What makes us human? What makes us being called human? And who calls us human? Mainly we do call ourselves like that. It is us who categorize in animals and humans. It is us who say that we are “something better” – but are we really? Have we ever been human? Have we ever been modern? To say it with the words of Frech sociologist Bruno Latour: “We have never been modern”. And to say it with the words of Swedisch post-rock band E321: “We were never human”. This song is tonight’s “Sound Of The Night”.

They Call Us Human is the title of E321‘s new song, which also got a wonderful video. A video that shows a dark scenery. A song that is perfect to think about if we ever were human. And to think about who calls us so. The perfect topic to think about at night. And with this the perfect song to be named “Sound Of The Night”.

We were never human. We are what we are.
