Fear Factory & Special Guest

Bands who can really call themselves innovators, let alone inventors of an entire musical genre are quite rare. FEAR FACTORY with their then entirely revolutionary Cyber Metal sound can be counted as one of those rare cases. The band formed in 1990 in Los Angeles and with their first album ‘Soul of A New Machine’ appeared for the first time on the radars of music lovers world wide. With the release of the follow-up ‘Demanufacture’, the band started their triumphal march. The track ‘Replica’ even has been named “Best Song of the Year“by Metal Hammer magazine. After the release of ‘Digimortal’ and various personal differences, the band eventually splits up in 2002.

The band comes back together with a different line-up short time later and ever since has released 3 more albums with ‘Transgression’ from 2005, being the latest one thus far. But vocal master Burton C. Bell has confirmed that a new album with the title ‘Mechanize’ would likely be released in February 2010. The prospects of hearing new material and old hits should be reason enough for anyone to not miss FEAR FACTORY’s invasion of the X in Herford on 23rd February 2010.
