These post-Judgment Day industrial metal warriors enlisted Frontline Assembly’s Rhys Fulber in their war against the machines, and he proved a formidable ally. Almost everyone contributes to the fight, though – Dino Cazares designed the battle strategy and brought the heavy artillery, Raymond Herrera lays down precision fire with his kit, and Burton C. Bell’s versatile voice switched between guerrilla warfare on the ground and soaring airstrikes (new bassist Christian Olde Wolbers’s contribution amount remains controversial). “Replica” and the title track make for fierce weapons in their arsenal, but the towering glory of “Zero Signal” delivers their most devastating strike against Skynet.
