For more than three decades, industrial metal pioneers FEAR FACTORY have explored the friction between man and machine, tracing the rise of artificial intelligence and humanity’s loss of control over its own creations.
Today, the band launches a bold new era with ‘Roboticist.’ The latest single, which premiered on Sirius XM Liquid Metal, marks the recording debut of the band’s current line-up featuring vocalist Milo Silvestro, drummer Pete Webber, and bassist Tony Campos. Blending crushing mechanical aggression with a haunting, melodic hook, the track explores a dystopian reality where flesh fails and only consciousness endures.
Produced, engineered, mixed, and mastered by Damien Rainaud, the single arrives alongside a cinematic music video directed by Vincente Cordero and produced by Arion Csihar. System activated: the next chapter of FEAR FACTORY has officially begun.
FEAR FACTORY guitarist Dino Cazares comments, “The future isn’t coming. It’s already here, ‘Roboticist’ is the next evolution of Fear Factory. Man, Machine and the war for what comes next. I can’t wait for everyone to hear the beginning of a new era of Fear Factory.”
Death is no longer the end, it is the next evolution. The machine no longer needs humanity; it inherits the future.
Stand by, critical intel on the upcoming album is imminent. In the meantime, prepare for the live assault. Experience FEAR FACTORY as they tear across Europe and the US on the Cybernetic Domination Tour.
