album took inspiration from the movie, The Terminator". I love the album! Please listen to Manowar - Achillis, Agony and Estacy! :)
It comes from all the machine sound effects they incorporate and Dino's guitar style. When Demanufacture dropped NIN and Trent Reznor were really big with that kind of thing and FF sort of got lumped in with the industrial bands although they're as metal as you can get.
One of the biggest reasons they get categorized as Industrial is due to Rhys Fulber playing keyboards/sequencers on their albums as well as Producing for them. Rhys is from Front Line Assembly.
remakes and covers are ok sometimes but they are not always better than the originals. most times people don t even know about the originals and think what their hearing is the one and only even tho it's been done before
seeing as how i have listened to the original.. Fear Factory was pretty spot on for their cover.. in fact i enjoyed it.. being the picky bastard that i can be at times when it comes to music it really cried out to me.
Thank you Mona. You made my weekend with this reaction. Dino Cazares has one of the best right hands in metal. Their song Zero Signal changed my life. P.S. I love the way you headbang.
Even though Burton's voice isn't what it once was, he is still a criminally underrated metal singer. Even if he didn't invent the clean chorus/heavy verse style, he was definitely the first metal singer to use it extensively and he always goes uncredited for this. Burton is a legend, my favourite singer ever!
You want some breakdowns (they actually invented breakdowns with clean vocals in extreme metal, they also invented "djent", without being boring like most djent bands are), check out Self Bias Resistor from them. It was their breakthrough song, the one that changed everything in metal. It's from the same album.
They admit themselves having been heavily inspired by Fear Factory, with the use of machine gun-like drumming associated to palm muting, which no one did before Fear Factory. And actually, you can hear the birth of djent all over the album Demanufacture. It just wasn't a name or a genre yet.
I'm sure they were inspired by them at some point, but Meshuggah formed first and had an album out before FF. Fear Factory made assemble figures popular in metal, (not a new concept in music) but they heavily use it in the or music, which is what their sound is based upon. And I'm glad for it. It's fucking awesome. Djent as we know it, is a sound and usually deals with polyrhythm/polymeters, which FF was doing the exact opposite. As far as the name djent, Fredrik Thordendal said it, when he was drunk, to the producer to describe the sound they were going for.
T. B. Hatecraft i remember me and Jake Bowen, of periphery, petruccis nephew, listening to this CD in middle school, he will tell you fear factory was way more influential than meshuggah
Fear Factory is one of my favorite bands, possibly my number one. I found them later in their career. Thank the Resident Evil movie and Invisible Wounds for that. Love them!
Fear Factory was mixed by Greg Reely and Rhys Fulber of the Canadian group Front Line Assembly who used Devin Townsend on some tracks on the albums Hardwired and Millennium. Fear Factory also later used Byron Stroud and Gene Hoglan who was in Strapping Young Lad with Dev. Christian Olde Wolbers, the bassist for Fear Factory at the time of Obsolete and Demanufacture played bass on Devin Townsend's Infinity album as well.
A buddy of mine and myself met dino(guitar player) at an el nino show. Dude was just standing there...we walked up said hey yer dino....yep...sick guitar player man...thanks, you guys want a beer....sure....bought us a beer...I gotta go, were going on now....cool thanx bro. It was pretty sweet, and a story we tell often. Lol
Fear Factory has been around since 1990 and released there first record in 91 with there debut “Soul of a New Machine” Demanufacture was an album that would have a massive influence on the 3rd wave of Metalcore specifically bands like Killswitch Engage.
Had this on a cassette tape for my sony Walkman. Best 16.99 ever spent for a tape. I still remembering my friend lending me like 10 bucks to get at the mall. Fucking amazing tune and amazing record. FF for life.
This band really made an impact on me when I was a 14 year old. they are also a big part of what got me playing music too. check out one of their last singles the band released, called "Soul Hacker" i really dig that one a lot too! :)
I’ve never consecutively liked so many videos in a row. I LOVE watching you have your mind blown. At the end there I literally saw the top of your head fly off! Lmao you should do misery signals-ebb and flow
I met these guys at an in store signing in 1996 just before a gig. I was drawing a little comic thing at the time that was inspired by the Demanufacture album and brought them a page to sign whilst everyone else bought CDs and the like. They were super nice and really flattered that their music had inspired someone to draw a comic. The story, unfortunately was never finished. It dragged and I lost faith in the project as it started to deviate from my original vision. It remains unfinished to this day, but I still have the page they signed. :)
I was 15 when this dropped. Zero Signal was on the Mortal Kombat soundtrack and when I heard it I knew I had to go buy the damn CD. One of the best decisions I have ever made. Demanufacture is legendary.
Freddy Sol I remember when archetype album had a countdown on their website and came out in 4 20 of 2004 and I still remember when I bought the album on 4 23 of 2004. I was in awe when I heard archetype for the first time it moved me. It's still my ring tone too this day when anyone calls me.
There wouldn't be bands like FFDP or slipknot without this band they started the growl with singing when they did the song zero signal for mortal kombat
The greatest metal album of all time. I'm old as fuck so I remember when this first came out as a teenager. Blew me away then and continues to destroy me every time I hear it.
I saw them in Vancouver opening up for monster magnet and Rob zombie! They stole the show by a landslide! I liked them before but after that show I became a massive fan after that night!
And demanufacture was released in 1995. They were around in the very, very late 80s under the name ulceration. They changed their name in the early 90s. they originally recorded their album "concrete" which was supposed to be their first album. but it was never released due to lawsuits or somehow losing their music etc. So they recorded their "first" (if you don't count concrete. Nobody does even me.) album soul of a new machine which was one heavy fucking record.
Burton C. Bell also sang lead on Black Sabbath bassists Geezer Butler's solo project called G/Z/R . The first album was Plastic Planet and is a masterpiece. Any track from that album is worth a listen. I personally like " House of Clouds " or " Seance Fiction " .
This, Zero Signal and Body Hammer were the first ever Fear Factory songs I ever heard, albeit via the Carmageddon soundtrack. Demanufacture was my first FF album, and, in my personal opinion, will never be topped, no matter how awesome newer albums will be. You're definitely correct in it being politically inspired, although they did use science fiction as added inspiration just for added flavour. I recommend listening to their entire back catalogue, as I genuinely think you'll love most, if not all, of it. :-)
I'm 47 and I have all of their cd's. These guys really got the short end of the rope and better than half the shit out today. I've always liked fear factory.
