This song very strongly capitalizes on what Dino is best at, his syncopated guitar rifts that perfectly fit like a puzzle piece with Herrera's double bass drum
There's few cooler things than finding an album or song that you've been searching for decades for! 1995 i was 12 and my 2 older brothers had piles of cds and cassettes and would blast them for hours while skateboarding outside. I always particularly enjoyed this album but never bothered asking them who it was or what it was called. After a few years I couldn't even remember how to describe it to them so they suggested I try Pantera, biohazard and a few other similar bands. Nope. 20 something years pass and I randomly mentioned it again to my eldest brother and he said "Maybe it was Fear Factory?" I came straight here to listen and finally I found the fucking album! Pretty much the soundtrack to my summer 95.Only took 25 years. Fuck it, better late than never! *Edit* Notice a lot of people in comments assuming I'm a dude, lol. Nope I'm a woman:)
Found It in 1999 on the PS1 game Carmageddon, if you put It in the Cd-Rom It started this and other songs of the album, but they where only instrumental, It took me 11-12 years, i found them randomly...
Ha ha! I totally know the feeling and can absolutely appreciate the euphoria of finally finding the albums and bands that you've known by ear but not by name. In my case, it wasn't my older brothers but my older friends who used to play some really obscure Metal bands like Necromass and Urgehal which it was impossible to trace for decades on end. And when I finally did come across them - oh my god it was a musicgasm! Also, I was 14 in 1995, and along with White Zombie's Astrocreep 2000, Demanufacture was also my soundtrack for that Summer. :) Keep on rocking!
Oh boy, the 90's MTV had Headbangers Ball, the Ninja Turtles movies were actually good, Star Trek was at its peak, the time when everything was in 240p, when Tomb Raider was considered a realistic game on the PlayStation, and when Industrial Metal and Nu Metal actually had an audience I even miss the Dreamcast, damn I'm old
pariskotsaros - The production and songwriting were ahead of it's time. Now everybody sings cleans in choruses. Burton started it. Jens doesn't sing. Listen to Chaosphere and then listen to the guitar tone on this album. Dino scooped the mids yet made it sound open, tight and heavy in B. The synth pads you hear on this album are so typical now in prog metal, but this was industrial metal venturing into a new direction... in 1995. Meshuggah's sound was stolen but FF created a sound that they don't get enough credit for like Meshuggah does for what they've done. FF is a very underrated band. Let alone this album.
This album is like Quake 3....about 20 years ahead of it's time and at the time people couldn't grasp it. Still listen to it. LEGENDARY. Saw them live on this tour in KC.
The insane thing is that people couldn't grasp it and still it had the impact we know it had today. I think it's objectively top 5 onf the most influencial album in metal history.
This is without doubt one of the most influential metal albums ever to have been released, was the first time the stop start double bass came to be and changed metal for ever, the rest is history.
Yeah Ray was doing stuff that would become the gold standard for everybody else for the whole future of metal. I remember when fear factory came out, I was still very much in the Pantera world. I was a freshman in high school and one of the seniors who is a metalhead told me I needed to start listening to something heavier and this band, largely because of the drumming, was the direction he pointed me. I have the most respect for musicians who make sea level changes like Mr. Herrera did in this band
@@skinnygrave2487 Even at his fastest run, Lars wasn't even coming close to Ray. In terms of speed and precision. What are we talking about, the heavy part in "One"? Justice was the first album I ever owned and I absolutely love it. I absolutely love the drumming on it, but what I love is the relaxed pocket playing he does on songs like "Blackened". Lars was a titan of the pre-double bass era of metal... But Herrera level he was not, with double bass
@@TheMfmccarthythe heavy part in one is like the slowest double kick section he had on AJFA. There’s some decent start stops on the title track, there’s a section early on Blackened that isn’t slow by any means, and I mean, Dyers Eve exists. He can’t play it today by any means, but I think saying he couldn’t keep up with speed like this is a little unfair considering DE is faster and in longer sections. No disrespect to either drummer. But Lars was better at one time than given credit for, speed wise and somewhat technically as well.
An unfortunately forgotten landmark of evolving modern heavy music. When this came out, nobody knew what the hell to make of it. You listen to this now and you think "this was 1995 !??!"
@@XViTNg no breakdowns, distinct industrial influence, groove based guitar riffs compared to the more melodeath approach of many core bands. I just don't see how this is a big influence on metalcore.
@@AetiumBand I see it. It shares that same rhythm-over-melody that a lot of heavier core bands use, but not the At the Gates core type stuff. I can see FF's influence anytime a deathcore band enters a part in a song that's heavily staccato. Kinda hard not to when Dino made that sound so good.
