- After waiting for what feels like an eternity, FEAR FACTORY has finally announced their new vocalist, Milo Silvestro, who of course is replacing the beloved longtime frontman Burton C. Bell. Today, we discuss the events that have transpired throughout the band's tumultuous history that led to band leader Dino Cazares needing to find a replacement, as well as the demise of the band's classic lineup of Burton, Dino, Christian Olde Wolbers and Raymond Herrera.

Considering what an absolute train wreck this band is behind the scenes, it's amazing how much good music they have managed to give us.
Well stated.
@@chriscampbell9191Dino wrote ALL the music except when he wasn't in the band. People complain about him and don't realize it was his band he created. All music he created
@@TheRealOne-hg1fl Understood. As a guitar player, it was the music of FF that grabbed me before the lyrical content did. Although when Burton was in his prime, FF were unstoppable....
also add to the FACT Burton's voice was broken and basically gone. he had more issues with cleans, and his harsh vocals were weak. he had many great years though where his voice was strong. Milo is great, going to be interesting seeing and hearing his first gig
Dino better get Milo a English teacher cause his clean vocals are off putting cause how you say he don't speak a the English.
@watcherzero3021 they're fine and he does speak English. Just because his accent, doesn't mean he cannot speak English. You Racist moron
In my honest oppinion,idgaf what the drama is about or was.I have gotten to meet Burton and Dino years ago for World Industrialist Tour 2012 at the Launchpad in Albq,NM.Hearing Burton's voice and lyrics in FF in general,he cant ever be replaced.Burton will awlays be the way,he is the industrialist,and without Burton,there is no FF and can never be Mechanized.I still have respect for "FF" now and will always be open to hearing Dino's new work and everything.I will always have equal respect for Burton and Dino because they are the Fear Factory's one and only industrial pioneers!!!! I support them both equally and they both will always be one of my top inspirations into becoming a soul of a new machine!!
I've seen them at the Launchpad and The Sunshine. Sad that my favorite band just made me dislike Dino.
FF has been my favorite band since high school back in 96 when I discovered them. I hate the idea that Burton is gone but if it’s true his heart wasn’t in it. Then it’s for the better. If this newly reformed FF gets back to the story we all loved Man vs Machine then I’m down. I’d rather new tracks drop then a band of this caliber to go down in history like that. They inspired soo many and started a whole thing and soo much more.
Fear factory is no more without Burton. He's not a great singer, but his lyrics are the whole theme of the band.
People change glad that I seen them twice on tour this year 🤟
He's not a great live vocalist, but his role in the band was definitely critical to it's success.
Burton was a great singer, now his vocal cords are damaged from his singing style as well as having been a smoker.
I think it's silly for people to criticize Burton on his voice when you probably have no idea the wear and tear that does on your throat, then go and do that for over 20 years and let's see how your voice would sound doing shows multiple times in the same week. The shit ain't easy
🤣🤣 Not a good singer? have you even listened to the first 4 albums you @!#*!#, one of the greatest and pioneering vocalists metal has ever had.
Weird i preferred the instrumentals
Fortunately the drama came to Milo. What a killer current lineup. They are fantastic live again.
New guy is great.
They need to do a record or ep with him ASAP as possible.
I'm really curious about the lyrics going forward.
Milo is doing an amazing job
Very messy. But this happens. People change and it’s hard to keep everyone together. I dunno who’s right or wrong, but I love their music. Thanks for the video.
Always drama in the music world! Great to hear from you Karl - appreciate it!
There is no replacing Bell. The vocals and lyrics were FF.
And there is no way in hell Archetype is better than Obsolete.
There's no replacing any of em.
This band was doomed to be a shell of itself post-Digimortal.
did he have to really have to mention that his fiance wanted him to demanufacture her insides?
A bit uncalled for.
i've never heard Archetype been prefered over Obselete.
It hasn't aged well but in 2004 it actually was pretty amazing to me
It's a tough call, both great albums, but Archetype is my fave
Seen them twice with Milo...fucking amazing...cool dude...going a 3rd time to Anaheim in august
excellent vid and great breakdown. I've been a FF fan since the beginning and the new guy nails it! Still not the same though... I'll be seeing them in April (Green Bay), that whole lineup could be a multiple part video! It's the tour of new vocalist kinda
Saw Fear Factory in Argentina last week. The new singer is amazing.
