June 20, 2015

The pioneers of industrial-tinged extreme metal, FEAR FACTORY, have released a lyric video for the brand new track entitled "Soul Hacker", at this location. The track comes from their much anticipated metallic masterpiece, Genexus, which will be released worldwide on August 7th via Nuclear Blast Entertainment.

"We chose the song 'Soul Hacker' for the first single cause it's heavy, catchy and has a lot of groove," comments guitarist Dino Cazares. "You can really hear the aggression in Burt's vocals on this one, not to mention on the entire album. We think people are really going to love this song and record; it's super varied, melodic, aggressive and heavy."

Cazares continues: "We wanted to make it a little more interesting than your typical lyric video, so we included some live footage of the band from our last few tours and images of ourselves performing the song on TV screens. Hope you guys like it!"

Genexus was produced by vocalist Burton C. Bell and guitarist Dino Cazares, and co-produced by long-time collaborator Rhys Fulber. The album was mixed by famed British producer and engineer, Andy Sneap (ARCH ENEMY, TESTAMENT, EXODUS, MACHINE HEAD). Artwork was once again handled by artist Anthony Clarkson. Drums on Genexus were performed by Mike Heller (MALIGNANCY) except the track "Soul Hacker", which was performed by Deen Castronovo (JOURNEY, STEVE VAI, CACOPHONY).
