Limited 180gm audiophile vinyl LP pressing including four page booklet.

On their second album, 1995 s Demanufacture, Fear Factory evolved from an industrial-tinged death-metal band into something much more ambitious and nuanced. For their follow-up, 1998 s Obsolete (spelled oBSΩLE+e on the cover), Fear Factory took things next level, ramping up both the electronic elements of their sound and the conceptual nature of their lyrics, delivering a full-fledged cinematic plot line. Ranging from merciless bangers like “Shock” and “Edgecrusher” to the melodic, melancholic “Descent,” Obsolete broke Fear Factory big and remains their highest selling album.