Milo is a good vocalist and I can hear why Dino chose him to continue FF with. I got into metal music around 1995 and Demanufacture is still one of my favorite albums. It just had something magical. I loved that FF lineup and I'm happy I saw them live in the late 90s. It's a shame that greed can destroy so many good things. Some parts of the machine are just irreplacable.
Love this recap...Milo is doing a great job so far
….good reportage contribution , you nailed it .
Milo (is not Burton but he) is alright so far , let’s see how long he stay.
Great video. But NO way Archetype is better than Obsolete or Demanufacture. Gene The Atomic Clock shat on the experience with the band in one of his interviews, they gave the man tinnitus.
OMG YES! Thank you! I was staggered I had to scroll down as far as I did in the comments to call this out! Which fans rate Archetype? Seriously? Obsolete and Demanufacture AND Soul of a new machine shit all over Archetype. Drones is elite, as is Human Shields and Cyberwaste is good too. All of Obsolete is elite or good. All of Demanufacture is elite.
Archetype... smh
Burton, Raymond, Christian, and Andrew (or Byron) should get together and form a band called Terror Plant.
Raymond and Christian hate Burton now though. Ever since he stabbed them in the back and sided with Dino in 2009.
@xlixity they should forgive him and reform a band against Dino, called "Riposte" or counter-attack.
Milo can sing.
Is Burton getting paid royalties going forward? I see they are reissuing albums on vinyl and I hear FF music all over the internet these days. I want to continue to support both sides, but only if BCB is getting his fair share for his past efforts.
I'm sure I've heard that reissues or remasters are often used to freeze out certain parties from royalties. If that is true and also Dino is now the sole owner of the FF name, then it's possible he is reissuing to gain full control of royalties.
So much i didnt know about one of my Fav bands ever. Liked and subbed. :)
Good review history of this band man 👍🏻💪🏻
Thanks!
Really hate when good bands do this in-fighting and end up screwing their entire careers
Im torn. I like it all. The new lineup sounds amazing live recently.
What led to fear factory replacing Burton? Um…he left the group *face palm
Great video man.
Thank you!
Burton had every opportunity to come back to FF, Dino asked him multiple times, politely enough, that his place was with the band.. but he wasn't going to fucking beg.
An ultimatum was laid down, Dino continues with his career of iconic riffs. End of.
you sound as fat as dino
Always loved fear factory hopeful silvestro can bring in his sound
The new singer is good but Burton C Bell is the heart from fear factory and cant never replace i saw the live with the album release from Mechanize and Genexus show was awesome never forget both album was great but after the release the last album i was exiting but and the end disappoint its really really bad without burton i will give milo a shot but Fear Factory is Burton C Bell
I'm going to see FF next month in Chicago hopefully it's a good show.
I don't blame Dino for wanting to keep FF going, at his age it's easier to keep making money off the brand then to start all over again. It takes too long for new bands to get going and get a following, and promoters don't care who's in a band they book by the band name.
good video!
Thanks!
Nah Dino is the money hungry one. Look at what Hoglan said about his FF situation. And look at what the members of devine heresy states about Dino.
great vid
Thanks so much!
Good vid sport
That's too bad Burton and Dino had a falling out, that much time only reveals more and more truth so I respect Burton was pretty confident about moving on.
Epic "creative" chapter in their musician history, can't deny that part.
Sometimes time heals too, I've gotten back in touch with friends I didn't talk to for years - it happens, people change.
Bands are now business and people come and go. Fans just gotta take it and either deal with it or move on. Nothing we can do about it and I don't care. I just like what I like and I'll pay for what I want to pay for in music and or tickets. If not then I won't. As far as Fear Factory I'm all in with the new singer and I've been listening and watching all the interviews and it's cool. As far as I'm concerned Static-X, Dope and other bands are all on the same page so some people in the Fear Factory members might have some mixed emotions as well as fans and yeah it's a drama mess but right now it's all working out and it sucks the old members are out. What you see is what you get and we'll see what comes about it in the next few weeks. If it's a success they we all know Dino was right and legit but it if not then the other dudes have a point. Time will tell but I'm rooting for Dino as he's a business man as well as Edsel from Dope as they all know what's up.
