Fear Factory - Soul Of A New Machine (Deluxe 30th Anniversary Edition)

Soul Of A New Machine (Deluxe) [30th Anniversary Edition] - Debut studio album originally released 8/25/92. Guitarist Dino Cazareshas stated that this album is a concept album, concerning man's creation of a machine that could be either technological or governmental. The particular concept would later play a more prominent role in some of Fear Factory's later albums. The sound of the record is different from the later albums, as it was influenced by many different extreme sub-genres of metal, such as death metal, thrash metal and grindcore, hence making the band an "anomaly" among others since it did not fit into any genre category at that time. The Run Out Groove 30th anniversary edition expands the album to 3LPs and includes bonus remixes and a few unreleased tracks plus an exclusive poster. This is the first vinyl release of the album in North America.