I found this album when i was in 5th grade. This album is what put me to sleep as a kid. Fuckin fear factory are my lullabies. Doesn't take a genius to figure out i wasn't the most well adjusted 9 year old but these guys helped to calm me down because i knew somebody out there felt the way i did. This will always been in the top 5 for me.
Fucking legendary 🤯 haven't heard this album in at least a decade, probably longer. One of the towering masterpiece metal albums of the 90s that I grew up with. I'm glad it's so nostalgic for so many others as well, and I'm glad it held up so dam good. Still sounds fucking great 🤟
Well 'best' really a matter of opinion. However as of musical ingenuity I don't think any band can beat Watchtower/Blotted Science and Spiral Architect.
Everytime I hear this album I think of the old high school days skipping to get stoned with the homies while we beat the shit outta each other in Mortal Kombat 🔥
Absolute masterpiece. Despite being copied by a dozen bands, Demanufacture has never been equalled. I still have to fight the urge to kick shit over everytime the main riff in New Breed drops
Burton IS a damn fine vocalist!!! So unique. I have 4 of FF's albums & this is the oldest & BEST one I own, by far. First got this on cassette back in 1996!! Now on CD, of course. One of the best metal bands out there & I've heard a Shitload of them!!! Love a Shitload of them, too!!!!!!!
Love his cleans and screams on the albums. Live he kinda sucks though. At least he has for the last 15-20 years. There's a few live shows from the 90s where he actually sings pretty good. Not many, but they're out there.
That double bass opening is iconic!! Listen to that sound!! Miked up perfectly!! Sounds like a machine gun!! Raymond Herrera has to be one of my most favorite metal drummers!!!
01:32 every metal band stakes their claim on brutality in their time. The bands that accomplish the most are the ones that hit a high water of viciousness that stands the test of time over the decades. This particular moment I think is one of their heaviest
Remember having to specially order the digipack edition with all of the bonus tracks from the United States back in the 90's. I still have my CD and am never getting rid of it. Masterpiece of an album that has never been bettered by any other industrial metal album.
It was PS1. Not PS2. I know because I still have the original disc and 7 ps1 memory cards filled with add-on games and codes and play it just about every week.
I've had Demanufacture and Digimortal albums since they first came out and still listen to them both. Love them both!! Body Hammer, Dog day sunrise and Dark bodies are my favourite songs out of them all.
I always get sent into a rage when I hear a sudden hardcore punk riff in an extreme metal song like at 1:53. Just pure, raw intensity. I fucking love it! Makes me wanna break shit. Lol
Nothing quite like this band from this era. The sound is tight and clean in a digital way, the guitars are distorted but not so heavily distorted that the note disappears. The tone is nice and rich and warm, even while being digitally harsh
To be honest, I was blown away from this track upon first listening. I knew about fear factory but never really gave them a listen until my dad showed me his Ozzfest 97 shirt again (a shirt that I never realized it was a Ozzfest shirt, even in high school).
Back in 1999 I was 14 and I started dating a guy who had me convinced he was a musical genius. He gave me a mixtape and this was one of the songs. I 100% believed him until I heard the music from the tape on the radio. I pointed out the obvious lie and he got mad at me for calling him a liar. I put up with him for 2 years. Boy, was I dumb 🤣 😂
I remember finding this band in 2013 when I was 12. It was weird because they were under rated but I would listen to them all the time and I never heard anyone talk about them either and I still don’t to this day. I recently started listening to them again after about 5 years.
I discovered fear factory about 2 years ago. Prior I was a a huge hatebreed fan I still kinda am. This band just sounds so much better this shit just makes you so mad
"It was a time of darkness and destruction, a time of dread. Thanks to the twisted designs of a single man, the machines meant to end war for all time, instead became the executioners of civilization. Humanity's history tell us such times about these heroes and heroines dedicated to turning back the darkness, and so it was in the 21st century, the age of the machine."
This guy walked up to me at Taco Bell in the 90's, pointed at my Fear Factory shirt, and said, "Fear Factory would be cool if they didn't use a drum machine."
![Fear Factory - Replica [OFFICIAL VIDEO]](/img/n.gif)
This album production was so ahead of its time it still sounds fresh today.
This song especially
Yeah true , it blew me away when it 1st came out
I remember when they were the secret band at big day out in melb. I lost my shit when they came out!!
This song very strongly capitalizes on what Dino is best at, his syncopated guitar rifts that perfectly fit like a puzzle piece with Herrera's double bass drum
Timeless!
The fathers of industrial metal
2023.... Still the best metal out there ❤❤❤
That would be Godflesh and Ministry
Burton Mentioned " Godflesh" when I first saw them Live in 1992.
Blood Red Skies by Judas Priest from the Ram It Down album is often regarded as the first industrial metal song.
Pra mim é mais Groove Metal

