I didn't think they played anything after Demanufacture... or before Demanufacture... I thought they only played songs from Demanufacture. Oh, and that song from the Mortal Kombat soundtrack.

Starts off kinda sketch but he found his legs throughout.
Better than any live version of this track I've heard from burton in any case.
Hope they play more of Archetype. It's easily one of their better albums.

He's said in the past he likes a couple of songs from Archetype and Transgression. IIRC he really likes Archetype and My Grave (and he's right, so fucking dumb to not have that on the album. But noooo they had to put I Will Follow or Supernova lmao).
Champagne?

His singing is a little pitchy in that performance of Archetype but since Burton set the bar so fucking low with his own terrible live performances, it makes this actually quite good. Hopefully he will only improve as time goes on. I do commend him for singing without a shit ton of backing tracks, I'll take that with a little imperfection over backing tracks any day.

I had never heard My Gave before. I have no idea what crack they were smoking not to have this as the lead single on Transgression. That album was weak, but the song is great.

The best song from Transgression, but not on the *actual* album and you had to do some convoluted shit to even get it.

Hope someone got fired for that blunder.

The punishment was working on Transgression in the first place The recording and production of that album was allegedly a shitshow.
Says a lot that the label they released the album under (Liquid 8/Calvin) folded the next year.

FEAR FACTORY - Calvin Records Plan Long Term Success With Transgression Album
Just two weeks after the release of Transgression, FEAR FACTORY and Calvin Records say that they are right on track for achieving long-term sales goals. First week results found the album ranked #3 on active rock’s “most added” list, 36 on iTunes’ download list, and 45th overall on the...

1) The fucking label was riding on the success of this album, holy shit
and 2)
"Transgression, which many critics are saying is the band’s best album to date"

I love this song. I also love that somehow through member change fuckery Fear Factory can cover a Fear Factory song.

Bro, let it go. "Not impressed then, not impressed now", but here we go stomping in a forum thread over and over again...
I'm really surprised they played this one as I've always viewed the lyrics as a big "Fuck you!" to Dino...referencing the "infection has been removed", "the soul of this machine has improved" , "malignancies on the system will handicap, slow up, and rust"
Maybe he's spinning it around to shit on Burton by playing it.
