Burton has also just released a new solo single, Savages
When he barks “No one is coming to save you now,” the finest hairs on the back of your neck will stand on end.
“The lyrics for ‘Savages’ were not realized until the day after the tumultuous, presidential election,” states Bell. “Upon learning that many Evangelical Christians turned a blind eye to the scarce, moral compass in a fallible candidate to elect as president was staggering. I decided that the working title was quite suitable to describe those evangelicals that willfully elected a compulsive liar, prolific adulterer, conman, convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and documented racist who’s only goal is to fleece everyone in his path to gain power. If this is the paragon of their divine providence, there is no god coming to save them now.”
Fresh off his induction into the prestigious Metal Hall of Fame, Burton continues to solidify his legacy as a trailblazer of industrial metal. Renowned for his groundbreaking role in Fear Factory, the extreme music pioneer, multimedia talent, and iconoclastic provocateur resurrects his legacy and forward-thinking destiny, remade in a career-spanning incarnation as a singular solo artist.
Bell’s discography includes multiple live and recorded collaborations with Black Sabbath icon Geezer Butler and Journey’s Deen Castronovo (as GZR); industrial maverick Al Jourgensenand Ministry; and guest vocal appearances with Pitchshifter, Conflict, Soil, Static-X, Soulfly,and Delain, among others. He’s the vocalist of Ascension Of The Watchers and City Of Fireand, of course, the co-creator of Fear Factory and the only musician to appear on every Fear Factory release from 1992 through 2024.
Burton C. Bell’s Australian shows promise to be an unmissable experience, featuring heavy, groovy, dark, and moody tracks, alongside rare live renditions of deep cuts from his vast discography