You have an incredibly good speaking voice dude, great video too!
Diabeetus
BRUUUUUUH. That outro quote is METAL AS FUCK
🤘🏻
It’s crazy to think all the songs with amazing n some of my favorite ever vocals lyrics, that burtons heart wasn’t into it and he came up with that stuff thinking”it’s good enough for my position” he’s my favorite singer ever, very very influential in a lot of top tier amazing bands that use gutteral growls/screaming and clean, melodic vocals like killswitch engage, slipknot, in flames, and as I lay dying just to name a few
Damn that's confusing, I'ma fan of FF and hed pe, what I noticed about hed pe is he went through a lot of band members over the years. Hope Burton make that money back.
They rock
I remember head pe
See how fiercely each one fought for the brand? Not such an underrated name after all, is it?
"My fiancé is waiting for me to demanufacture her insides" 😂 wooooowww
Caught me off guard 🤣🤣
XD
Thx for preparing
you are a professional commentator
Thank you!
I would love to see Herrera and Wolbers focus on a different brand. Hire a new bass player and another guitar player for some guitar duo like MEGADETH. I’d love to see Howard Jones in the mix.
this is like van halen vs van hagar... personally there is only van halen when i think about their music, this feels like people will react in a similar fashion. sometimes the OG lineup can never be topped.
I'm pretty sure Byron Stroud and Gene Hoglan left at the same time. Gene actually said it was the one band he would never join, he only joined because Byron said they needed him to make it work. The two of them were waiting to get called into the studio, only to hear the next album arrive with programmed drums. They concluded that Burton and Dino just wanted to keep all the money, and left together
Dino and Burt were deep in lawsuits and going broke, and Gene expected to be paid more. They couldn't afford him.
@@Salomon_G That's interesting because Gene said he came super cheap. There definitely seems to be a theme of no money in that band
Yup all drama during mechanize to industrialist. Byron even said thr was bad times and stuff in a interview why he left
Losing Gene Hoglan was the stupidest thing Dino and Burt did.
If anyone could replace or surpass Herrera's mechanical precision, that was the man. I still shed a tear for what could've been.
@@xlixity Again, they couldn't afford him. They're lucky they got him for one record. One of their best.
Burton Dino Heller and Tony were a Nice line up, even i met them at the early years, i think agression continuum is the last Fear Factory release that fits the FF spirit, long live Burton, Dino, Raymond, OW and the others, ❤
I love how everyone has to put the C. in Burton’s name when they say it like that’s how he introduces himself. Same with Maynard James. Like we wouldn’t know who these people were if we didn’t include some portion of their middle name. 😂
I saw them recently, great setlist executed very well.. It's not really FF but better than demanufacturing someone's insides 😂
BE GOOD IF THOSE CONCERNED WOULD LOOK AT
RELEASING ARCHETYPE ON VINYL
"Demanufacture" and "Archetype" are personally in my top 25 albums of all time... but I hate the dick messaging from Burton regarding "Fear Factory is a business." I remember when that came out, I basically tuned out of their stuff moving forward. We all work to make money... but telling your limited consumer base (which we all need to be honest... has been limited for the past 15 years) that this is just a business model is NOT an attractive thing to say unless you're producing the best results consistently.... something FF has struggled with.
Dino definitely has some issues as well but I just remember that Burton has a habit of giving up often and sounding like a dick VERY often. I guess this comment was the thing that soured them enough for me to stop tuning into their newer stuff.
I agree, those albums are the best and Archetype remains one of my all time favorites.
I've really tried to wrap my head around the legal situation involving the band. From what it sounds like, Burton reconciled with Dino and then tried to start a band under the name Fear Factory which obviously you can't legally do when you have two other members, Olde Wolbers and Herrera still technically a part of that band. Since it became a stalemate, Wolbers and Herrera said "Okay fine you can continue the band without us but the only way you can do this is by paying us royalties since you are profiting from songs we've written". Then Burton filed for bankruptcy making it so he didn't have to pay them royalties anymore but they came after him again because he can technically still start Fear Factory up again and continue to make money. That's all I can decipher from everything that happened but it's a shame how much the band was torn apart by drama and stupid shit people weren't willing to reconcile over.
