Not bad, not bad at all.

No more Dino, and as the title track says "The Infection Has Been Removed, The Soul of The Machine has improved"

Byron Stroud has stepped in well as bassist and from the sounds of it, Christian is a more interesting guitarist than Dino was (albiet with the same style of simplistic catchy riffing)

Definately better than the last few attempts.

Still think its funny that Lew and Silus ran into Burton on the ferry. - Fri, 9 Apr 2004 9:24am

I love Obsolete, but listened to Digimortal about once and a half before shelving it.....

I can't imagine Fear Factory without Burton, but I might check this out..... I haven't seriously listened to metal for years, but I still love Fear Factory.... - Fri, 9 Apr 2004 10:39am

Yup. Told me something interesting, says every sample on Demanufacture are clips from Terminator 2 *I diddn't notice before he said that anyhow..*

And he agreed the best thing about recording in BC is the weed\m/ haha

*Archetype was recorded in Richmond for those who diddn't know* - Fri, 9 Apr 2004 2:22pm

Burton did leave to get away from Dino, then Dino was booted and Burton came back,,, or something.. So Christian plays guitar, and Byron of SYL plays Bass.. - Sun, 11 Apr 2004 9:04am

Digimortal had a few good tracks, but Archetype sounds more like old FF kinda Demanfacture/Obsolete-ish, with a nice touch Of Soul Of A New Machine. - Sun, 18 Apr 2004 1:39pm

hate to admit it but there are some good moments on this. but it just seems so fucking done. I'm way to lazy to write reviews for these but if you want some good metal get the new Vehemence (Helping The World To See) and the new Capharnaum (Fractured). great Death Metal. - Wed, 21 Apr 2004 7:16pm

Holy fuck the new Capharnaum is the shit. That drummer is sumpin' else. And after months of hearing Jason going on and on about Gorgasm's "Masticate to Dominate" I finally got it. Wow. The riff in "Stitched Oral Asphyxia" from 1:03-1:21 is one of the best riffs ever. Oh yeah, and as far as Fear Factory goes, what's the word I'm looking for, uhhhhmm....meh. Yup, that's the one. - Thu, 29 Apr 2004 8:27am

ahahah it's tr00. It's funny though, I never thought much of grind before moving here. Now I fucking love it. As far as Fear Factory goes though, I've only heard one tune off the new album, and I don't think I even listened to the whole thing. Like I said, I saw them a whole bunch (opening for Slayer, White Zombie, probably others cant remember) and I never could get into them. Have you heard the new Capharnaum? Man o man, 'tis the shit. - Thu, 29 Apr 2004 9:17am
