Obsolete is the third studio album by American industrial metal band Fear Factory, released in 1998 and produced by the band themselves, Greg Reely and Rhys Fulber, the latter of whom wrote, arranged and performed all of the album’s keyboard parts.

Musically, the album saw Fear Factory experiment with their sound and it was the band’s first fully fledged concept album. Obsolete revolves around a story penned by vocalist Burton C. Bell, “Conception 5”, set in the year 2076 where machines have taken over mankind.

Obsolete would break Fear Factory into the mainstream and remains their highest selling album.

Obsolete is available as a limited numbered edition of 3000 copies on crystal clear & black marble vinyl and contains a 4 page booklet.
