Demanufacture, Fear Factory's second album, came roaring off the Roadrunner assembly line on June 13, 1995, with Colin Richardson producing. It's the first record by the lineup fans call classic: Burton C. Bell on vocals, Dino Cazares on guitar, founding drummer Raymond Herrera, and new bassist Christian Olde Wolbers, who played on close to half the tracks while Cazares covered bass on the rest.
This is industrial metal as a machine with a pulse, the drums hammering in lockstep with clipped, riveted riffs and Bell's voice cutting through the grind. "Self Bias Resistor" still rattles the fillings. Plenty of listeners rank it as the band's best and a metal classic, and along with Obsolete it put Fear Factory among the most praised heavy bands of the mid-to-late '90s. It went gold in Australia and silver in the UK.
