Due to reasons well beyond the band?s control, FEAR FACTORY will not be taking part in this Summer?s Shockwave Festival Tour, slated to commence July 6, 2012 in Seattle.  The announcement follows the Shockwave’s announcement that due to VOIVOD‘s recent cancellation and poor advance ticket sales, the tour has been cancelled.

Commented the band in a collective statement: ?We are truly disappointed not to be part of the Shockwave tour. We send our sincerest apologies to all our North American fans planning to come out this Summer, but we will be back. Please look for FEAR FACTORY headlining dates in August.?
