After the success of Fear
Factory’s latest release, Archetype, which sold over 122,000 copies
within its year of release, the world has no choice but to eagerly anticipate
the next Fear Factory creation. Fear not, the wait won’t be long. Fear
Factory are already working on their next release entitled Transgression
tentatively due out Fans will get to hear some of the
new Fear Factory tracks this summer on Dave Mustaine’s
(Megadeth) Gigantour. Christian Olde Wolbers, who will be slaying
fans on the Gigantour tour this summer with his new
Jackson signature series guitars and Krankenstein
amps, states, “We’re really excited about doing a big summer tour - we haven’t
done that since we headlined the side stage of Ozzfest in '98. I’m happy to
convert the older and young metal fans of the Gigantour.
Once again Dave has put together a slamming summer tour!” Dave Mustaine handpicked the bands
for Gigantour, with a focus on musicianship. “There are a few very successful tours out
each summer and in order to be significant, I knew the first Gigantour had to
make an impact with top bands like Dream Theater, Fear Factory, Dillinger Escape Plan and Nevermore.”
Mustaine wanted to “put together a festival that consisted of positive bands
that play heavy music in a high energy environment.” For more information on tour dates,
