This Pennsylvania-based band hit it big with their debut album on the strength of the hard-hitting but catchy "Shimmer." The all-important follow-up album finds the group wisely playing to its strengths. From the start, Fuel has had the capability to combine driving riffs and grinding rhythms with catchy hooks and ingratiating melodies. That gift serves the boys from PA well on SOMETHING LIKE HUMAN, which pretty much picks up where SUNBURN left off. Brett Scallions may go down in heavy-rock history as having one of the most effective vocal sneers, which leds a rock-star grandness to virtually everything he sings. The band's patented pulsing riffs and grooves are present and accounted for on such cuts as "Hemorrhage (In My Hands)" which wreaks heavy-duty havoc on Elton John's famed "love lies bleeding" refrain. Meanwhile, there are enough relatively breezy, open-hearted moments, full of ringing guitar strum and legato melody, to balance the hard stuff nicely.
