Fear Factory have released Detonizer, the second song from the line up that Dino Cazares assembled around Milo Silvestro.
Roboticist came in August and was the first thing anyone had heard from Silvestro on vocals and Pete Webber on drums. Tony Campos plays bass on both. Detonizer went to SiriusXM Liquid Metal before it went anywhere else, which is the same route Roboticist took.
What has still not been said is what album these belong to. Cazares has talked about the record for months, has called it diverse, and has said Campos played every bass part on it, which has never happened before on a Fear Factory album. There is no title and no date.
Two singles with no record behind them is a slow way to come back, and this band have reasons to be careful. The last album with Burton C. Bell was in 2015 and the decade since has been mostly legal and mostly public.
Meanwhile the tour is an anniversary one, built around Soul of a New Machine, the record that started all of it.
