It's really cool to be writing a new record. We are all feeling very positive and it's moving quickly since we have overcome some major obstacles. Now we can work on a fucking great album. 2005 is the year of Transgression for FEAR FACTORY!
Now are you even more anxious for the release? Well you can get a preview of what's to come of Transgression when you play the new game, RAINBOW SIX LOCKDOWN, which features a track from Transgression entitled, Lockdown, as well as scores created by the band throughout the menus. Apart from contributing music to RAINBOW SIX LOCKDOWN, drummer Raymond Herrera's production company 3volution Productions, has produced the soundtrack to the Tom Clancy RAINBOW SIX LOCKDOWN game, which will include those FEAR FACTORY tracks, and many other songs from various bands, to be released on Calvin/Trillion Records on August 3, 2005.
Fans will get to hear some of the new FEAR FACTORY tracks this summer on Dave Mustaine's GIGANTOUR. Christian Olde Wolbers, who will be slaying fans on the GIGANTOUR tour this summer with his new JACKSON signature series guitars and Krankenstein amps, states, We're really excited about doing a big summer tour - we haven't done that since we headlined the side stage of the Ozzfest tour in 98. I'm happy to convert the older and young metal fans of the GIGANTOUR. Once again Dave has put together a slamming summer tour! I know that most people won't give a crap, but I thought that the FF fans from MKO would like to see this, if they haven't. I'm really looking forward to this new record, and I hope it doesn't turn out the way that Digimortal did.
