FEAR FACTORY's CHRISTIAN OLDE WOLBERS Offering Private Guitar Lessons

July 28, 2008

Christian Olde Wolbers of FEAR FACTORY is offering private guitar lessons in the Los Angeles area. "Any guitarists of bassists that wanna shape up on some of the FF-style playing and techniques, feel free to hit up Christian's MySpace page," reads a posting on the FEAR FACTORY MySpace blog.

Guitar and bass lessons are $50 an hour.

According to FEAR FACTORY's official MySpace page, the long-running Los Angeles-based metal band will release a new album and embark on a world tour in 2009. No further information is available.

FEAR FACTORY is currently on hiatus while the band's frontman, Burton C. Bell, focuses his attention on the ASCENSION OF THE WATCHERS project, which recently inked a deal with MINISTRY mainman Al Jourgensen's 13th Planet Records.

FEAR FACTORY is presently unsigned, having parted ways with Liquid 8 Records, the label that issued the group's last two albums — 2004's "Archetype" and 2005's "Transgression".

"Transgression" was produced by Toby Wright (ALICE IN CHAINS, KORN, METALLICA).

FEAR FACTORY members Raymond Herrera (drums) and Christian Olde Wolbers (guitar) recently joined forces with THREAT SIGNAL vocalist Jon Howard in a new group called ARKAEA. The band's as-yet-untitled debut is due this fall on Koch Records. Herrera and Olde Wolbers are also collaborating with former DAMAGEPLAN singer/HALFORD guitarist Patrick Lachman in a project called BURN IT ALL. That band is currently shopping a four-song demo to interested labels.
