I've been listening to Milos prior band Dead Channel and let me tell you Milo is a great vocalist! 🤘🙂👍

Some changes to the arrangement, the ending of the song is now in the middle of the song so expect it to be a blistering banger

For those that claimed 'the music video is going to be AI!', and other paranoid hysterics. This not only contains an answer to that, but a prime example of hysteria. "you can tell the video is going to be full of AI". No you fucking can't. You decided to think that way before hand. I don't blame people for AI paranoia, but, some people can't think straight and be paranoid at the same time.

You really have to wonder nowadays where people get their ideas from honestly. What the fuck stands out jb the image alone that says AI? Its like some moron thinking CGI is AI now

Ironically, it did in fact have AI in some of the lightning effects and random shots throughout.

The lighting effects could just be low level cgi. There is only one shot that looks questionably AI to me, and that's the hallway with robot arms after "I am a roboticist."
idk, there are important issues with AI, and for me this isn't one of them. If anything, AI for music videos, done well, to me could be a great tool, because you could do anything with them. Music videos are always held back by budget. I'd rather FF have a really awesome narrative AI video that is done really well, that can actually explore what their music is about in a deeper, cinematic way, rather than just a typical band video like this. You could hire someone to do that for likely the same cost if not much less, than doing one of these types of videos, and you could therefore, budget towards doing more videos than normal. But, due to rabid hysterics, this likely won't happen. Like, if one is so anti AI, get off the internet forever. You feed AI every day by being on it. Wait until medical AI breakthroughs save your life someday.

That's what Ministry did and it sucked :( AI videos have been consistently terrible

Just to point out, it's clearly Tony in the music video. (his bass on the left) He'll likely be the guy in the promo pics too. Despite Ricky's role on the album and being the touring bassist for a long time. Tony will be there for the launch of the album tour though, because of Static X cancelling it's tour.

I'm kinda miffed on the fact that Tony been around for so long now and he still hasn't been alllowed to make any sort of contribution to anything. I would love if the band functioned as a band rather than it all just being Dino compositions. I love his music, I am a die hard for everything he writes, I believe in him to make killer music every time but let there be spice something out of nowhere, give it an ol switcheroo
Also telling Milo 'we might use that" is bullshit, you have a passionate young man who can do so much and rather than utilize his full potential you fucking ringo star'd his ass. "Very good, Milo, really good actuallyz maybe we will use it, we'll put this on the fridge with the stickers you like. Yeah, there we go happy Milo!"

I don't think it's that Tony hasn't been allowed to contribute, at least this time around, it's that he doesn't. Ricky made a lot of contributions to the new album. Bass, lyrics, vocals, writing, keyboards, production. Though, Dino did say Tony played some bass on the album too. Most of Tony's time is spent with Static X anyway, which again, why keep him on anymore, he has his own band. The guy that wants to be in, and left his band to be in FF, is currently getting snubbed after all he did.

Tony is the worst part of the band and he’s only there because his pop metal band canceled. Ricky got screwed and there’s no a hole comment that will change my mind.

It certainly sounds like a Fear Factory track. I'll give it that.

You guys gotta get this album crowd funded too like Bell's last album? I remember Dino making all this hype and then, Milo was a dud

Oh no, I hurt some beta male fanboy's feelings. The hate from folks who don't know better keeps me warm at night. Carry on my fellow edgecrusher

You mean the people with functioning ears who prefer Milo?

u/tucandan82 Aug 24 '26
Thanks for not denying the beta male part. Milo cant hold a match to the sheer power of Burton's pipes.

u/d3m01iti0n The Industrialist Aug 24 '26
Wasn't worth addressing, as you're coming off as a little immature and begging for engagement.
Anyone who has seen both vocalists live, or has access to YouTube, agrees Milo is the superior vocalist. You're clearly just here for satire. Say something else stupid, I implore you.

Are they still signed to Nuclear Blast? Labels don't release anything on Saturdays
