burton's vocals are obviously treated alot in the studio with pitch correction and harmonies. but, I think burton does a pretty good job replicating that live. obviously its not going to sound as good, but screaming and singing some very ambitious melodic parts is incredibly hard to do. there are some excellent live performances on youtube, check out the gigantour stuff, the wocester gig, the big day out stuff and anything from 1998/1999, fear factory were at their absolute best then.

i also heard that after his days of Concrete Burton fucked his voice over pretty good, ive never heard anything good about the singing in live performances. but that doesnt mean they dont fucking kick ass in each of their cd's.

So burton's vocals are synthesized on the cd's, why don't they do it live? He's trying to make up for it on stage and obviously doesn't sound as good.

Bell has a stage performance that kinda reminds of me of Corey Taylor w/out the jumping around

yeah but it'd be real hard to go from heavy to singing, specially when your out of breath-and the sudden change would be very difficult to master. i really thought when i first listened to fear factory albums that theres no way he could reproduce that voice but he does an awesome job. fear factory are so highly underrated even if they do fall under nu metal or industrial metal or whatever its called. i think if you can enjoy a band than they're good fuck all this labelling shit.

I think that Burton sounds better live xP when he's doing the dry lung vocals
