Former Fear Factory frontman Burton C. Bell will be discussing the band’s 1998 album “Obsolete” during some spoken word events this fall. The shows will be phone-free and each one is limited to 50 people.
Here’s the dates:
October 6 — San Diego, California
Scorpion Percussion
Guest arrival: 7:00 pm
Spoken word presentation: 8:00–9:00 pmOctober 7 — Los Angeles, California
The Crooked Path
Guest arrival: 7:00 pm
Spoken word presentation: 8:00–9:00 pmOctober 9 — Las Vegas, Nevada
The Space
Guest arrival: 7:00 pm
Spoken word presentation: 8:00–9:00 pmThe following was said about the events:
“Guests will be asked to silence and put away their cell phones during the presentation. No filming or recording will be permitted.
There will be no screen between the audience and the experience, and no social media feed capable of recreating what happened in the room. The only way the experience travels beyond those 50 people is the way stories once traveled — from one person to another, by word of mouth.
Thirty years after Obsolete, Burton C. Bell is opening the story again in an entirely different way.
Three cities. Fifty guests per room. One voice. One shared experience.
No filming. No recording. No scrolling.
Just the story of Obsolete, told by the man who lived it – and carried forward by the people who were there.”

“It has been a real pleasure to spend time revisiting my solo back catalogue over the past couple of years alongside Brendan Duffey, remixing it all for Dolby Atmos and really bringing the sonic side of the album completely up to date. ‘Accident Of Birth’ was a really important album for me at the time and I think contains some of my very best work. It lit a fire under me once more, especially as a songwriter, and was a great chance to work with Adrian again. I’m so proud of this record, and these new mixes sound fantastic. Turn it up loud and enjoy!”

05. “No One Left To Tell”
06. “Waltz for the End”Guitarist Philip Jamison commented:
“Our sixth full length album isn’t particularly uncharted sonic territory for the band but rather a process of self-discovery and coming to terms with the decisions we’ve made and the people we are. Caspian revives musical pledges established over 22 years ago, forgotten somewhere along the way but rediscovered here, hopefully, in the form of structural simplicity, approachable melodic sensibilities and being ruthlessly direct as possible with our own emotions. In a culture that shows no signs of slowing down, we find these core tenants more important than ever and it’s our hope that they’re put to the best use we are collectively capable of. We did this record for the 5 of us.”

Firewind Premiere New Song “The Legend Of Achilles”
Firewind have premiered a new song titled “The Legend Of Achilles.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Gods, Myths & Titans,” which will be released on February 19.
Guitarist Gus G. commented:
“We’ve wanted to make a concept album about Greek mythology for a long time, and finally we got around to it. It’s been two years in the making, and our goal was to create the most epic album in the history of the band. Adding cinematic and orchestral elements to our classic metal sound gave a whole new layer, enhancing the style of Firewind.
Each track is a gate to a different myth. We went all in with the visual side as well and worked with Felipe Machado who created unique artworks for every song. These are tales of power, glory, tragedy, and defiance.
Today we give you the first single and it’s about Achilles — one of the mightiest warrior legends to ever walk the earth. Turn up the volume and enter the realm of ‘Gods, Myths, & Titans.’”
“Gods, Myths & Titans” Track Listing:
01. “Prologue Sacrifice”
02. “Firegod”
03. “I Will Sail On”
04. “The Legend Of Achilles”
05. “Cries Of A Mortal”
06. “Queen Of The Underworld”
07. “Prelude The Chosen One”
08. “Under Aegean Skies”
09. “A King Dethroned”
10. “Unbreakable”
11. “Titans Fall”
12. “Epilogue”
