"People want to hear something more than just commercially oriented music."

Vocalist Burton C. Bell tunes in to Tangra Mega Rock right from the current Fear Factory tour.

Vassil Varbanov: Hello Burton, how are you doing?

Burton C. Bell: I'm fine, thanks.

V. V.: What can we say about the Factory in 2006? Is there anything new?

B. C. B.: Everybody is expecting to hear some new music on this tour. We'll be playing songs from every record we've put out, but there's no music written this year yet.

V. V.: By the way, do you still keep in touch with your former guitarist Dino Cazares?

B. C. B.: No.

V. V.: I got it. Do you think that 2006 is going to be good for the good bands that are constantly searching for new ways of expression, like Ministry and Revolting Cocks?

B. C. B.: I think it's that type of cycle that's happening. Music has been so focused lately on commercial type of stuff, and I'm not a big fan of it, so it's time for this music like Ministry or Revolting Cocks to make their cycle back. I also know that the original line-up of Front Line Assembly is going to be touring with KMFDM and Bellamorte this year, so that's gonna be a really good tour as well. Fields of the Nephilim are also touring again, so it's definitely that cycle right now. People want to hear something more than just commercially oriented music.
