Review Excerpts
- ""Human" has an alright chorus, no part of it owes a debt to NJ's finest, and that's a recent press shot over there. The track's bulit around synths, a dance beat, and the '80s, although it's less the youthful, midnight glitz of Hot Fuss, more the glitter of a chill-out, late night afterparty". - StereogumStereogum: New Killers "Human" (September 23, 2008)
- "Prickly guitar arpeggios, four-on-the-floor house beats, and warm, comforting synths surround Brandon Flowers' voice on this bit of catchy prom-night melodrama. "Are we human? Or are we dancers?"" - PitchforkPitchfork: New Killers "Human" (September 22, 2008)
