Human is a death metal band from Christchurch, New Zealand.
Human was formed on 8 March 1992 by brothers Paul and Scott Harrison, on drums and guitars, respectively, and vocalist / guitarist Nathan Ballard. Bassist Vaughn Richardson joined in May of that year.
Human entered Nga Matuaka Studios in May and recorded the three-track demo cassette Organ Splatters, which was distributed throughout the heavy metal underground / tape-trading networks of the time. The band appeared on a September 1992 edition of New Zealand's 60 Minutes programme on TV3 as part of a documentary on suicide and depression, and the connection to heavy metal music.
Human has toured and recorded several times since then and continues today.
