The Life I Remember
# The Life I Remember

The Life I Remember is the debut studio album by American heavy metal band Once Human. It was released on September 4, 2015, through earMUSIC.

## Background

In 2014, after taking more than ten years off from performing live music, music producer and former Soulfly/Machine Head guitarist Logan Mader founded the band now known as Once Human.

On May 26, 2015, the ensemble published a lyric video of "The Life I Remember", the title track for the album. An equivalent video of "Terminal" was unleashed on July 10, 2015. Four weeks later, the group released "You Cunt", the first video from the ensemble portraying them playing alongside a theatrical plot.

## Touring

The band toured Europe in November and December 2015 with American industrial metal band Fear Factory.

## Critical reception

ArtistDirect indicated that title track "The Life I Remember" is "full of the crunch and grit that metal fans have come to love and expect from [Mader], who pounded out riffs in some essential, '90s-era metal bands".

Blabbermouth.net portrays Hart's singing as a "throat-scarring level of vocal brutality that completely contradicts her soft appearance".

According to Jeremy Borjon of Revolver magazine the band demonstrates "an impeccably produced, ruthless and mature sound in the vein of Arch Enemy and DevilDriver" with Hart bringing "the metal with clear and compelling screaming fleshed out by a groovy and thunderous rhythm section".
