Fear Factory


Recommended Posts

Wow. Thanks for the suggestions guys! :happy:

Oh, and you could just call me Ryan if you prefer. :yes:

Thanks for the history lesson there too. I just recently got into Fear Factory a while back. Just a mention always gets Keldyn's attention. ;)

Tell me more about this DVD. Spunds interesting. :)

are they still gonna come out with 1 more album to satisfy the contract? or is that what hatefiles is?

Hatefiles is a collection of rare, unreleased tracks, material that was never approved for final press or simply deleted. It's a good representation of both sides of the band. Their unique hi-tech, futuristic metal style and their adventurous remixes of existing favorites.

The material in hatefiles is not new and so there was very little if any band involvement behind it.

One particular track, Terminate, was actually scrapped after Burton left the band. They had the majority of the song down but was without vocals. Despite the split however the band honored their committment and the song was completed and added to HateFiles in time for release.

Unconfirmed Fear Factory rumor here folks. It has been stated that the band are planning to continue but with a new guitarist. I am guessing they have kicked Dino out the door. This is good news as Burton made no secret that Dino was largely responsible for the band's breakup. What else can I say but woohoo!!! Long live Fear Factory.

I really hope that they decide to continue with it, I'd like to see em live again, at least one more time :yes:

Long Live Fear Factory

:punk:

They have got a lot of airplay and made a few great music videos. Most noticeable are Cars, Resurrection, Linchpin and Replica. Their music has featured in a lot of movies, particularly video games. Check out Messiah, Demolition Racer and the upcoming Terminator 3 game where their song "terminate" features. Great track (Y)

:ninja: I know it's been a year now. Please don't beat me with the whacky stick, I might enjoy it. :shifty:

Anyway, seriously, this idea of mine might still happen. I got a chance to get some free CDs in the mail soon and I've made some Fear Factory selections. So can I get an update on some good songs to make a mix out of? I'd rather bring my thread back than make an all new one of the same subject matter. :rolleyes: :p

And was there a new album of there's that came out recently? I thought a saw new Fear Factory CDs on shelves at Best Buy a while ago. :huh: :unsure:

I also heard that Toxikk is going to go see them live soon. :cool: Any word on where this live tour is at and who else is in it? I thought I heard Slipknot is touring with them as well. :punk:

that owns! anita a ff fan!

hell yeah.

anyways, ryan. just get all the albums. each has its own style and sound.

not sure why, but they kinda dropped the idea of each album showing how machines will overrule humans.

i remember back in the day they said that each album would be different in a sense that it would simulate machines taking over.

im glad that it didnt, cuz it would prolly turn into techno metal like the berzerker or something.

but archetype STILL owns me.

well, bro, technically it still does

machines taking over= industry flooded with nu-metal pop....and thats what "Archetype" is mostly about

the Machine is the industry...word?

right, but back in the day, they were referring to the sound also.

everything.

im just glad christian stayed and picked up an axe. and their new bassist is pretty coo.

    • I like Tidal, but it still does not control devices from the mobile/app and still no surround support. And yeah re: above comment I still get a lot of network errors and I am on a 4/4 Gbit Fiber connection.
    • Aren`t "security features" and "AI model that can see your screen" a tad diametric!
    • Samsung, Amazon extend 990 PRO 2TB NVMe SSD deal beyond Prime Day 2026 by Sayan Sen Recently, we had Amazon's Prime Day 2026 sales wherein there were several great deals including on SSDs. One of those discounted components was the Samsung 990 PRO SSD as the 2TB variant of it was selling for $370, a very good price after a long time. Although that deal was supposed to expire today, Amazon has now extended that sale further (purchase link under the specs table down below). The 990 PRO is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD and still one of the fastest drives available today for under $400. Speaking of fast, sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s, respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS, respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash, and it too is TLC. It packs 2 gigs of LPDDR4 DRAM cache, which helps the random performance. The endurance rating for this is 1200 TBW (terabytes written), which should be sufficient for most users. The Samsung 990 PRO is compatible with the PlayStation 5, but if you are going to use the 990 PRO on a PC, check out the Samsung Magician app that lets you track your drive's health, update its firmware, customize various settings, and more. The technical specs of the Samsung 990 PRO 2TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Form Factor M.2 2280 Interface PCIe Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 2.0 NAND Flash Samsung V-NAND TLC Controller Samsung In-house Controller Cache Memory Samsung 2GB Low Power DDR4 SDRAM Sequential Read Speed Up to 7,450 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 6,900 MB/s Random Read (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,400,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,550,000 IOPS Random Read (4KB, QD1) Up to 22,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD1) Up to 80,000 IOPS Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C Reliability (MTBF) 1.5 Million Hours Endurance 1,200 TBW (Total Bytes Written) Get it at the link below: Samsung 990 PRO SSD 2TB NVMe SSD (MZ-V9P2T0B/AM): $369.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
