Digimortal

The band officially broke up in March 2002 as frontman Burton C. Bell decided to quit after putting out this album but reformed later to put out their next album Archetype. The band never play any songs from this album live since the reformation. It is the last to feature guitarist Dino Cazares.

The concept is about how man and machine have merged into one. The surviving humans and the machines realize they have to depend on eachother if they are going to continue on. The title of the album is actually short for "Digital Mortality".

The sound on this album is said to be Fear Factory's most Industrial album of all time. It also features some experimentaion such as clean guitar tones and even a rap metal song.
