Fear Factory [reviews]
Demanufacture (special version) |RoadRunner, 1995|

Demanufacture, Self Bias Resistor, Zero Signal, Replica, New Breed, Dog day Sunrise, Body Hammer, Flashpoint, H-K (Hunter- Killer), Pisschrist, A Therapy For Pain,
Your Mistake (bonus track), !Resistancia! (bonus track), New Breed (revolutionary desined mix) (bonus track)


Reading interviews with them makes me more happy than listening to their music although they gathered lots fans and the music is well done and solid. As for Demanufacture - there is a killer track called New Breed (revolutionary desined mix), so fast and perfect that can't stop listening to. Demanufacture Special Version contains 3 additional songs. Album mixed by Rhys Fulber from Frontline Assembly among the others. ( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz.

Digimortal |UNI/Roadrunner, 2001|

What Will Become?, Damaged, Digimortal, No One, Linchpin, Invisible Wounds (Dark Bodies), Acres Of Skin, Back The Fuck Up, Byte Block, Hurt Conveyor, (Memory Imprints) Never End, Dead Man Walking, Strain Vs Resistance, Repentance, Full Metal Contact


Fear Factory has its own easy to remember style - dense drums and low pitched guitars. It's not industrial rock although it fits to industrial metal music style. Personally I'm tired of such amount of trash vocals with low tuned and noisy sounds but if I'm fucked off so why not..? ;) Not sure how to describe Digimortal because all of the songs sound similar one to another and it doesn't let me value this record high.

Fear Is A Mindkiller |Uni/Roadrunner, 1993|

Martyr (Suffer Bastard Mix), Self Immolation (Vein Tap Mix), Scapegoat (Pigfuck Mix), Scumgrief (Deep Dub Trauma Mix), Self Immolation (Liquid Sky Mix), Self Immolation (LP Version)


Remixes to Soul of a New Machine album, quite interesting. ( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz. Must not be used for promotional or commercial purposes. See a Legal Note for the copyrights below)


Obsolete |Uni/Roadrunner, 1999|

Shock, Edgecrusher, Smasher/Devourer, Securitron (Police State 2000), Descent, Hi-Tech Hate, Freedom Or Fire, Obsolete, Resurrection, Timelessness, Cars, 0-0 (Where Evil Dwells), Soulwound, Messiah, Concreto


Fear Factory is a factory of low tuned sounds and trash music style = no mercy! :) There are some samples or synthetic sounds from time to time so the band's music is called industrial-metal sometimes. There are lots of sounds known from Obscolete album although I got an impression everything's arranged with the same pattern. Cars it's a cover version of the Gary Numan's popular song from the 80's and a hit song in the Fear Factory history ;) ( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz.

Soul Of A New Machine |Uni/Roadrunner, 1992|

Martyr, Leechmaster, Scapegoat, Crisis, Crash Test, Flesh Hold, Lifeblind, Scumgrief, Natividad, Big God/Raped Souls, Arise Above Oppression, Self Immolation, Suffer Age, W.O.E., Desecrate, Escape Confusion, Manipulation


The debut of Fear Factory was noticed at once on the music scene. Typical for FF sound makes the band recognizable and there's no matter what record you start your adventure with their music from. All of their music is rough. ( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz. Must not be used for promotional or commercial purposes. See a Legal Note for the copyrights below)

Hatefiles |Roadrunner Rec., 2003|

Terminate, Frequency, Demolition Racer, Machine Debaser, Invisible Wounds (The Suture Mix), Resurrection (T.L.A. Big Rock Mix), Edgecrusher (Urban Assault Mix), Descent (Falling Deeper Mix), Body Hammer (Colin Richardson Mix), Zero Signal (Colin Richardson Mix), Cars (Numanoid Mix), Dark Bodies (Demo), Replica (Live), Cyberdyne, Refueled, Transgenic, Manic Cure, New Breed (Spoetnik Mix)


Remixes for previously released albums plus demo and live songs. I liked Machine Debaser, Body Hammer and Transgenic the most. I'm not quite convinced why they turned New Breed into electro-techno-terror song.. I hope it's a one time venture. ( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz.

Archetype |Liquid 8 Rec., 2004|

Slave Labor, Cyberwaste, Act Of God, Drones, Archetype, Corporate Cloning, Bite The Hand That Bleeds, Undercurrent, Default Judgement, Bonescraper, Human Shields, Ascension, School


Lots of hate and furious looped guitar and drums samples. Cyberwaste, Drones (a bit Prong like song), Shool, Default Judgement, softer Human Shields, instrumental even chill-out Ascension, those are the songs sticked in my memory. Nothing surprises, nothing disappoints. ( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz. Must not be used for promotional or commercial purposes. See a Legal Note for the copyrights below)
