I was lucky enough to contribute synths, programming, and a remix to the upcoming Fear Factory album “The Industrialist”. It was an honor to work with Rhys, Dino, Burt, Greg, and everybody else who contributed to the record. Click the title of the post to read more about the album, or scroll down… I can assure you it’s fucking HEAVY.
On June 5, Fear Factory will release their eighth studio album (and second since guitarist Dino Cazares returned to the fold)calledThe Industrialist. And earlier today, the group revealed the album’s track listing and cover artwork.
Cazares and frontman Burton C. Bell were once again joined in the studio by producer Rhys Fulber, while the album was mixed by Greg Reely (Paradise Lost/Skinny Puppy/Machine Head). “Rhys has been our secret member. He is the one producer who has been able to understand what we have been trying to accomplish from the beginning and has opened our eyes to new things without sacrificing our original sound. His production and keyboard talents has made Fear Factory stand out amongst the many bands of our genre,” says Cazares.
Like with 2010’s Mechanize, Cazares took charge of bass on the album, rather than new bassist Matt DeVries. However, it’s still unclear whether The Industrialist marks drummer Gene Hoglan’s last contribution to Fear Factory, since he recently confirmed he would not be joining the group on the road.
While we may have to wait a little longer till we hear our first taste of new music from Fear Factory, you can check out the track listing to The Industrialist after the jump, while the cover artwork can be seen above.

A piece of short fiction I wrote over the holidays… Click the title to read. Thanks for taking the time to do so.
I’ve received a lot of inquiries lately as to who does the art and graphic design for Blush Response - so I figured I would make a post about it.
Our art is done by Mikey Buchanan ( http://mikeybuchanan.carbonmade.com/ ). He is an incredibly talented artist based out of NYC, and a great friend of mine. I first approached Mikey when I was looking to get the first Blush Response shirts made, and he immediately knew what to do. Within a day he created the incredibly sick designs you see on the shirts, with just a few vague points of input from my end.
For each design, I gave Mikey some basic guidelines and let him extrapolate on them any which way he pleased. There were no real rules. I wanted his own interpretation of what he thought Blush Response looked like, and he definitely delivered. Uniformity was key, as was creating visual icons and themes that could be applied to future designs to bring everything together. I wanted something resembling a propaganda poster without being too cheesy. I love the dystopian atmospheres in sci fi novels and films such as Neuromancer and Blade Runner, and I wanted to capture that essence within the official shirts for the band.


With the WAR digipak, we sought to continue the uniform design found in the shirts, and turn the Replicant Eye TV into the logo for the band. I wanted to expand on the dystopian propaganda idea while bringing in some new elements to the designs, and Mikey knew exactly where to take them.

You can check out more of Mikey’s work at his Official Website.
Thanks for reading,
Joey Blush
You will hear new music next month.
