Fear Factory<\/strong> guitarist Dino Cazares<\/strong> has opened up about the band's forthcoming studio album, which is tentatively scheduled for release later this year via Nuclear Blast. The record will mark the band's first full-length with vocalist Milo Silvestro<\/strong> and drummer Pete Webber<\/strong>, who have toured with the group for over three years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a recent interview with New Breed TV<\/a><\/em>, Cazares<\/strong> explained that each track on the album will come with an in-depth explanation of its lyrical intent. "Each song will have its own detailed synopsis of what each song's about \u2013 lyrically," he said, referencing Fear Factory<\/strong>'s 1998 concept album Obsolete<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

"This is more of a description of each song, the intention behind it, what the lyrics mean, and it's gonna be intense. You're gonna be able to get more details\u2026 through our website or through Facebook or all through social medias. You're gonna be able to get all the information of what [each song] is about. So it's gonna be killer."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cazares<\/strong> also outlined the overarching themes of the LP, which revolve around the classic Fear Factory<\/strong> narrative of the battle between the organic and the digital. "It's always the battle between organic and digital\u2026 we are 35 years later where we are now, and that's what we're talking about," he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

"Humanity is only left in fragments, and there's very little hope\u2026 when it does come back, it's gonna be a new living organism that we haven't even discovered yet."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fans of the previously released instrumental "Roboticist" can expect it on the album, with tweaks to its arrangement. "The ending part of the song is now the middle part of the song. And it sounds amazing," Cazares<\/strong> teased.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The record also highlights the collaborative efforts of the new lineup. "Milo<\/strong> wrote a good portion of lyrics\u2026 Ricky Bonazza<\/strong>, our bass player\u2026 helps a lot with the lyrics as well," Cazares<\/strong> said. "Milo<\/strong> definitely \u2013 three years definitely helped him understand Fear Factory<\/strong> even more and where he fits in the band."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cazares<\/strong> stressed that the band has taken their time with the new material to ensure quality, especially given the high expectations for Fear Factory<\/strong>'s first release without original singer Burton C. Bell<\/strong>. "We want it to be the shit, because this record, when it comes out, it's gonna be forever," he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Silvestro<\/strong> also contributed musically, penning the closing track, described by Cazares<\/strong> as a cinematic, post-human epic in the vein of "Expiration Date" from 2015's Genexus<\/em>. "It's kind of like how they rediscovered the dinosaur\u2026 and bring it back. That's kind of where we are at the end of the record\u2026 Milo<\/strong> pretty much did it all himself," he explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regarding vocals, Cazares<\/strong> noted Silvestro<\/strong> blends homage with innovation. "There are elements where it's, like, okay, he sounds very similar to Burt<\/strong>, but there are other parts where he just sounds like it's a whole new thing, which adds a whole new freshness to the songs\u2026 You're gonna notice that through the whole record."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cazares<\/strong> concluded by praising Silvestro<\/strong>'s understanding of Fear Factory<\/strong>'s legacy. "He respects the past\u2026 and loves all that, so it's only natural for him to have a lot of those elements in him, because that's what he learned from."<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
