Fear Factory took the stage with some extremely exciting news to share, “Ladies and
gentlemen, straight from Milan, Italy, I would like to introduce Mr. Milo Silvestro,” Dino
Cazares said as the crowd roared. Silvestro officially joined the band exactly one
month before the Boston, MA, show. He was discovered by founding member and
guitarist Dino Cazares. After 3 years without a lead singer, Dino stumbled upon a video
online of Milo performing a cover of Fear Factory song, Soul of a New Machine.

As Fear Factory closed out their 10-song set with Replica and fans surfed the crowd

toward the stage, Silvestro jumped off stage to high-five fans in the front row and
shook their hands. Fear Factory performed like a well-oiled machine with Silvestro
fitting in seamlessly. “We are back!” Silvestro said into the microphone before exiting
the stage, “The new era of Fear Factory is here!”
