Fear Factory - Concrete

Fear Factory’s Concrete is a unique cornerstone in the band’s legacy — recorded in 1990 but not released until 2002, it captures the raw intensity and early vision that would define the industrial metal pioneers. This album represents both the first Fear Factory recordings and a retrospective of their formative sound, blending heavy, aggressive riffs with melodic choruses — a blueprint that would influence countless nu-metal and industrial acts that followed.

Featuring tracks that were later reworked for the debut Soul of a New Machine alongside previously unheard material, Concrete is a treasure trove for fans seeking the genesis of Fear Factory’s iconic formula. Accompanied by two sets of liner notes detailing its unusual history, this first-ever LP pressing has been meticulously remastered and pressed on gun metal grey vinyl, offering collectors and fans an essential piece of Fear Factory’s foundational sound.
