Former Fear Factory bassist Christian Olde Wolbers has unveiled his new musical project on Instagram.
He announced ‘Angst Fabrik’ as the working title for his new band. The name translates to ‘Fear Factory’ in German, appearing as a calculated choice.
The musician has started promoting the new project through social media channels. Updates about the band’s lineup and musical direction will follow soon.
This announcement marks a significant new chapter in Wolbers’ career.
Blabbermouth reports that Wolbers ended his six-year tenure with thrash metal band Vio-lence in February 2025.
His musical journey extends beyond this new venture. Loudwire notes his continued presence in the metal scene. He co-founded Powerflo in 2017.
The PRP confirms drummer Adam Jarvis as the only other current member of Angst Fabrik. The band plans to release their debut album in 2026.
Wolbers has shown his versatility across metal subgenres. His experience spans from industrial metal with Fear Factory to thrash metal with Vio-lence. Now he embarks on this new German-titled project.
