Fear Factory is an American heavy metal band. Formed in 1989, they have released seven full-length albums and a number of singles and remixes. Over the course of their career they have evolved from a succession of styles, as well as steadily pioneered a combination of the styles death metal, groove metal, thrash metal and industrial metal. The resultant sound proved to be enormously influential on the metal scene from the mid-90s and onwards. Fear Factory disbanded in March 2002 following some internal disputes, but they reformed later that year minus founding member Dino Cazares, adding bassist Byron Stroud, and casting then-bassist Christian Olde Wolbers as guitarist. Fear Is the Mindkiller is a remix EP of the first album Soul of a New Machine, released on April 14, 1993 by Roadrunner Records. Remixes 1-5 were remixed by Rhys Fulber and Bill Leeb of Front Line Assembly. The title of the record is a quote from "Litany against fear", a fictional incantation from Dune, the science fiction novel written by Frank Herbert. 01 - Martyr [Suffer Bastard Mix] 02 - Self Immolation [Vein Tap Mix] 03 - Scapegoat [Pigfuck Mix] 04 - Scumgrief [Deep Dub Trauma Mix] 05 - Self Immolation [Liquid Sky Mix] LINK
