Dino Cazares recently made it clear that he isn’t interested in participating in the ongoing drama between Burton C. Bell and Christian Olde Wolbers.
In a recent post about his appearance at the NAMM Show on X, a fan replied with a screenshot of Wolbers’ latest Instagram post with Burton C. Bell. The fan captioned the image, “Talking about NAMM, I saw something unbelievable today.”
However, Cazares wasn’t concerned by the comment. He responded, “I wish them continued success. As you can see, I’ve moved forward and I’m focused on the future growth of Fear Factory.”
Earlier, the rocker had explained that after rejoining Fear Factory in 2009, the band had to deal with complications from past legal disputes. According to him, Wolbers and drummer Raymond Herrera had filed lawsuits against Cazares and Bell over unpaid money.
In a previous interview, Cazares addressed a common misconception about the lawsuits. “One of the biggest misconceptions is that people thought that I sued Burton, but that’s not true. It was Raymond and Christian who sued us individually. We had separate lawsuits. They sued us separately so they can get separate money,” he said. “So if they would have won my lawsuit, I would have had to give them a million dollars.”
Cazares continued, “I won my lawsuit against them. I didn’t owe them anything. But, actually, Burton filed for bankruptcy, and when he filed for bankruptcy, he tried to get out of paying those guys. And, unfortunately, he lied in his bankruptcy. That’s a federal offense. Raymond and Christian took him back to court, made him open up the bankruptcy. The bankruptcy was null and void. So Burton had to pay back those guys, and they took all of Burt’s assets.”
Earlier, Wolbers had reacted to an article from Loudwire titled ‘Dino Cazares Breaks Down Exactly Why Fear Factory Reunion Won’t Happen.’ He posted laughing emojis and commented ‘bullsh*t’ in response.
