About this listen
One can’t overstate the size of the FEAR FACTORY boot print on the neck of heavy metal. Unleashing influential albums with devastating anthems for 35 years now, they are widely recognized as both crucial and innovative in extreme metal circles.
FEAR FACTORY manufactured, demanufactured, and remanufactured a sound that reverberates across several subgenres. They perfected an explosive blend of staccato paint-stripping riffs, industrial- tinged drums, electronic flourishes, and a scream/sing dichotomy, all of which became staples in heavy music, ever since the group first emerged in L.A.
Celebrating 35 Years Of Fear, FEAR FACTORY are dialing in a Cybernetic Domination of Australia for their first full headlining tour in 10 years and finally for New Zealand, they perform for the first time since 2012!
The signature sounds, concepts, and passions remain, as FEAR FACTORY salutes its past, present, and future. HEAVY caught up with guitarist Dino Cazeres to find out more.
"We've been coming to Australia since 1993," he began. "This is gonna be our 15th time there, and I can't wait to get there. We have a huge catalogue of songs to sift through and create a perfect set for a killer live show in Australia."
Fear Factory often deal with subjects of dystopia and control, the rise of the machines being a dominant landscape. Which begs the question, does Dino see the world today as closer to those themes than when the band first started?
"100%," he nodded. "And I believe we are at fault, you know what I mean? We're the ones who are allowing this to happen. Sure, there are higher people who are making these kind of executive decisions and developing this technology, but a lot of the stuff that we sang about in the past has definitely come to fruition, and it's just… this technology's gonna keep on evolving."
In the full interview, we covered Fear Factory's current creative state, touring plans, and forthcoming releases, with Dino explaining his songwriting and performance perspective. Dino described himself as a rhythmic writer who composes riffs with drum patterns in mind and said he writes whatever he feels, whether melodic or brutal; he noted his performance approach and enjoyment of entertaining fans remain consistent with his work since the 1990s.
The conversation addressed touring improvements, and emphasized that studio collaboration keeps the project enjoyable and motivating. Dino confirmed that new singles and a new Fear Factory record will be released soon and directed fans to fearfactory.com for tour dates and VIP packages and more.
