It's the 1st big return of the band with Burton and Dino. But people still miss Raymond and Christian. I wish they'd bury the hatchet and just find some common ground and give us the grind we miss!
It doesn't get the appropriate love it deserves because of the massive amounts of turmoil the band created with their odd separation from Dino, then again reforming with Dino but ditching Ray & CoW. Purists had a hard time accepting FF could retain its sound without Ray or Christian. What they didn't know is that Dino wrote and recorded a vast majority of the bass guitar, and he played a huge role in what Ray recorded on drums. It was also a large part of why Gene was only with FF for one album, Dino was not thrilled with Hoglan adding drumming elements never used in FF before - and they also couldn't afford to pay the kind of money a drumming legend like such demands.
I’m a extreme/death metal drummer and I can say that to play this fast, precisely, takes hours and hours and hours and hours of practicing. Countless hours of rudiments and polyrhythms, and getting faster and more efficient. Takes time and a lot of frustration.... But it’s worth every minute and blister. This drummer is Gene Hoglan the Cyborg Octopus! What a machine... Keep going hard, man!!! Loving the content!
To play FF accurately is an achievement in and of itself. Herrera doesn't fuck around..straight ahead speed is one thing..but the dexterity with the feet is insane
You can always spot a power/speed/death/grindcore metal drummer by his truly epic Popeye-forearms - that sheer level of muscle build doesn't lie! Well, there's one caveat: if said person has that amount of build in BOTH arms (as well as calves), they're crazy metal drummers ; if, however, the extreme muscle build is in just ONE arm (doesn't matter which), the only thing epic about them is the next-level amount of jacking off they do.
Hoglan destroys Herrara on drums...but i just can't seem to like any FF better than a herrera lead FF. Gotta factor in the chemistry of the members, adds a lot.
Sepultura - Dead Embryonic Cells. Has one of the greatest breakdown sections. Igor on drums is simply amazing. Sepultura, Fear Factory and Pantera got me out of 80s rock and into more "powerful" music.
I don't like this song specifically because it's blatantly about the "war" between Herrera/Christian vs. Burton/Dino thing where Burton basically wrestled the control of the band from everyone else, getting Dino back on HIS terms when the band originally went down because Bruton couldn't deal with Dino. So yeah. Just find it really tiresome to listen him justify the whole thing to us...
@@nomindseye It's about having something back that was always yours. The details you mention are irrelevent to the song. New FF, and the old drama gets left behind. "to take control of what is truly mine"
Fun Fact, they actually released this song and it was played on the radio for a short time. I have to say that this is the heaviest song that I have ever heard be played on a mainstream radio station.
This is IAN WOOD MY BROTHER. THANKS AGAIN SO MUCH. U MADE MY YEAR. I LOVE UR REACTIONS. U DO ALL MY FAV BANDS. FEEL FREE TO DO MORE FEAR FACTORY. THEY HAVE MANY MORE GREAT SONGS. THANKS AGAIN BROTHER. KEEP IT PUSHING TO A MILLION SUBSCRIBERS. I'M GONNA HELP U GET THERE!!!
Brother you never stop to amaze me. You really have a very broad music curiosity. You should do "Final Exit" with lyrics. All FF albums have some slow-profound songs that really get you.
I'm so glad you finally found Fear Factory. It's sad I missed this song. I've been so busy pumping Self Bias , or Zero Signal I missed Powershifter. Thanks for sharing this experience.

Thank u ,I never heard this music before thank u for introducing me to this music I look forward to looking them up and hear more of this music ,the words are powerful,,,
Jessie Moreno Just listen to their album “Obsolete” from beginning to end. Actually, just pick any album they have and push play. You will not be disappointed.
Gene Hoglan. My all-time favorite drummer. Because of Gene Hoglan, this is my favorite Fear Factory album and I was hoping he'd continue as their drummer. But this is the only album Hoglan did with them.
I love all type of music I could go from listening to Stevie wonder Isaac brothers to fear factory to slayer right back to listen to something like Sade, this was one of the best reactions i seen...keep an open mind period
For one thing you are beautiful! Second. Your range of music genres is so amazing! I love your reactions! You are so real and so open to all music just as I am. Keep going! I love your selections and reactions! Love and light!
Love you're reacting to Fear Factory bro! Started listening to these guys when they came out and love their message, grove, power and unique sound. Awesome man!!!
Awesome to see someone reacting to Fear Factory. One of my all time favs. You should do the flipside of their work and check out some of their "ballads" Descent, Timelessness or Expiration Date. Also Ressurection is a class track that shows how beautiful they can make their style.
@@Toolmybass That's your opinion and I'm not going to tell you that you're wrong. I personally think Burton's lyrics are amazing. Fear Factory has always been one of my favorite bands since I saw them in 94, so I admit that I'm bias. I think that they are one of the most underrated bands from the 90's. Agree to disagree I guess.
Picture this... a guy {me}... walking along London's streets in constant power walk with songs like these pumping into his own ears... and that was me, that's exactly how I was feeling back then in those tough days... when I stopped doing that it was quickly Game Over! I'm back to Italy now, almost a decade after. That killing machine system has won that war and Brexit was the latest nail to seal the coffin.
So glad I was a teenager in the 90s, I had teachers like RATM and FF at the same time as the golden age of conscious hip hop.. back then the lyrics all meant something.. damn, those were the days..
Gene Hoglan (the drummer) is nicknamed the Atomic Clock if that tells you any anything. He weighed over 300 lbs. and wore ankle weights when he recorded this song. Crazy
The drummer is Gene Hoglan who was in the greatest metal band to ever exist, Strapping Young Lad. It would be rad for you to react to their video for "Detox"
Just subbed; watched your Rammstein Sonne reaction vid too....been listening to music like this for years and it's always awesome seeing someone discover new music and appreciate the message it conveys. :)
I'm a new subscriber and I scrolled through your videos to see if you had any Fear Factory songs. I've been a fan for years and am glad to see you enjoy them.
One thing was awesome: "is that a brother?" And the answer : "the brother". about killswitch engaged. Till now I am watching your videos. Greetings from Russia!
glad you are discovering Fear Factory, probably in my mind the best in the Business, by far such a powerful band, the music is just next level! if you get a chance listen to Linchpin, shock and Soul Hacker!
i been following Fear Factory since the 90s..., they've never failed to impress... their fukin madmen!! another badass industrial band is rammstein. awesome video man. keep em up!!
I'm so happy for u ur numbers are going up quick and well deserved, I tell u Its the best reaction channel,ur genuine thank u, Much blessings to u and ur family,,,, From California
Yeah I mean you can’t discredit the original lineup and awesomeness of drummer Raymond Herrera and bassist Christian Olde Wolbers, but I’m just glad that FF still making music. New album supposed to be released, but they may use a different name. They got fucked by their record label.
You might be surprised to learn that this is a different drummer than the one from Self Bias Resistor. They enlisted Drumming God Gene Hoglan nicknamed The Atomic Clock for this one album. He is one of the greatest drummers of all time and has been in many different bands kind of like a mercenary drummer, the dude is jaw droppingly amazing.
The groove. Break free from the gears of the machine. Question authority. We must control our own destiny and not let the system and others control our own individual destinies. I love you Jamal for repping this band. They have a message and groove....spirit. I never thought I’d like hip hop but now I can’t atop listening to Migos and Rae sremmurd The Weeknd but fear factory. Check into 311. 311 and fear factory are in my top 5 of groovy spirit also known as good music :) transgression is an underrated Fear Factory album with a feel like when living colour created Stain after times up. No glamour boys here :)
