| ___________________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 6:04pm - MikeOfDecrepitude ""] Got this the other day. It's pretty fucking heavy. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 7:03pm - zyklon ""] Fuck yeah! |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 7:09pm - Spaldino ""] this is pretty good. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 7:17pm - arilliusbm ""] Nu metal sounding or older sounding? Comparable to what album? Production good? |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 7:18pm - the_reverend ""] AS JOE CHRISTIANNI SLOWLY CRIES |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 7:22pm - Spaldino ""] production is nasty... its heavy heavy heavy. very powerful sounding bass drum trigger. makes everything together very crushing. its like... umm... Archetype/Divine Heresey mixed. very Fear Factory, It's what Transgression wished it sounded like. BTW... Transgression gets a lot of hate, but under the shit production lies a pretty heavy album that is really decent if you have a great EQ on your stereo or s great DSP plugin on your Winamp. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 7:29pm - arilliusbm ""] I was hoping for a pre-obsolete sound but didn't expect it one bit. |

| ___________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 7:35pm - Spaldino ""] why? i personally really like this album a lot. almost more than Demanufacture. a band needs to progress anyway. sounding the same gets fucking boring. look at Belphegor. they dont change at all, and the music is still good and all but its sort of stale. |
| _________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 7:39pm - reimroc ""] I like this album so far myself. |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 7:42pm - MikeOfDecrepitude ""] this is waaaaay heavier than obsolete. there aren't as many clean vocal parts this time around, either. |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 7:47pm - Spaldino ""] i wanna say that this is the heaviest album actually. |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 7:50pm - MikeOfDecrepitude ""] "designing the enemy" is killing me. |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 8:02pm - Spaldino ""] "Fear Campaign" and the opening track whoop my sorry black ass. |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 19,2009 10:41pm - dertoxia ""] I just realized that this fear factory is with Dino and is technically a separate band from the Archetype era fear factory. But to compare this to Transgression, this is better. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 20,2009 12:09am - Spaldino ""] when i said the opening track being one that was kicking my ass... i wasnt lying... but i was actually talking about "Industrial Discipline". the title track/opener is really awesome too. |
| _______________________________ [Dec 21,2009 10:36am - Yeti ""] i'm very excited to hear this now. |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 21,2009 10:39am - arilliusbm ""] I listened. Heavy shit, but doesn't do much for me like their older stuff. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 21,2009 10:46am - Hoser ""] BONER |
| __________________________________ [Dec 21,2009 10:51am - C.dEad ""] Very awesome from what I've heard. Holy shit, they use scales and even a solo. This is the only recording from them that I have dug since Demanufacture. |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 21,2009 11:00am - arilliusbm ""] It's definitley thier best in a while. |
| __________________________________ [Dec 21,2009 11:48am - brodown ""] download is blocked from rapidshare. Another link? |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 21,2009 2:00pm - MikeOfDecrepitude ""] I've been digging this a lot. It's definitely not your typical FF release. And brodown, just do a google search for a blogspot, someone's bound to be hosting it. |

| _____________________________ [Dec 21,2009 2:31pm - pam ""] REALLY. I wasn't even going to bother with this, now I'm kind of excited. Thanks for the link! |
| _____________________________ [Dec 21,2009 2:33pm - pam ""] Booo, it's broken. Here's a working torrent: http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/146628425/Fear+Factory?tab=summary |
| _______________________________________ [Dec 21,2009 2:39pm - jebus_crispex ""] This album is fantastic. If you don't like Fear Factory this won't change your mind because it's still very much so a Fear Factory album, but I think there are a lot more interesting parts on this album and as mentioned it is heavy as hell. Also, MikeOfDecrepitude is correct, "Designing the Enemy" is fucking awesome. |
| ______________________________ [Dec 21,2009 3:16pm - Yeti ""] i'm very happy to read these reviews, i'd love a good solid Fear Factory album to come out. |
| _________________________________ [Dec 21,2009 7:29pm - ZenErik ""] Giving it a listen now. First track is pretty sweet. I love Obsolete (yay for songs in major) and most of Demanufacture. :P |
| _________________________________ [Dec 21,2009 7:45pm - ZenErik ""] I've just been skipping through the tracks, but "Designing The Enemy" caught my attention. Got some nice bend riffage. :D I think the vocals on the album may be a bit overproduced, but other than that, very solid. Could do without the demon sounding narration in a few tracks. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 21,2009 7:52pm - immortal13 ""] Won't let me download it. Saying it's been blocked or whatever. WTF?! |
| ______________________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 12:09am - MarkFuckingRichards ""] This link worked for me: http://rapidshare.com/files/323189781/FF_-_M_StratoRayto.rar Downloading now; excited to hear this. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 1:17am - porphyria ""] still one of those bands that is better on record, Burton can't hang live. |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 1:47am - MikeOfDecrepitude ""] I don't really agree with that. Yeah, he has had off nights, but usually every time I saw them, he sounded great. I like the contrast between their albums and the live performances. |
| _________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 5:49am - ZenErik ""] I'm thinking this is the only album by them, besides Obsolete, that I can sit all the way through. Demanufacture is also excellent, but I always want to at least skip the "Dog Day Sunrise" cover. If not "New Breed" and A Therapy For Pain" too. |
| _______________________________ [Dec 22,2009 10:33am - Yeti ""] really? i love the "Dog Day Sunrise" cover. i actually like it more than the original, Burton's voice does so well with it. |
| ____________________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 10:40am - MikeOfDecrepitude ""] The original kicks ass. Head of David is underrated. |
| __________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 10:41am - C.DEAd ""] Yeti said:really? i love the "Dog Day Sunrise" cover. i actually like it more than the original, Burton's voice does so well with it. WHHHAAAATTTT? You can't touch "Dustbowl" and HOD is one of the greats. Sure, I like the cover okay, but the original...so good as is the entire record. The two versions are night/day with the original coming in foist. Hands down. |
| _______________________________ [Dec 22,2009 10:46am - Yeti ""] yeah Dustbowl is awesome. i just love that cover. |
| __________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 11:52am - C.DEAd ""] I hear ye. I just so rarely get to gush about HOD. |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 11:57am - arilliusbm ""] Dustbowl is also an awesome map. |
| ____________________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 11:59am - MikeOfDecrepitude ""] Everyone always talks about Dustbowl. LP also ftw. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 12:00pm - arktouros ""] it is an awesome map. and i've never liked FF but i'll check this out |
| ____________________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 12:00pm - MikeOfDecrepitude ""] you won't like it then. |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 12:01pm - arilliusbm ""] arktouros said:it is an awesome map. and i've never liked FF but i'll check this out friendly fire on dustbowl = fail |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 22,2009 12:01pm - arktouros ""] i think i've always unfairly grouped them with slipknot, mudvayne, etc. so i'll give em another shot. |

| ______________________________ [Dec 22,2009 3:24pm - Yeti ""] arktouros said:i think i've always unfairly grouped them with slipknot, mudvayne, etc. so i'll give em another shot. they are always unfairly grouped with shite like this. they preceded all of this by many years. they definitely don't get their due credit. i like how they never claimed to be anything they weren't, like death or something like that, they just did what they did and if you liked it, great, if you didn't, great. another thing though, i could imagine it being more difficult to get into them now, at a later age. i was 16 when i got Demanufacture in 97, so it was new and i was an impressionable teenager. it was waaaaaaaaay different then. |
