Industrial metal legends Fear Factory are returning to the U.S. stage this fall with the “Cybernetic Domination” tour, featuring support from Darkest Hour and up-and-coming metal act Brotality. The tour is set to kick off in mid-November, following Fear Factory’s co-headlining trek with masked Cleveland metallers Mushroomhead.
Fans will get a chance to see the band play both familiar cities and new stops on this run, culminating in a special two-night event in Los Angeles at the iconic Whisky a Go Go, where Fear Factory will perform two of their classic albums in full, Demanufacture and Obsolete.
Guitarist Dino Cazares shared his excitement about the tour: “We’re hitting places we haven’t played in a while, and we can’t wait to play with our friends in Darkest Hour and the newcomers Brotality.
“The tour launches in Wichita, Kansas and ending in our hometown Los Angeles. To close it out, Fear Factory will perform TWO nights at the legendary Whisky A Go Go, two completely different albums in its entirety. First night Demanufacture, second night Obsolete (Los Angeles only).
“Pick up something at our merch table and we’ll gladly sign it and take photos with you after the show (wherever the venue allows it).”
In addition to the live shows, Fear Factory is preparing to release a long-awaited new studio album later this year via Nuclear Blast. This upcoming LP will be the first to feature the band’s latest lineup additions: vocalist Milo Silvestro and drummer Pete Webber, both of whom have been performing with the band for over three years.
