Mechanize Tour, also named Fear Campaign Tour or Industrial Discipline Tour, was a concert tour which was headlined by American industrial metal band Fear Factory, in support of their 7th studio album, Mechanize.
It was held from December 4, 2009, to December 20, 2010. It was supposed to begin in August 2009, but the dates planned in United Kingdom, Germany, Australia & New Zealand were cancelled. The reason for the cancellation was as a result of the need for more time to complete the then-new album. An earlier show in Spain was also cancelled due to legal complications.
The band was supported by Sylosis, After All, Dååth and High on Fire, among others.
