Press Reviews Industrial Nation- "These New Englanders create a high-energy club sound...Civilized? is a welcome find for techno dance fans". New England Recording Review - "I bet these guys have the BBSs buzzing!...This particular collection played at high volumes in an underground, afterhours rave, with flashing lights and colorful people would melt your mind". Cyber-Psychos AOD - "The Faktory is a heavily cyber-punk influenced, computer-loving/human estranged, electronic music band...not only are the vocals intelligable, but there's a lyric sheet which is worth read and covers nothing (nearly) that other bands in this genre constanly ramble about".
