[Intro]
"Due to the graphic nature of this program
Listener discretion is advised..."

[Verse 1]
Conceived in a hell
Beyond your depth of perception
Chaotic case of conquering domination
Psychopath snaps
Fired chains of imprisonment
A bludgeoning force
That's undermining the government

[Pre-Chorus]
Inflict strain upon the structure
Collapsing below my pressure
Inflict strain upon the structure
Collapsing below my pressure

[Chorus]
Break of the Edgecrusher, Break of the Edgecrusher
Break of the Edgecrusher, Break of the Edgecrusher
Break of the Edgecrusher, Break of the Edgecrusher

[Verse 2]
The purist, non-conformist
Jaded subhuman terrorist
From flesh to steel and
Blood to blade, I fight to exist
A rival of justice
Extreme rush of hatred
Survival in a twisted world
Where nothing is sacred

[Pre-Chorus]
Inflict strain upon the structure
Collapsing below my pressure
Inflict strain upon the structure
Collapsing below my pressure

[Chorus]
Break of the Edgecrusher, Break of the Edgecrusher
Break of the Edgecrusher, Break of the Edgecrusher
Break of the Edgecrusher, Break of the Edgecrusher

[Pre-Chorus]
Inflict strain upon the structure
Collapsing below my pressure
Inflict strain upon the structure
Collapsing below my pressure

[Chorus]
Break of the Edgecrusher, Break of the Edgecrusher
Break of the Edgecrusher, Break of the Edgecrusher
Break of the Edgecrusher, Break of the Edgecrusher

[Outro]
Break of the Edgecrusher, Break of the Edgecrusher

Fear Factory

Fear Factory is an American heavy metal band that was formed in 1989. During the band’s career, they have released nine full-length albums and have evolved through a succession of styles, including nu metal, death metal, groove metal, and thrash metal. Fear Factory was enormously influential on the heavy metal scene in the mid-to-late 1990s. Fear Factory went on hold in March 2002 following some internal disputes, but reformed later that year without founding member Dino Cazares, adding bassist Byron Stroud, and previous bassist Christian Olde Wolbers as guitarist.

In April 2009, a new lineup was announced. Cazares returned as lead and rhythm guitarist, and Gene Hoglan as drummer. Bell and Stroud reprised their respective roles, and the band completed a seventh studio album titled Mechanize. Former members Christian Olde Wolbers and Raymond Herrera —both of whom were playing in Arkaea—disputed the legitimacy of the new lineup, and a legal battle from both parties was begun. Fear Factory released its eighth studio album, The Industrialist, in June 2012. Their latest album, Genexus, was released in August 2015.

Over the years, Fear Factory has seen changes in its members, with lead vocalist Burton C. Bell being the only consistent member since 1989. The band has performed at three Ozzfests and the inaugural Gigantour. Their singles have charted on the US Mainstream Rock Top 40 and albums on the Billboard Top 40, 100, and 200, and they have sold more than a million albums in the U.S. alone.
