The wait for new Fear Factory continues, but at least there's clearly progress being made! According to the band's Twitter, Fear Factory is currently working out a new record deal for their upcoming material.
Fear Factory was originally slated to release a new song in February 2023 that would finally unveil whoever is replacing longtime vocalist Burton C. Bell, though now the band states that fans should "expect delays in releasing new material." So stay tuned for more information.
In the meantime, Fear Factory will release a remix album titled Recoded on October 28. The album is all remixed songs from their 2020 record Aggression Continuum and is the band's first remix album since 1997's Remanufacture. The record runs as follows:
- "Adapt Or Die" (Intro Narrative By Jake Stern, Sound FX By Zardonic)
- "Hatred Will Prevail" ("Monolith" Remix By Rhys Fulber)
- "Disobey" ("Disruptor" Remix By Zardonic)
- "I Am the Nightrider" ("Fuel Injected Suicide Machine" Remix By Dualized/Zardonic)
- "Path to Salvation" ("Purity" Remix By Rhys Fulber)
- "Worthless" ("End of Line" Remix By Zardonic)
- "Empires Fall" ("Collapse" Remix By Tyrant Of Death)
- "System Assassin" ("Aggression Continuum" Remix By Rhys Fulber)
- "Hypocrisy Of Faith" ("Manufactured Hope" Remix By Rob GEE)
- "This Is My Life" ("Cognitive Dissonance" Remix By Zardonic)
- "Recoded" ("Recode" Remix By Blush_Response)
Vinyl bonus tracks:
- "Turbo Factory" ("End Of Line" Remix by Turboslash)
- "Break Off" ("Disruptor" Remix by Rhys Fulber)
Fear Factory is also set to release a reissue of their 2012 album The Industrialist featuring current Fear Factory drummer Mike Heller replacing all the original album's programmed drums, as well as bonus tracks including original album closer "Enhanced Reality."
