"There is a main character who is called "The Industrialist"" states singer Burton C. Bell, referring to the character at the heart of songs like "God Eater" or "Virus of Faith". 

Hes a machine that has become self-aware and becomes a catalyst for change. The album has the loose concept of a murder plot, with the realization that the automaton is becoming more human each day. The last track on the album "Human Augmentation" is moment where machine becomes human and realizes its own humanity. Thats a thought thats very key to the Fear Factory universe." 

 

MARKETING & PROMOTION / SELLING POINTS

 

"The Industrialist" is the 9th album from one of the most influential Industrial Metal bands! 

Fear Factorys musical and lyrical vision of Future Shock is the beating machine heart of THE INDUSTRIALIST. 

There is a very obvious storyline rooted both in forward thinking science fiction but also in contemporary events including the Occupy Wall Street and Anonymous Movements. 

Produced by Rhys Fulber (Front Line Assembly)
