We Are Human - We Are Human

1. New Scars, Old Habits

2. Existence

3. Strive

4. Apotheosis

We Are Human is the evolution of their previous band Misguided Aggression. This album shows the band in that heavy, dirty, grimy metal style that you see being played in the smaller, not as nice bars. They have more of a late 2000's style here, so we would suggest that if you like bands like Unearth, know Misguided Aggression or a Threat Signal, then you may like this album. They have done an alright job here. When looking at the recording quality on this album, the album has been recorded to a standard level. The recordings do sound a little dirty and grimy, but we are pretty sure that's what the band wanted. all in all, it is listenable and its a clear recording, so not bad. The instrumentation however is also pretty standard. These guys can certainly play, but it wont turn your head in terms of musicianship. This is just a regularly played album. Now onto the vocals and lyrics, the vocals on this album are a little bit low in the mix, and sounds a little rough. He certainly can sing though, and you can hear the words clear enough. They are more growly vocals, but we can make them out good enough. With the lyrics, the band goes for songs about doing the same thing over and expecting new results, making mistakes and more. This seems to be a repetitive theme in the songs, and they are something others can relate to. The lyrics are a little hard to get the meaning from, but thats what makes you delve into the song more. Not bad. If you are looking for a single to this album, give the song "New Scars, Old Habits" your attention as it best represents the album as a whole. We Are Human have made an album that follows what they were doing previously as musicians, and it would be too hard for someone to come over and like this as well. We would like to see a bigger sample of what the band can do, but for now, this isn't bad and we can't wait to see whats next. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it.