Burton settled into that position because that's all its about for Dino. It's all about him, it's all about his vision, it's all about his success. I mean why do you think he continues on with this Frankenstein of an effigy? His riffs aren't even that great anymore, either. FF died when Burton left.
I mean just look at the difference in the character between the two of them. Burton is kind, soft spoken and humble while Dino's a pig (ask female fans that met him), overconfident and arrogant. It's clear to see who is the real issue here, and it's not Burton.
Where is my Lar's gif when I need it? "He left the fucking band!" That's why he was replaced. Maybe you should ask, "Why did Burton C. Bell leave Fear Factory?".
This is a shitty day being a longtime ff fan burton c bell was always the voice of the band and I know bands do it all the time idk if ill be able to listen to them with a new singer and it sucks cause they always put out insanely great album after album now it's pretty much over without him behind the vocals
No it’s not, give the guy a chance damn !
@@STANGm06deGT Just stop dude, the dude barely speaks English how the hell is he gonna pull that off with the clean vocal I have heard him and no it does not fly?
@@watcherzero000 lol yup when he sings resurrection zero signal decent are kinda weird when clean parts. Idk sucks but what can u do
Funny thing is that when Dino put out music in his other projects, Divine Heresy especially, it was better than anything FF put out. In my experience in the several bands ive been in that didnt quite make it, only 1 or 2 of us are capable of making music that will get you noticed, but the rest of the memebers cant handle being told they're pushing out garbage and thus the band fails.
I think that was def part of the dynamic going on. Even people like me who can't stand dino have to admit he is a monster when it comes to putting out great music.
Dude, Gene Hogland was MOST NOTABLE for his work on DEATH - SYMBOLIC .
Shit a brick. I had no idea it was that messed up
Sad!
I think about 20 sec after the fist song, burton was not missed anymore.
Milo killed it! He was amazing! I loved BCB back in the day but Milo is phenomenal
Fear factory is Burton, Raymond herrera, Christian, and dino had his place at one time the FF of 2004 was FF. I will never forget to see dino.
Sues noone ever. Learn from FF. Workout differences.
the new vocalist is awesome
He's awesome playing all of the Songs Burton C Bell Wrote.
@@johnnycage5481 and same hair. Same gestures same movement lol
What a mess of a bend,shame.
11:49 bro 🤣😂🤣
Burton blew out his Fear Factory voice years ago anyway so it would just be painful to witness.
Ha hum 'fuel injected suicide machine'
Agreed, as talented as the band is Burton is the heart and soul of the band.
Nah, he's not Axl Rose or Wayne Static.
Fear Factory Inc. Was the heart and soul. There's a reason why their 90s albums are revolutionary while everything else is milquetoast.
Its not just Fear Factory. All bands are "cancers" as friendship. It is all fake. That is why I gave up.
Lol MySpace. The beginning of the complete end of humanity.
So Tony Campos is playing 2 shows a night, in both FF and Static-X? Sadly both bands are now in zombie mode without their original singers
This is NOT Fear Factory in any way . This is The Dino Cazares project which isnt bad but its not Fear Factory .
And you think Archetype and Transgression was their finest work..
Archetype has 2 or 3 good tunes.
Transgression had 2 good tunes, and they were both covers.
You could blatantly tell that Dino was missing from those two albums..
Well said. Couldn't have said it better. Archetyp and Transgression are amazing. Funny enough even without Dino lol. I wonder what the new album without B.C.B. will be like. The true test for Dino project/
I grew up seeing FF. I've seen all line ups. Its good to see them back. But I can't forget when I was a kid of 16 and Dino was a total dick to me and my friends outside the back of Roseland in NY.
No way that is a epic show too was it 99 or later
@@jeffarab4947 I have no idea what you're trying to say.
He had enough of Dinos shit
Long Live Prodigy Vocallist=King BurtonC.Bell.
Burt quit.....Plain and simple.....
