Fear Factory is an American industrial metal band formed in Los Angeles in 1990, built around the guitar work of co-founder Dino Cazares and a sound that fuses crushing riffs, machine-precise rhythms and the contrast between clean singing and aggressive vocals. Their 1995 album Demanufacture and 1998's Obsolete established them as defining voices of the genre, and the band has released ten studio albums to date. Since 2023 the lineup features vocalist Milo Silvestro, who replaced longtime frontman Burton C. Bell, with Pete Webber on drums and Tony Campos on bass.
Dino Cazares confirmed the band's 11th studio album - the first with vocalist Milo Silvestro - is in its final stages and due via Nuclear Blast before the end of 2026, with a first single arriving 'really soon'.
Fear Factory announced the Cybernetic Domination European tour for late August through October 2026, with support from Crystal Lake, Hate and The Nocturnal Affair, covering over 20 countries.
Guitarist Dino Cazares confirmed at Bloodstock Open Air that tracking of the new album is complete and the band moved into the mixing stage.
Fear Factory performed at Wacken Open Air 2025 in Germany as part of the Demanufacture 30th Anniversary European tour, which kicked off on July 18 in Essen.
Fear Factory announced a summer 2025 European festival run performing Demanufacture in its entirety to mark the album's 30th anniversary, with dates including Wacken, Katowice and Brutal Assault.
