Fear Factory Replace Matt DeVries With Static-X's Tony Campos
. DeVries explained his decision in the following message to fans, "For those that haven't already heard, I've decided to step down as bass player of Fear Factory. The main reason being to simply take some time off of the road and focus on my kids. I couldn't think of anyone better to take my place then Tony Campos. He's a good friend and great bass player! "Thank you to all Fear Factory fans. You guys have been amazing and made the past three years a blast! Thank you as well to Dino, Burt, and Mike for a great ride, and some memorable / incredible shows! None of which could have happened without our amazing road crew, Wedge, Jerry, Justin, Sarah� you guys rule! Music is my passion, so this won't be the last time you see me." Campos left his spot in Soulfly to join Fear Factory. Here is what he had to say, "Big announcement time. Now that I'm back out on the road with Ministry, I can go ahead and tell you all what's going on without confusing everyone (hopefully). After I'm done with this Ministry run, I will begin playing bass for Fear Factory. "This is the gig I wanted when Static-X was falling apart, and I'm really excited that I finally get to do it. My first show with them will be at Amnesia Rock Fest on June 20th, the day after I play with Ministry at Amnesia Rock Fest. "I would like to take this opportunity to thank Max and Gloria Cavalera, and the whole Soulfly tribe for the incredible opportunity they gave me. It was a great three+ years, and I enjoyed every minute of it. You have my eternal gratitude, love, and respect, and I hope we can work together again in the future."
