Fear Factory T-ShirTS

Fear Factory is a Los Angeles, California based metal band. Fear Factory formed in 1990 and have since released seven full-length albums and a number of singles and remixes, over the course of which they have evolved from a succession of, as well as steadily pioneered a hybrid of, the styles of death metal, industrial metal, groove metal and alternative metal; the resultant techniques in sound and vocal styles proving to be enormously influential on the extreme metal scene from the mid-90s and onwards. Fear Factory's most recent album, Transgression, described as a more experimental and atypical effort, has also contained elements of pop music and progressive metal.

Fear Factory had disbanded in March 2002 following some internal disputes, but they reformed later that year minus founding member Dino Cazares and with the addition of live bassist, Byron Stroud.

Fear Factory has toured with the likes of Black Sabbath, Pantera, Iron Maiden, Slayer, Megadeth, Dream Theater, Mastodon, Misery Index and Rammstein; performed at three Ozzfests as well as the inaugural Gigantour and has had singles in the US Mainstream Rock Top 40 and albums in the Billboard Top 40, 100 and 200. Fear Factory are currently (mid2007) in the pre-production stages of the recording of a new full-length album and, for the time being, Fear Factory are functioning independent of a record label. Fear Factory are also working on a new remix album, tentatively due later in 2007.
