Human was originally formed on 8 March 1992 by brothers Paul and Scott Harrison (on drums and guitars respectively), and
vocalist / guitarist Nathan Ballard. The
bassist Vaughn Richardson joined them in May of that year.
Human entered Nga Matuaka Studios in May and recorded a 3 track demo cassette titled "Organ Splatters" which was distributed freely throughout the heavy metal underground / tape swapping networks around at the time. The band later appeared on a September 1992 addition of New Zealand's
60 Minutes programme on
TV3 as part of a
documentary that focused on
suicide and
depression, and the connection to
heavy metal music.
Human has toured and recorded several times since then and continues today.[1][full citation needed]
