Industrial metal band Fear Factory has announced that their new studio album will be titled Genexus and will be released on August 7th via Nuclear Blast Entertainment. The album was co-produced by Rhys Fulber alongside guitarist Dino Cazares and vocalist Burton C. Bell and was mixed by Andy Sneap.
Cazares explains:
The sensation of finalizing our newest album is one of relief and joy, wrapped within a massive whirlwind of excitement.
We really feel this is a very special Fear Factory album. While being careful not to replicate ourselves, this album still has a very classic Fear Factory vibe that we feel will appease both old and new fans. The aggressive, melodic and industrial elements are all intact and shine more than ever.
Burt and I produced the album with Rhys Fulber co-producing. Damien Rainuad and Giuseppe Bassi handled most of the keys and pre-production. We also enlisted the masterful metallic skills of Andy Sneap for an amazing mixing job!
We would like to thank everyone who has been a big part in the making of this record. We can’t wait for everybody to hear it.
The band’s last album was 2012’s The Industrialist (review).
