Human (album)
Encyclopedia : H : HU : HUM : Human (album)
Human is the fourth album released by Death in 1991.
Human marked the beginning of what would become major stylistical changes for Death. The actual sound of the album is much more technically accomplished and progressive than Death's previous strictly brutal efforts. The lyrics are now more introspective and meaningful as opposed to the gore based lyrics of the bands first few albums. This new style would be more and more prevalent on all following Death albums.
This album also broke the band into the mainstream rock scene with the single "Lack of Comprehension", which had a music video that received some airplay on MTV.
Bass player Steve DiGiorgio left after the recording of this album (though he would later return to record Individual Though Patterns). He was replaced by Skott Carino, who toured with the band in 1991-1992. Skott also recorded bass on Cosmic Sea.
