Fan dies in a car accident after a Fear Factory show

A devastating car accident has claimed the life of a dedicated Fear Factory fan, who was heading home after attending the band‘s concert in Sydney, Australia. Fans and the metal community have begun expressing their deepest condolences online, mourning the loss of a fellow concertgoer taken far too soon.

The band posted this on their social media channels:

We were deeply saddened to hear about the tragic accident involving one of the fans who attended our Sydney show.

Our thoughts and condolences go out to their family, friends, and everyone affected by this loss.

We’re grateful to everyone who comes out to support Fear Factory around the world, and we simply want to remind everyone to travel safely and look out for one another on the road home.
