Reviews list for Unhuman - Unhuman (2013)

Unhuman's self-titled album was one of the most creative and formidable slabs of technical death metal to be released in years in 2013.

I wasn't expecting much when a forum friend recommended it to me, but this album's musicianship, songwriting, and variety completely blew me away. The imagination of progressive metal has been perfectly fused with the precision of technical death metal to create songs that are very heavy, yes, but also all very memorable and dynamic with lots of delicious little melodies mixed in throughout as well. And of course, this review wouldn't be complete without mentioning the vocalist. I don't usually pay much attention to the vocals in death metal, but this vocalist can do some insane things with his voice and it really adds to the allure of their sound. I look forward to hearing more from this promising band in the future.

Highlights: Chaotic Equilibrium, Douces Pensées..., Mutants War, Sécheresse, Once Again, (In)human Being, Individual Timeless Reality
