It wasn't long ago Fear Factory were claiming that "the soul of this machine has improved", following the departure of founding member, axe-man Dino. A questionable album and a legal case later, and Mechanize appears to be the band's seventh and latest full-length. Raymond and Christian do not feature on this album, Dino is back with his multiple-string guitar for the first time since Digimortal. For the first time ever the band also sees a new drummer, going by that familiar name of Gene Hoglan. Read more ›› |

One of the best comeback albums you will hear. A bold claim but this album has the quality that can back up such words. Fear Factory mark their return with a purpose that had been missing since Obsolete, more than making up for their absence. From beginning to end, you get an album that makes up for lost time and then some. This album is just an unrelenting barrage of industrial metal attacks that will bombard your senses relentlessly until you're brought back to reality with the ambient refrains that end "Final Exit", serving as a soft landing to see the album out. If you like your metal heavy and in your face, then this is an album for you. Read more ›› |

For me Christploitation is the best track of the album.. I like this track very much.. I never even thought about Fear Factory without Raymond Herrera, but Gene Hoglan has done the job so well..

Is this real Fear Factory? Or shell-of-themselves Fear Factory? EDIT: Listened to Industrial Discipline, definitely sounds like Demanufacture-era, awesome

Yeah. Very good album, kinda back to the peak of their carrer on some early 90ths albums.. Althou I really liked their new direction as well (Designing the Enemy and Final Exit are the closer we get from that phase), this is a good comeback. Just like Paradise Lost and a whole bunch of bands, they release something heavier and in contact with their roots after a sequence of contested albuns. Christploitation, Controlled Demolition and Final Exit are my highlights.

Posts: 8004 Written by [user id=4365] on 16.07.2010 at 13:38 I definitely agree with you. The first four songs are cool but the album really climaxes with Christploitation and this creepy piano sound. The second half of the album is rather dull after this song.

Posts: 6675 Written by Hamird on 05.02.2010 at 19:54 Agreed. Ive only listened to the album once in full, which was when it first came out. (I'll listen to it again before giving my rating  )And although I liked a fair few tracks on the album, ''Christploitation" was really the only one which stuck out to me as being a truly classic Fear Factory track. \m/

With this album has proved that they needed Dino Cazares again, the true key to making this great album. Long live to Fear Factory

I became sad when Herrera and Olde Wolbers left the band, but Hoglan and Stroud were spectacular substitutes. I think this album a little "happy" than Demanufacture or Archetipe, but in a long time i fell that the guys were having a lot lot of fun in the studio. Great album, one of the best industrial metal ever.
