UNSEEN TERROR
Human Error (Earache)
Reviewed by Jason

Lo-fi mince-core as brought to you by drummer
Shane Embury (bassist in Napalm Death) and
guitarist/bassist/vocalist Mitch Dickinson
(Heresy). Their sense of humor has made a few
overlook some of the band’s more
thought-provoking terminology, particularly on
"Divisions," my favorite. Soon after their session
on John Peel’s radio show, this album was reissued on a
retrospective anthology commemoration of Radio
One session recordings, along with Jimi Hendrix,
The Police, Jethro Tull, The Pogues, Elton John,
Thin Lizzy, Queen, and The Smiths. Cheers to
whomever was smart enough to include a group so
contented outside of the customary scaffold of
pop. With that, Unseen Terror have secured their
place in history. Hopefully this rumor of an
eventual reunion will prompt a sequel to Human
Error.
