Fear Factory guitarist Dino Cazares has indirectly commented on the recent reveal of a new project by his former Fear Factory bandmate, Christian Olde Wolbers. It certainly seems as though Wolbers is out to create his own version of Fear Factory with that endeavor, detailing his efforts to recapture the gold-certified industrial groove metal band’s drum sounds, and even going so far as to name the band Angst Fabrik, which roughly translated from German is ‘Fear Factory’.
Speaking yesterday (March 09th) on social media, Cazares pointed out a tweet he made on Twitter back in October of 2020, which now ironically found him mentioning the aforementioned translation of his band’s moniker.

Cazares is the sole remaining original member of Fear Factory following a history of contentious legal battles which involved Wolbers, as well as the band’s former drummer Raymond Herrera and vocalist Burton C. Bell.
Angst Fabrik have been working on new material with Wolbers at the helm, while Fear Factory have been in the studio laying down their eleventh studio album — their first with vocalist Milo Silvestro.
