“Sure and no. I’ve at all times had the hearth. I don’t want anyone to carry me new vitality, nevertheless it does really feel good when you’ve gotten anyone who can match the vitality that you’ve got. As a result of for some time there, I simply felt that — and I’m talking off the cuff right here — that [original Fear Factory singer] Burton C. Bell was simply sort of phoning issues in; he was simply sort of going via the motions, and it simply felt like he didn’t wanna be there. And so it was sort of missing. The band was happening for a short time. And as quickly as Milo got here in, it was a breath of recent air to play with anyone who wished to be there. And that felt actually good. And, after all, all of the trolls are gonna come after me for saying that, however it’s what it’s. I imply, I lived via it. I used to be there.”

Relying on who you ask, Bell was both fired from or he give up Worry Manufacturing unit again in September 2020.

Who is aware of if Bell could have something to say about Cazares’ remark? The final time he was requested about Worry Manufacturing unit and Silvestro, the singer mentioned his his alternative “doesn’t have an effect on me in any respect.” It actually simply looks as if the dude simply needs to place out his personal solo work and showcase his artwork.
