Recoded

Description

A collection of remixes of tracks from the latest album by the band "Aggression Continuum". "Recoded" is the first remix album by FEAR FACTORY since "Remanufacture" in 1997. The cover was created by Anthony Clarkson, who has previously worked on the albums "Mechanize" (2010), "The Industrialist" (2012), and "Genexus" from 2015. The mixing and mastering were done by Damien Rainaud. The effort Dino Cazares himself. Fear Factory's records have a cinematic scope; soundscapes echoing the post-apocalyptic dystopian futures found in classic science fiction literature and films, from Ray Bradbury to Blade Runner. 'Recoded' offers reimagined versions of songs from their tenth studio offering, 'Aggression Continuum'. Just like 'Remanufacture', their previously successful crossover release, 'Recoded' takes a moment to focus on the industrial and dark side of the band, as well as their metal roots. Whatever happens, Fear Factory will be there, a soundtrack for the uncertain times of humanity to come. The size of Fear Factory's bootprint on the neck of heavy metal cannot be overstated. Releasing influential albums with devastating anthems for over 30 years, Fear Factory is widely recognized as both crucial and innovative in extreme metal circles. Fear Factory has crafted, deconstructed, and rebuilt a sound that resonates across multiple sub-genres. They have perfected an explosive blend of staccato stripping riffs, industrial-tinged drumming, electronic flourishes, and a scream/clean singing dichotomy, all of which have become staples of heavy music since the band first emerged in L.A. Fear Factory is a headliner at major festivals; has won several international sales chart awards; toured with Black Sabbath, Slayer, Iron Maiden, and Metallica; and influenced generations of bands. But it is the band's commitment to relentless extremity and creative authenticity that has secured its place in heavy metal history, from the highly revered 'Demanufacture' to the equally dominant 'Genexus'. Songs like "Zero Signal", "Shock", and "Fear Campaign" are instantly recognizable anthems, as much a part of the musical DNA of modern metal subculture as the riffs and the scream-singing style they contain.
