Editorial Reviews
Limited 180gm audiophile vinyl LP pressing including four page booklet. Fear Factory's breakthrough album Obsolete is a sequel to 1995's Demanufacture and a memorable concept album. The metal climate of the late 1990s was changing and their robotic music style perfectly fits in these developments. The Californian act focuses on the 'man vs. Machine' subject by playing industrial rock at full energy. They're heading in a slightly darker direction and building further on the Fear Factory sound. This album is considered essential by many fans of the band and of the genre, and even years later it still retains it's originality and intensity. A must for any fan of Industrial music or of metal in general. Fear Factory is an influential band in the industrial metal music.

Anyway, the album "Obsolete" combines the extreme pounding metal elements with the melodic industrial singing and electronics. It is definitely an album worth picking up but it's not for people that don't like their heavy metal with intense and harsh vocals in the mix.
The bonus songs on here for me are a mixed bag: the Car's cover is brilliant, the other cover about the murderer is mediocre and stale (frankly, kind of stupid too), the track after that isn't bad but isn't anything great either, Messiah is a pretty solid track for only having a few verses, and Concreto has great musicality but the vocal style is grating for me to tolerate.
For those of you who've heard rumors about this band being anti-God or Satanist, that's completely wrong. While they are atheist, they still think that spirituality is a good thing. When they write lyrics involving religion, ("Pisschrist was a bit over the top) they are striking at organized religion for inciting fear and changing the entire nature of the teachings of God. If you understand this, this album and other Fear Factory albums might make a little more sense.
This a great buy for anyone who likes heavy metal or industrial music. The bonus tracks except for the Cars song i could give or take but the album itself is solid.
I especially recommend FF for those who are just breaking in to this genre of music - they will not scare you off like some....
I’m so ecstatic that this is finally available on vinyl as it truly is a masterpiece of a record. It is the original release, and my only knock is it didn’t include Cars. But, I guess there was a reason back in 98’ that it was left off as it is a concept album.
