A Nice Little Gift For All The Fear Factory Fans
The single is supported by a DVD featuring all of the videos shot (up until now) for Fear Factory's most recent album, "Archetype. "Bite The Hand That Bleeds," as presented here, is a unique CD-Single/DVD combo. " If you bought the album when it first came out, you most likely got the bonus DVD, which features the "Cyberwaste" video. Well, it appears again here, but personally, I never tire of it. It's a strictly performance video, but very effective, capturing the powerful nature of Fear Factory's music perfectly. Following it up are three alternate videos for the second single, "Archetype. " We can choose from either the version in rotation on Fuse/MTV2, a stricly performance version, or an anime version. The original version is high concept, much in the same vein as the "Resurrection" video from a few years back, while the performance version is similar to the "Cyberwaste" video. However, the anime version, as inspired by the film "Galerians: Rion" is for the remix version (also found on the 2003 "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" soundtrack) and comes off a bit cheesy. Frontman Burton C. Bell is pasted into the foreground of the animation and it just comes off as cheesy. "Bite The Hand That Bleeds" was released in conjunction with the thriller "Saw" and features clips from the movie, along with the band playing out a similar situation to the plot of the movie (again, this comes off a bit tacky). The CD part only features the title track. I have to wonder why there are no b-sides or a remix of some sort. But, nevertheless, it's a good package for any Fear Factory fan. It's very rare to see a FF video these days, and to have them on this DVD (even if some are a bit cheesy) is worth the price alone. .
