Fear Factory unleashes a new chapter in its relentless industrial metal evolution with the eleventh studio album, “Roboticist”, out on April 9th, 2027, via Nuclear Blast Records.
For more than three decades, industrial metal pioneers Fear Factory have explored the friction between man and machine, tracing the rise of artificial intelligence and humanity’s loss of control over its own creations.
The latest single, “Detonizer”, marks the recording debut of the band’s current line-up featuring vocalist Milo Silvestro, drummer Pete Webber, and bassist Tony Campos. Blending crushing mechanical aggression with a haunting, melodic hook, the track explores a dystopian reality where flesh fails and only consciousness endures.
Watch the official video for “Detonizer” below.
“Cybernetic Industries has seized control of artificial intelligence, orchestrating humanity’s extinction”, states Fear Factory guitarist Dino Cazares of the new album. “The machines have inherited the future. NO BLOOD. NO FLESH. ALL MACHINE. Welcome to the age of Roboticist”.
Produced, engineered, mixed, and mastered by Damien Rainaud, the single arrives alongside a cinematic music video directed by Vincente Cordero and produced by Arion Csihar. System activated: the next chapter of Fear Factory has officially begun.
Fear Factory guitarist Dino Cazares comments: “The future isn’t coming. It’s already here, ‘Roboticist’ is the next evolution of Fear Factory. Man, Machine and the war for what comes next. I can’t wait for everyone to hear the beginning of a new era of Fear Factory”.
