FEAR FACTORY Announce U.S. Dates For The World Industrialist Tour 2012!

Legendary Metal manipulators FEAR FACTORY are pleased to announce a U.S. headlining tour next month. Set to commence on August 1 in Fresno, California, the next segment of the "The World Industrialist Tour 2012" will pummel its way across the country and includes a stop at this year’s Juggalo Gathering in Cave In Rock, Illinois alongside Soulfly, Static X, DMX, Onyx, and George Clinton among others. Additional dates will be announced in the coming days. Comments guitarist Dino Cazares: “We are really looking forward to getting back on tour to play classic FEAR FACTORY songs and NEW songs from The Industrialist!”

This will mark the FEAR FACTORY’s first official trek in support of 'The Industrialist', unleashed to North American fans June 5 via Candlelight Records. The second album written by Cazares and vocalist Burton C. Bell since reuniting in 2009 after a seven-year split., 'The Industrialist' debuted on Billboard’s Top 200 chart at position 38 and maintained the #1 spot on the CMJ charts for three consecutive weeks. Commended by Revolver Magazine in a 4/5 review for offering up “the same pulsating, angry urgency of old…nicely counterbalanced by some incredibly deft melodies,” while Metal Underground opined: “Burton C. Bell’s vocal harmonies, the group’s dynamics, Dino’s guitar play and, of course, the tightness of the rhythm section -- featuring newcomer Matt DeVries of Chimaira fame on bass -- was created with such superb craftsmanship that the album is in constant rotation in my brain, leading to play after play in the physical world, ” 'The Industrialist' continues to floor fans and critics internationally.
