Ascension Of The Watchers, the band featuring Fear Factory vocalist Burton C. Bell has posted the following message online.

"My dear friends, it is with great sadness that I inform all of you that the Ascension Of The Watchers tour that was scheduled for November 27 - December 13 had to be cancelled due to the lack of ticket pre-sales.

"In these troubling economic times, the risk of the tour failing was too great for all parties involved. After much consideration, cancelling the tour for this season was the best course of action.

"To those who did buy advance tickets, thank you for your support! I assure you that this is only a temporary setback and The Watchers will reschedule more dates at a later time. I am hoping that time will be very soon."

What's Next?

I hope all this means that Burton will return to Fear Factory soon, if that makes sense.

f***in Burton. I have respect for fear factory and everyone else involved with them and archetype is still one of if not the greatest Industrial albums. And ascension sucks.

You mean Burton is not in the mood of recording with Fear Factory again?
