4.0 out of 5 stars Hatefiles Database, April 15, 2003

This review is from: Hatefiles (Audio CD)

The hardcore FF fan knows about FF. Now for those who are wondering what's on here? I'll explain and make you feel a little bit better on what your buying here.

Tracks 1-3 were recorded during the "Digimortal" sessions, these tracks have really good sound quality to it, Tracks 1-3 are unreleased.

Tracks 4-5 are Machine Debaser (a.k.a Hurt Conveyor) and Invisible Wounds (Alternate Version), nothing to exciting here.

Tracks 6-8 were recorded during the "Obsolete" sessions but these are tracks are just alternate takes, nothing new. These tracks are only alternate because they wanted it to be a little bit more radio friendly.

Tracks 9-10 are were recorded during the "Demanufacture" sessions, but again these tracks are just alternate takes with nothing too different from the original.

Track 11 is Cars (1998), but the difference on this one is that Gary Numan himself sings his own song with FF backing him on the music, the album version has Gary and Burton trading off on vocals.

Track 12 is Dark Bodies-Demo (a.k.a Invisible Wounds) on this one the title is different and the music sounds flat, there's nothing different except the title.

Track 13 is Replica (Live) this live version is a little slow, sounds like FF wasn't in the mood to play, the crowd is loud and awake, but FF isn't, the sound on this one is a little flat.

Tracks 14-18 are the left over remixes from the "Remanufacture" (the Demanufactue Industrial Dance/Techno/Electronica remixes), but these mixes are alright, great headphone music.

Overall this album is okay, the unreleased stuff is a plus, the packaging is nice and use the liner notes to help guide youself through the CD, but as you go down the bottom of the disc, it's stuff we already know. If you going to make a collection of FF, make you sure you include all the bonus tracks from all their digipacks and then some more unreleased tracks, not alternate version with a different bass tone.

5.0 out of 5 stars FF must have cd!, August 25, 2005

First of I would like to say BOA guy from Ohio is a dumbazz.

He says FF is techno band without relizing this was a remix cd, bunch of songs that been B-Sides, remixed or never released.

You wanna hear how Fear Factory really sounds I suggest buy Obsolete or Archetype. Next time please pay attention what you buy and not just pick a cd just by it's cover. DUMB-AZZ

4.0 out of 5 stars A strong release by FF, October 5, 2004

18 Tracks full of songs for everyone's taste. You have a large number of FF songs that have been remixed and 8 songs by Fear Factory that were previously not released. Some would say these 8 songs were B-grade and that's why they weren't released. I would venture that these songs are good on their own. Listen to the CD twice and you'll appreciate what I mean.

Machine Debaser, Replica and Transgenic are the standouts in this album. The remixed songs are good as well but I like the original songs better hence only 4 stars. Overall its a strong album release by the heroes from Fear Factory
