FEAR FACTORY To Begin Tracking A New Record Next Month!

It's going to rule, according to Dino Cazares.

It's going to rule, according to Dino Cazares.

Fear Factory will be hitting up the studio to record their first album in three years this October. This also marks the first time the band will have a drummer in the studio with them since 2010's Mechanize, which is either exciting or doesn't matter depending on what level of music snobbery you hold yourself to.

Guitarist for the group Dino Cazares recently revealed to SiriusXM's Jose Mangin (as transcribed by Revolver Magazine), the group is currently in pre-production mode for the record and will be working with Rhys Fulber on the recording aspect, with Andy Sneap mixing the affair. Cazares had some very interesting words to say about the record as well.

"Well, each one of our records are so different from each other–you know, it still sounds like Fear Factory, there’s still the killer guitar picking, the killer drum beats, Burt’s beautiful vocals on the top of it, you know, that’s all still very much intact, but you always have to try and experiment and push your music to different places, you know what I mean? From Soul of a New Machine to Demanufacture is a big jump, and Demanufacture is obviously so different. I would have to say this record would land somewhere between Demanufacture and Obsolete … No techno, none of that stuff, it’s just pure. Some of the songs are just heavy and groovy, and then you’ve got some of the blistering, fucking cold, mechanical riffs like Demanufacture."

That sounds really, really promising. It'll be interesting to see what bassist Matt DeVries (ex-Ringworm, ex-Six Feet Under) and drummer Mike Heller (ex-System Divide) bring to the table in terms of writing as well. This will also be the band's first release on Nuclear Blast.
