I know right? What a waste. All the 90s bands broke up an all went on to do fuck all. Just lose money entombed f.f morbid angel biohazard, pantera, imagine all these original lineups were still on tour
@Ermete Trismegisto Look bro I'm a drummer and what Raymond did on that album is inhumane. I'm not saying that that those other albums are not great but that was literally the first band that introduced me to metal It was digimortal by Fear Factory and war path by 6' under You can have your opinions that's fine but for me. My favorite album is digimortal and always will be
@@ermetetrismegisto8860”pop with electric guitar”. That is nonsense. It’s very different from “Soul of a New Machine”, but it is fantastic in its own way.
Everyone looks happy and says it was so smooth, yet this is the last album of the OG lineup. I wish to fucking god I could be a fly on the wall when they were recording this and their previous albums so I could fucking KNOW what the fuck happened between these guys that caused all the animosity.
Obsolete has a wicked tone too. Christian's bass tone is probably the most awesomely distorted one I've ever heard. You need to hear it on "Soulwound"...its just...omg.
Linchpin is pretty solid. So is acres of skin and memory imprints. Surprisingly some of the bonus tracks were better than some of the cuts that made the actual album. Over all it’s ok and I think they may have slightly caved to pressure to be more nu metal and marketable on the back of the success of Demanufacture and obsolete.
SOANM will never be topped heavy,melodic, creative, atmospheric and the use of full metal jacket quotes are incredible.I still hammer that album to this day.
...and i know that the sales weren't so good as expected but they're the greatest Industrial metal band of all time! They have to remember it all time!!!
I always respected Christian for the talent he have on both bass & guitar Sad that he left the band with Herrera he did an amazing job on Transgression
Hmm... I readed this in some interviews and this is what I remember. When Burton became friend of Dino again he stopped contact with Herrera and Christian, the guys at that time were ready to write new material, and waited long time for Burton to give them ideas, but he never was ready... (Some of that material went to Arkaea) We don't know what happenned there in another perspective cause Burton didn't explain it never, then in 2009 He and Dino restarted the history of FF again, without telling anything to the other 2 guys, so they assumed that were left behind, and that is what happenned. So, Christian and Raymond didn't wanted to left, maybe there was some internal problems but they didn't wanted to left the band Raymond didn't had more problems than the other guys with Dino in 2001, he was ready to accept apologies, to hear something from Burton if he wanted to bring back Dino. Christian had some problems with him, yes, like... Personal differences and problems (rap vs death metal thing). But actually the first who splitted the band was Burton, He wanted to left the band in 2001, he had a fight with Dino because of his "greed". Months later in 2002, He said "I don't want to work with you guys anymore, specially with you, Dino" The guys finally comeback after some time without the guitarrist, cause everyone agreed, I mean, they were thinking the problem was mainly Dino)
Amazing how off you guys are about what happened. I've been a fan for almost 17 years and Christian and Raymond dragged the band down into mud and pissed on it before they both got dragged the fuck out. I love those two more than anyone and Christian wrote some really, really good tunes on Archetype, no denying that! But you have to understand that Raymonds wife was managing the band HORRIBLY. At some point there was also rumours going on that the bands manager (Rays wife) got into a relationship with Christian or whatever that was. At that point, Burton couldn't take anymore and left the band. Burton I think started to take legal action against Christian and Raymond over the band name Fear Factory and at some point he was invited back in (when Ray and Christian had sorted their shit). Burtons demand was that the manager (Rays wife) left the band immediately which for some reason both Ray and Christian refused to agree with. Well, that is it. I think Burton settled the affair with Ray and Christian and basically reclaimed the band kicking both Ray and Christian out of it. Dino hopped back on after meeting up with Burton at some gig back in 2005. I think they're better off today as a band.
just saw them on saturday at the sonar in baltimore md. I was 10 feet from the stage. They were the best band i ever saw in my life. I got a autographed drumhead and an autographed record of mechanize. It was awesome there was probably 100 off us there thats it. I loved these guys since the first time i heard them in the early 90's They are the pioneers of industrail metal and in my opinion the best metal band ever!!!!!!!!! FF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's one of the reasons that I've always admired what he did. He is truly a versatile guy. He also produced Mnemic's "Passenger" album, and "Under Reprisal" by Threat Signal :)
Threat Signal was good, but the first 2 Mnemic albums pushed the envelope when it came to production man. Those albums have some of the best eqs put to tape.
They are unbelievably awesome live. I got to see them during the "Hate War and Terror" tour when they came here to Vegas and was blown away. They are definitely a band you don't just see once in your life. Did they play anything from the new album The Industrialist?
Digi was the first FF album i heard i loved a few tracks until i listened to Demanufacture, Obsolete and soul of a new machine they are far superior albums loved them all the way through 🤟 hopefully one day Burton, Dino, Christian and Ray will bury the hatchet and bring a old school FF tour or album... wishful thinking but would be cool there was talk about it since 2016 but nothing really came of it
"Digi was the first FF album i heard i loved a few tracks until i listened to Demanufacture, Obsolete and soul of a new machine they are far superior albums loved them all the way through". Same story, man. " hopefully one day Burton, Dino, Christian and Ray will bury the hatchet and bring a old school FF tour or album.." Highly doubt this would be. Burton's vocals is weak after the years, just look at the last live shows, he cannot sing + he left the band now.
I remember being disappointed by it and preferring Archetype. As time went on, I do find myself singing random songs from Digimortal from time to time.
Yeah this is a strange vid. I mean they split up right after it. When you read band interviews from just after the split, they say that there already was a problem between Dino & Burton, and that they recorded their own parts separately on this record. And this could be right because even in this vid you don't see Burton & Dino in the same room...
As it was stated in the video there had been disagreements during the process which is probably why they broke up shortly after this. Sad really as this was always the best FF lineup in my opinion.
StickSh1ft Yep. I do like Digimortal very much, but to me I always find the song to be too short and maybe too engineered. Almost like each FF member came in, played a couple of riffs, and that's it. No wonder they say in the vid that 'it was the smoothest recording process' since Dino & Burton were never in the same room together. It's still too bad that they split up and even more strange that after the first reunion (without Dino) that they split up again and then Burton to reunite again with Dino minus the rest.
i thimk his guitar playing damn good. the song bite the hand dino could of never made that,that being said been a fan since 1993 so i like dino more. If anythg christans bass is weak,he never has ad lib,or added harmonys to riffs. He,s just a foundation player..
Burton: Before I go off on all the comments and everything, I'd like to make an official statement first. First of all, I just want to cut through a lot of the confusion about one issue since it really will be part of every answer. I have not made a public statement about it; I'm not one to air dirty laundry, but I have been forced to correct certain misstatements by Raymond and Christian. The fact that I have not worked with Raymond and Christian for the past three years as FEAR FACTORY is for this one reason - it's that I did not want to be involved with their manager. Her name is Christy Priske and she happens to be Christian's wife. During the "Transgression" mixing session, her and Raymond started a love affair that lasted for a couple years. As [she was the] manager of FEAR FACTORY, this was completely unacceptable to me.
Yeah thanks, but I just realized it short after having seen this video... I did listen to the whole album again and ''but it wasn't here... whatever, I'm gonna listen to edgecrusher!'' and there it is! ahahah
Because Dino wanted to push them in a more Nu-Metal direction. Roadrunner was doing that with just about every band signed to them at the time because with bands like KoRn and Limp Bizkit being HUGE at the time, it was becoming a real trend. Burt didn't like this idea and got into a few fights with Dino about it. The guys a great guitarist, but apparently he's got a huge ego at times and has a "my way or the highway" attitude lol.
Awesome. Great video. I remember people talking smack about the album saying it was nu-metal and they band had sold out until I listened to some samples on the old CDNow site and heard some songs on the Digital Connectivity DVD and than bought that album, digipack version and liked it. Fear Factory rules.
DjJokerr nah it was a limited edition movie clips/with two singles cd (linchpin and what will become) that roadrunner put out on a contest on the website. I think they only made 500 lucky I won one lol
Though it would be great to have the classic lineup together, I think it's mostly their production that has suffered or not been present on everything after Digimortal. They were never the same after that. Something's been missing.
Sorry dude but i have to disagree, its actually the other way round, it was Dino planned and wanted to take the band in a heavier direction... all the Nu Metal stuff including B-Real being a guest on the album was Christian's idea who actually heavily contributed to this album as stated on this very video. The "My way or the highway" attitude was always attributed to Burton since he's the only one who never left.
It took that long to make that crappy album? A lot of stuff on that album was recycled from the past. Obsolete was a killer album and then they decided to release this junk soon as possible , which failed.
1:30 sums up Dino's relationship with every former member
My favorite FF record. Man, imagine what more this lineup could have created if they all actually got along. We'll never know.
I know right? What a waste. All the 90s bands broke up an all went on to do fuck all. Just lose money entombed f.f morbid angel biohazard, pantera, imagine all these original lineups were still on tour
Mine too I can listen to the entire album over and over which I do
Digimortal .....no way....mediocre ... is pop with electric guitar....Soul of a new machine and Demanufacture are FF