Now i know where mick gordon got his inspiration for the making of doom 2016 soundtrack .
Fulgore's theme from Killer Instinct also sounds like this.
Just what I thought when I hear BFG Division and Rip and Tear ;D
Yep, Fear Factory were a big Factor. The whole album is inspirational.
and terminator films inspired this album
@@nicolashunter4131 yeah Terminator metal!
Oh boy, the 90's
MTV had Headbangers Ball, the Ninja Turtles movies were actually good, Star Trek was at its peak, the time when everything was in 240p, when Tomb Raider was considered a realistic game on the PlayStation, and when Industrial Metal and Nu Metal actually had an audience
I even miss the Dreamcast, damn I'm old
Star Trek movies were at their peak? Someone once told me the 90s Star Trek movies were rubbish
Respect
Cool
yeah!
Good old days...
And this, boys, is the opening of the most important album of the 90's.
MrScum76 could you explain how it's the most important? (Genuinely curious)
Meshuggah's DEI or Chaosphere were more "important" judging by their influence but this still slays
pariskotsaros - The production and songwriting were ahead of it's time. Now everybody sings cleans in choruses. Burton started it. Jens doesn't sing.

Sorry, but OK Computer is the most important album of the 90s.
OK Computer is for people who went bald before their 30s and love to play golf in their free time.
This album is like Quake 3....about 20 years ahead of it's time and at the time people couldn't grasp it. Still listen to it. LEGENDARY. Saw them live on this tour in KC.
SAME.
The insane thing is that people couldn't grasp it and still it had the impact we know it had today. I think it's objectively top 5 onf the most influencial album in metal history.
That's pretty funny bc I used to listen to FF while playing Q3 and stuff
YEAH !!!
No way! I live in Kansas City where was the show at? Beaumont club? Uptown? Memorial hall?
This is without doubt one of the most influential metal albums ever to have been released, was the first time the stop start double bass came to be and changed metal for ever, the rest is history.
Yeah Ray was doing stuff that would become the gold standard for everybody else for the whole future of metal. I remember when fear factory came out, I was still very much in the Pantera world. I was a freshman in high school and one of the seniors who is a metalhead told me I needed to start listening to something heavier and this band, largely because of the drumming, was the direction he pointed me.

always had extra batteries, the favorite tape, the backup for a change of pace and 2 mixes
life probably was more interesting

Seen them 3 times, met them once. Ray was playing some video game. Dino and I talked about Brujeria.
Good times.
Herrera is a beast!! so damn scary precise like a drum machine.
man 70% of this record were sampled! although it is still THE BEST
I saw them in concert back when Herrera was in the band. He was the best fucking thing on that stage, hands down.

Its 4am, perfect for some 90s fear factory feels
Looking back on it now, I'm seeing this as an early gateway to nu metal, the gaps, the utter perfection of the timing.
There are not many songs out there anymore that melts your stress away THIS is one of them that does in about 18.4 seconds 😁
My entire life is all of the albums this band ever produced. Of course sprinkles of other bands.
Not one gd regret.
