Dino Cazares: The Riffmanufacturer

There is no doubt in our minds that Dino Cazares is one of the most versatile, original, and badass guitarists of our generation! Throughout his successful musical career Dino has proven that he is armed with an arsenal of riffs that crush you in the balls, and that each note he plays gets branded on your brain forever. This is why we decided to baptize Dino as "The Riffmanufacturer", while interviewing him at the "Black Carpet" of the Revolver Golden Gods Awards last week in Los Angeles.

Not only is Dino one of the founders of industrial Heavy Metal legends Fear Factory, the band that single handily developed the sound of Nu Metal by combining razor sharp vocals and riffs with tremendous melodies and harmonies. But he is also the founder of Death Metal Mexican-American bands Brujeria and Asesino. As if that wasn't enough, he founded Divine Heresy after leaving Fear Factory temporarily due to personal differences with singer Burton C Bell. No matter which band Dino is in, his style is always precise, dangerous, and full of cojones! The amazing work that Dino has done in Heavy Music as a guitarist, has influenced thousands of guitarists worldwide, including legends like Pantera's "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott (RIP).

While his career has hit some bumps on the road, the biggest one being when we had to leave Fear Factory. Dino today is going full force with all of his three bands: Fear Factory, Divine Heresy, and Asesino. The future is bright for Dino Cazares, and we predict a storm full of crushing riffs and amazing live performances within the next decade (at least).

Here is the EXCLUSIVE interview we did with Dino at the "Black Carpet" of the Revolver Golden Gods Awards last week in Los Angeles, in which we discuss his musical career and what the future holds for him! Put a helmet on and grip tightly to your sits, because "The Riffmanufacturer" speaks the truth!
