Aggression Continuum
''Aggression Continuum'' is the tenth studio album by American heavy metal band Fear Factory, released on June 18, 2021. It is the band's first studio album since ''Genexus'' (2015), marking the longest gap between two albums in their entire career. The reasons behind the six-year gap between ''Genexus'' and ''Aggression Continuum'' were due to creative and personal differences, and legal issues surrounding the band, all of which contributed to Fear Factory going on an extended hiatus and Burton C. Bell leaving the band in 2020 after more than three decades as their singer. Despite this, Bell's vocals are present on the album, as they were recorded in 2017. ''Aggression Continuum'' also saw Fear Factory's lineup intact for the first time since '' Transgression'' (2005), with Mike Heller on drums and founding member Dino Cazares contributing to both guitar and bass. The album received positive reviews. It was elected by ''Loudwire'' as the 33rd best rock/metal album of 2021. Th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Fear is an intensely unpleasant emotion in response to perceiving or recognizing a danger or threat. Fear causes physiological changes that may produce behavioral reactions such as mounting an aggressive response or fleeing the threat. Fear in human beings may occur in response to a certain stimulus occurring in the present, or in anticipation or expectation of a future threat perceived as a risk to oneself. The fear response arises from the perception of danger leading to confrontation with or escape from/avoiding the threat (also known as the fight-or-flight response), which in extreme cases of fear (horror and terror) can be a freeze response or paralysis. In humans and other animals, fear is modulated by the process of cognition and learning. Thus, fear is judged as rational or appropriate and irrational or inappropriate. An irrational fear is called a phobia. Fear is closely related to the emotion anxiety, which occurs as the result of threats that are perceived to be u ...