Never understood why so many hate on this album .. it's awesome! :)
This is the true and best FF line-up. Saw these four about seven times back in the day.
Obsolete has a wicked tone too. Christian's bass tone is probably the most awesomely distorted one I've ever heard. You need to hear it on "Soulwound"...its just...omg.
Its awesome. They need to bring Cow back!
Digimortal was not their greatest album, but is a good great album.
My favorite...

love this album! recordings games movies 2000' s years
I haven't listened to this or much of my old music for years. Still sort of tired of my old CD's but this one is so awesome and like-new again!
Obsolete is their best album by FARRRRRR
Great , Great album...
Thanks for sharing
love this album
I always respected Christian for the talent he have on both bass & guitar
Sad that he left the band with Herrera
he did an amazing job on Transgression
Christian and Raymond left because Dino came back.
followfornothing
Yeah, they had some problems with him, I read that somewhere.
Mahmoud El Arch Dino refused to return unless Raymond and Christian left FF. It had to be Dino's way or he wouldn't come back.

The Best 2 Albums
@@matttafakt i agree transgression and mechanize are the best
Archetype was a good album too
We're the line 6 flextone his main rhythm tone of just for cleans/effects? I keep seeing these OG NuMetal bands with these in their arsenal.
OMG. I haven't seen this in so long !!!
This behind the scenes vid is fucking rad !!!!
Cheers bud

Digimortal is SO fucking underrated
Thank you for correcting me on that! :3

Thank you/
I was today years old when I learned the bass on the verses of 'Edgecrusher' were done on an upright.
Me too, LOL.
I saw ff one year, there was a dude doing the worm on the floor and people were like rave dancing and moshing. It was so much fun
it reminds me of Carmageddon ! :)
