\nFEAR FACTORY has released a special trailer that is a visual preview <\/a>into the story behind their forthcoming new album, The Industrialist. Set for release June 5, The Industrialist is the second album written by vocalist Burton C. Bell and guitarist Dino Cazares since reuniting in 2009 after a seven-year split. An audio snippet for the album\u2019s lead single, \u201cRecharger,\u201d is now available at the band\u2019s official YouTube page<\/a>; the single is available via iTunes, Amazon and other online retailers beginning April 24.<\/p>\n
As previously announced, The Industrialist is a conceptual record based around a short fiction written by Bell; lyrics to the album\u2019s ten songs divulge the narrative as discussed recently by Bell with Decibel Magazine. The album will be available on three formats \u2013 standard CD, a limited edition deluxe digi-book (featuring two additional songs), and 180-gram double vinyl. Pre-orders for the album in all formats will be available shortly via Candlelight Records\u2019 official webstore.<\/p>\n
Bell notes, \u201cthe protagonist (The Industrialist) is the incarnation of all industries in the form of an automaton. The mechanical, technological, and scientific advances through the industrial age led to the creation of The Industrialist. In the story, the automaton becomes sentient as it collects memories with each passing day. Through observation and learning, it gains the will to exist. What was meant to help man, will eventually be man\u2019s demise.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Industrialist follows the 2010 release of Mechanize. Widely regarded, the album was the first release from FEAR FACTORY in six years. Mechanize debuted on Billboard\u2019s Top 100 album chart week of release and topped CMJ\u2019s Loud Rock radio chart as programmers embraced the band\u2019s triumphant return. Sirius XM and Headbangers Ball\u2019s host Jose Mangin noted, \u201cafter Mechanize dominated 2010 as Liquid Metal\u2019s Album Of The Year, North America is chompin\u2019 at the bit to get an ear full of new Fear Factory. I have no doubt that FEAR FACTORY are going to kick our collective asses in 2012.\u201d<\/p>\n
Members of FEAR FACTORY are currently in Los Angeles rehearsing for upcoming performances in South America followed by their first U.S. tour since late 2010. Bell and Cazares presented members of Slipknot the \u201cComeback Of The Year\u201d award last week at the 4th Annual Revolver Golden God Awards; an award they were nominated for in 2010. Xbox broadcast the program, including pre-ceremony black carpet interviews, to all game console owners; Revolver Magazine streamed the event live via their Facebook page. Rebroadcast information will be announced by Revolver Magazine shortly.<\/p>\n
