Archetype is Fear Factory's fifth album. After there breakup after Digimortal, they redeemed themselves by going back to going heavy and leaned off the experimental/nu metal stuff a tad bit. It could be there best album, it's a toss up between Demanufacture. Raymond Herrera's drumming is absolutely amazing, it's fast and technical in a way it seems to blend well with the music which is good like I feel it's a turn off if the drummer is going at a faster speed than everyone else. This album doesn't feautre longtime Fear Factory guitarist Dino Cazeres, I know I'm not the only one that didn't miss the lyric "the infection has been removed, the soul of this machine has improved" from the titled track. Top through bottom it's brutal song after brutal song, good release. Songs to check out "Slave Labor", "Bite the Hand That Feeds", and "Cyberwaste".
