Machines were going to take over long before the headlines caught up, and Fear Factory has been scoring that dread since 1989 — industrial metal built like an assembly line, riffs that chug like pistons, clean-sung choruses fighting through a wall of mechanized rage. Their whole catalog is a warning about man versus machine, and three decades on it lands harder than ever, which is its own bleak joke. This is a night for the metal faithful who like their heaviness with a concept and a spine, with modern metalcore crew Darkest Hour and openers Brotality bringing the newer blood. The Glass House in Pomona gets loud enough to rattle fillings. Friday, November 27, 2026, doors 7pm, all ages. Come let a wall of industrial precision pummel the holiday stress out of you, with a crowd that has been showing up for this sound since before half the room was born. Wear the black shirt you save for the heavy ones; tonight earns it.