It seems to be Dino is the problem, he was out when Archetype came out why did they let him back in
Without Burton C Bell, it just doesn't work. BCB is Fear Factory.
Yeah it sucks but yes it can work, and will work !
@@STANGm06deGT yet to be seen
I'll always prefer Burton Bell as the singer but I'm still willing to give the new singer a chance
@@STANGm06deGT How so Milo's clean vocals are not on par due to the fact of his poor English it does not sound right just a plain fact man. I would rather listen to Burton on a bad day than this dude.
“It just doesn’t work” they haven’t even done a single thing with Milo yet, give the fuckin dude a chance Jesus
Burton was a monster! He was amazing, but I’ve seen where he needed to stop and heal his voice. It’s sad. He didn’t take breaks I feel to properly take care of that amazing voice. What they did without Dino was amazing, just love this band. I hope he will come back even if not fear factory. All the music is amazing, but I would love to see Christian write some stuff with Dino, but that will never happen.
Haven't listened to Fear Factory since Obsolete. Demanufacture was there best by a long shot for me. Didn't like Archetype. Fear Factory is just a tribute band now.
You missed out if you didn’t listen to Mechanize.
Damn, you didn't like Archetype? It's like their 3rd best
you need to listen to Mechanize and the Industrialist (& maybe half of Genexus..)
Mechanize is awesome love that and sucks they don't play many songs from it which they should agression continuum is not bad but not the best
Dino got kicked out then came back and called it "his" band and ruined everything. Burt is Fear Factory and his new single is fantastic. Fear Factory without burt sounds like a cover band.
Yeah I dig the new single and wasn’t expecting it so it was a surprise. Fear factory is my favorite band but haven’t listened to the new singer or have any opinions on it. I doubt I will. Very much looking forward to new stuff from Burt
@@dly2138saw them live with machine head a few days ago. They were great!
Yeah, they should have never let the infection back in after he was removed
What the hell are you talking about lol? Burton tried to fool the court and got the book thrown at him. If anything we should thank Dino for keeping the machine alive and recording 4 solid albums.,
Dino started the band. It was his band. Band broke up and what did he do? Created more music than the other guys combined. Divine Heresy, Assesino, Roadrunner United.
Wow. A guy in his bedroom pulling info from wikipedia and the likes. Remarkable.
Sorry to disappoint, but my bedroom is actually on the other side of the wall behind me.
That's 100% more that you've ever done dude.
How do you know that....dude? @@Syklonus
Imagine how cringe your brain must be if this is where it went.
Dino has watered down the beer from the Beer Factory too much for my liking
🍺 🏭 🚿
Burton C. Bell is a narcissist. Burton was at fault for like 80% of the Fear Factory drama, but he tries to make it out like he's the victim. Burton intentionally didn't mention the settlement with Raymond and Christian when he filed for bankruptcy.
Gene Holgan was replaced by a drum machine. Mike Heller didn't join Fear Factory until like 2015
FINALLY someone says it!!
Yes, I agree, first in 2002 he complained about Dino, and quit because he don't like Dino anymore then suddenly in 2009 he's got "Change of Heart". And I understand why Christian and Raymond don't want to be part of this anymore. Than on 2021 Burt again leave because he hates Dino. I've met Dino, speak to him, he was nice to me, maybe he got good Day, but if someone is Jerk and You quit, You don't come back, people change, but not drastically.
Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion... But I just can't see how Milo could take on writing lyrics and bringing soul to the music in any way near what Burton did. So far it just sounds like a bad cover band when they're playing live, remember he is a "fan" first and foremost. It doesn't matter if he is described as a "multi-instrumentalist" or is coming from a "musical family", that doesn't equal originality or that he is a better musician than anyone else. So far he is trying too hard to be something he obviously isn't and might never be. Only time will tell if this works or not but I have a feeling that the shoes were too big to fill after all.
He es a better vocalist than burton and can hit the notes live without autotune. He delivers whats on the record without faking or mimicing, so I'm happy and can't wait to see them live.
Yeah and does he actually have the right knowledge and attitude to write anti new world order transhumanist lyrics? although Burton turned out to be a total hypocrite after all
Archetype is a perfect example of how good Burt C Bell is with out Dino. If Milo was anywhere near as good a writer or front man with out doing covers, we would of heard of him already. Milo is just a worker that Dino can control.
