Fear Factory postpone U.S. tour
Unlucky if you were hoping to catch Fear Factory this week, because according to a recent posting via the band’s Facebook page, the previously announced U.S. tour dates have been “postponed.”
It is as yet unknown whether the postponement is due to Dino eating too much Christmas dinner, but don’t worry, because the band do wish you a happy new year…So that makes everything ok.
“The uglier version of Marilyn Manson who makes repetitive bubblegum pop music with SNES instrumentals brings in as much cash as the big boys? This world is going down the drain.”
For as second I thought you were talking about Trent Reznor, but then I remembered Trent doesn’t bring in anywhere near as much as those guys.
Three interviews to get you going
Dino Cazares of Fear Factory and Divine Heresy is appropriately named ‘Dino,’ if you ask us. We just hope that photo doesn’t cause our server to crash. Anyway, someone interviewed him, so watch that after the jump…
Oderus Urungus of Gwar also got interviewed.I didn’t look at his stupid mask/costume though, I looked at the lady with the big tits. Not sure if she should be dressed as an angel, even if we suspend our disbelief to assume religion isn’t a lie, there’s still a thing called gravity and I doubt those small wings can carry such a husky ‘messenger of God.’ Anyway, also watch after the jump.
Accept guitarist Wolf Hoffmann (damn, Dino… Wolf… Is everyone fucking named after an animal?) also got interviewed, but only in audio form, so it’s less fancy. Don’t bother making the jump for this, just go here and listen to it.
Gene Hoglan speaks
It comes to us as a shocking revelation that Gene Hoglan, one of best heavy (metal) drummers out there, can not only speak (we thought the evolution upgraded his arms and legs and didn’t bother with the rest), but he also found the time to do so. We can’t figure out how he pulled the latter of, because he seems to be playing with some band at any given moment of his life.
In his message posted on MySpace, he speaks on various things, his ongoing touring cycle with Fear Factory, hanging out with Metallica, meeting James Hetfield, and of course… food. Read it here.
He also made the cover of Modern Drummer magazine, which you can see after the jump.
