FEAR FACTORY Vocalist Says GIGANTOUR Has Been Treating Them Just 'OK'

August 12, 2005

MTV.com reports: According to FEAR FACTORY frontman Burton C. Bell the Gigantour has been treating them just "OK." The techno-driven metal band's been performing around 6 p.m. each night, but Bell finds "85 percent of the people at these shows are MEGADETH and DREAM THEATER fans, and maybe 15 percent FEAR FACTORY fans." But the small contingent of FACTORY followers seems to be digging the group's new songs, which will be released in the form of "Transgression" on August 23 through Calvin Records. "On this record, we decided to actually get a producer who has some weight in this industry, Toby Wright (METALLICA, ALICE IN CHAINS)," he explained. "We've never worked with a producer of that caliber, and this is the first time I've ever worked with a producer, at least this intently, with the vocal tracks. This record's sonically better than anything we've done in the past." Gigantour runs through September 11 in Portland, Oregon.
