Dino Cazares makes it clear: no former members will rejoin Fear Factory

Dino Cazares, the founder guitarist of Fear Factory, has stated that he has “moved forward” and has ruled out collaborating with any of the band’s previous members, as per Blabbermouth. Dino posted this on his Facebook page on Saturday, February 28.

I don’t hold any hatred toward any former members, but to be clear, I will not be working with them again, I’m sure the feeling is mutual. What’s done is done, and that chapter is permanently closed. I’ve moved forward and remain focused on the present and the future.

I sincerely hope they have done the same.

Respectfully.

The only reason I continue addressing this is because fans keep asking. I’ve already moved on and have said that many times. Unfortunately, some people get upset if I don’t answer the question and others get upset when I give an honest answer they don’t want to hear.