@@johnnycage5481 lolol pretty much hahahaha
Good point I agree love ff and milo is doing great covering COVERING burtons songs lyrics anyone can cover if u have good vocals voice. What I wanna know is can he write some good lyrics man vs machine and computer cyber threats and man is obsolete to A I. Because burton really did some amazing lyrics and I don't think u can top off what he wrote in those legendary albums ....
The new guy sounds more like Burton than Burton.
Let me say that I really wanted to like fear factory for like 15 years now. But Burton c bell in my opinion was the problem and he was a trash singer
As far as I'm concerned, Dino IS Fear Factory. I just saw them live last weekend and they were awesome and Milo is a perfect fit.
Just saw them last night and Milo was amazing, can’t wait for an album so we can hear more
I disagree. While it is his band, it's not the same without the original lineup. They were all equal contributors to what led to their success. I mean what would Dino have without Burton's powerful lyrics - songs about killer robots and whatnot? I mean come on.😄
Saw them a few days ago. They were awesome!
Sometimes a sole member is the band like in Tony Iommi in Black Sabbath, Dave Mustaine in Megadeth, etc. But in Fear Factory you had a era where Dino wasn't in the band and now refuses to acknowledge that time period.
Dino's not FF. He's an overfed guitarist who has betrayed, conned, and cut the other band members out of the group they all formed together.
god these guys had alot of members
Not really. Theirs a lot worse bands out there with more replacing members.
@@Death17912 AC/DC got a fuck ton
Fear factory is dead. Without you Burton, Christian and Raymond fear factory is dead.
The new singer has the voice to do FF justice, if his melodic voice isn't quite there, the lyrics however can't be replaced, and Bell's lyrics made FF.
Had the chance to see them live last month and I can tell you FF is in a far better shape now compared to 2016 when I saw them at Bloodstock. Burton is one of my favorite metal singer but he just can't sing live since 10 years and everybody seems to ignore that fact.
Dino Cazares is the Jon Taffer of metal. He's a Boss. You walk with him, or you go out. It's normal that a person with a strong personality cannot live with another Alpha.
Dino spit on the very terrifying King Fowley from Deceased at a gig, acted like a tough guy, and then ran away to his security.
This is a feller that has made terrible decisions his entire adult life.
The Heart&Soul of FearFactory= KingBurton C.Bell.End of Line.
It’s simple: they all disliked Dino, that’s how Archetype got out.
Dino was kicked out, lawsuits happened, they LOST the FF trademark to LAWYERS, and they all had to pause. Burton didn’t like Dino, his reunion was out of financial necessity (don’t blame him). Dino then started a new band, named it FF. Christy had nothing to do with the breakup. That’s IT from someone who have known these guys since the 90s. The new band is a FF tribute act even though Tony is a great guy.
100%
I don’t think Milo was the right choice imo, from what I’ve heard of him anyway.., Sorry Milo. Guess we just have to see what they put out next
Sound like a Frenchy singing ff
Fear factory would still be a great band if they all collectively got together and got rid of dino, that guy's ego knows no bounds
They did that, and then took him back after Transgression flopped. Besides, Burton can't perform his vocals live anymore.
Dude Arkaea flopped like a saggy pancake. Herrera and Olbers aren't exactly much better than Dino.
THE INFECTION HAS BEEN REMOVED, THE SOUL OF THIS MACHINE HAS IMPROVED
Not really Looks and sounds like a cover band in 2023.
Absolutely not
@@pedroRodriguesMD Agreed. Although as much as I love Burton, he couldn't sing live. I'd rather have a crap Burton performance tho.
Nope, the infection remains, and it's called Cazares. No cure, unfortunately, as it's terminal. Symptoms include fucking over other band members and lying.
@@dvpembertonNo. Dino started the band. Probably angst for him having to work with lazy uncreative guys. That's why he had to write all the music.
Ascension of the Watchers? LOL. All these guys are still edgelords using anti-Biblical messaging. Grow tf up guys.
Arkaea was awesome!
I would've liked more from them
