August 3, 2009, 15 years ago
RockMyMonkey.com's Mark Carras recently spoke with FEAR FACTORY vocalist Burton C. Bell as part of their weekly podcast. During the interview, Burton took the opportunity to explain his version of events that led to the split with former bandmates Raymond Herrera and Christian Olde Wolbers. An excerpt from the interview follows:
Burton: "I'd like to make an official statement. First of all I want to cut through a lot of the confusion about one issue. I have not made a public statement about it, not wanting to air dirty laundry, but I have been forced to correct certain misstatements by Raymond (drummer) and Christian (bassist/guitarist). The fact that I have not worked with Raymond and Christian for the past three years as Fear Factory is for this one reason. I did not want to be involved with their manager. Her name is Christy Priske and she happens to be Christian's wife. During the Transgression mixing session, her and Raymond started a love affair that lasted for a couple years. As manager of Fear Factory this was completely unacceptable to me."
