Human

I don't know why Chuck ended this amazing album under forty minutes, but damn this is one of my favorite CD's. From start to finish, there is nothing but solid riffs and good (cookie monster) vocals. For those who are new to Death, you may want to start on The Sound Of Perseverance, but for those who are wishing to dive straight into the frenzy known worldwide as "Human", be my guest.
What is good about this album? Everything.
Why? Chuck, Paul, Sean and Steve all create an atmosphere that makes this album tingle the inner soul of one's soul. Heres how, by songs:

Its clear, by just listening to the first minute of the first track- Flattening Of Emotions- That you are in for one hell of a ride. The double bass madness, and palm muting my Chuck Schuldiner is out of this world. Sean Reinert puts together some of the most solid beats together, while keeping everything within the limits. Replicating it is near impossible unless you have rock/jazz/funk and years of experience under your belt.
Continuing into Suicide Machine and Together As One, the solid production continues, leaving you with no breaks. Personally, these are done better live, but they are still awesome. I think the first three songs are the cornerstone of Death Metal, as they represent what it stands for: Aggressive, fast, dark vocals which separate us, from the general population.

Now, these following two tracks are LOVED or rejected. Secret face, the next track, tends to lose the people who are not into Death. They do not give the song enough time. The solo is amazing, and I guarantee if you like solos, you will have an eargasm here.
Following this, is Lack Of Comprehension. A great music video (which MTV played only two times in its entire life, because its a fag channel) accompanies this amazing song. I'm sure this song was designed for headbanging/mosh pitting, as Schuldiner and Masvidal pull off some serious 'riffage' here.

Now we get into the See Through Dreams. For most people, who like Death, they feel as if they've had enough. It can start to seem like the same thing at this point. For most though, the speed of Chucks fingers keeps the listener entertained. As this ends, it bleeds into the most infamous Death track ever: Cosmic Sea. This [obviously] 'Cynic' styled track is thanks to Masvidal/Reinert. Dealing with technologies fine insertion, and Chucks amazing 'power metal' like solo, one could feel this as an anthem. Fortunately and unfortunately, it turns into a solid double bass assault. This is bad because the nice Chuck Schuldiner solo ends, but good because now Masvidal can take the shining spot (For once).

The reason this album didn't get 100 is because of Vacant Planets. A solid track, but by now, this song does not do anything special. I will not object to not listening to it, but it feels worn out by now. I'm not saying the style of the album is worn out, because I've easily listened to this whole damn album four times in a row, just Vacant Planets lacks something that separates it from the rest. Nothing new is brought to the table.

Pro and Con time:

Pros:
Every track is decent, and filled with power chords and superb solos. The backing by Masvidal makes it sound "Alien" by the way he plays his guitar, as he tremolo picks 0's, then 6's, then 3's on the same string to give it a 'duuuuh-diiiiii-deeee" effect.

Cons:
Too short, and revolves a lot around Chuck. Paul cannot shine as much. Bass is sometimes inaudible.

Songs worth listening to:
