Silvestro’s addition to the band was officially confirmed in February 2023, and he, along with Webber, has been part of the touring lineup for more than three years. The group’s first headlining show with the new members took place on May 5, 2023, at the Whisky A Go Go in West Hollywood, California. Long-time bassist Tony Campos, who also fronts STATIC-X when not touring with Fear Factory, continues to contribute, while guitarist Dino Cazares emphasizes his practice of selecting musicians who fit the band’s needs.

Cazares describes the upcoming material as “heavy” and “modern,” featuring extensive programming, “cool little surprises,” and a blend of aggressive riffs with melodic clean-vocal choruses. He notes that the songs will vary in tempo and groove, delivering “epic outros” and “epic closing songs.” The band will support the new release with the “Cybernetic Domination” U.S. tour in November 2026, opening after a co-headlining run with Mushroomhead and featuring support from Darkest Hour and Brotality.
