== History ==
nolongerhuman is the sole project of Clint Robertson. Starting in 2000 with a project called Varix, which focused on heavy electronics and noise-infused beats, nolongerhuman was officially formed in 2004 after being included in several compilations and releasing several demo recordings. 2006 saw the first compilation release, a track titled ''Transcend Humanity'' on
▲Starting in 2000 with a project called Varix, which focused on heavy electronics and noise-infused beats, nolongerhuman was officially formed in 2004 after being included in several compilations and releasing several demo recordings. 2006 saw the first compilation release, a track titled Transcend Humanity on [[BLC Records]] Interbreeding IX: Kuru.<ref>{{cite web |title=Various – Interbreeding IX: Kuru |url=https://www.discogs.com/Various-Interbreeding-IX-Kuru/release/887262 |website=Discogs |accessdate=14 August 2018}}</ref>
In 2007, nolongerhuman continued to work on new music and
In 2009, nolongerhuman signed with [[COP International]] and released the first full album, ''Antipathy''.<ref>{{cite web |title=nolongerhuman Albums and Discography |url=https://www.allmusic.com/artist/nolongerhuman-mn0002144967/discography |website=AllMusic |access-date=1 February 2022 |language=en}}</ref> Drawing from varied influences, the music is a response to the inhumanity of everyday life. Focusing heavily on found samples, movie clips, and rich backgrounds, nolongerhuman explores the depth of media debris to create their own version of truth. Driven by the belief that any creative pursuit is merely a reflection of the creator, nolongerhuman assaults the senses with a skillfully orchestrated roller-coaster ride of hard pounding beats, harsh vocals, and beautiful, classically inspired synth lines. The tracks range from relentless club smashers to more haunting dark ambient pieces with a lot of soul. Touring for ''Antipathy'' began in late 2009 and continued through 2010, supporting acts such as [[Nachtmahr]] and [[Funker Vogt]]. During this time, nolongerhuman gained much attention and praise in the electro/industrial scene with the debut album positively received throughout the harsh electro community as a strong entrance into the genre
In 2012, nolongerhuman released the second full-length album, ''Depersonalization'',<ref>{{cite web |title=nolongerhuman Albums and Discography |url=https://www.allmusic.com/artist/nolongerhuman-mn0002144967/discography |website=AllMusic |access-date=1 February 2022 |language=en}}</ref> which expands upon ''Antipathy''. "Focusing on emotion first and foremost, the songs range from melancholic to furious, discussing topics such as loss, abandonment, and the lies told to us every day."<ref>{{cite web |title=nolongerhuman launches 2nd album : Depersonalization {{!}} Brutal Resonance |url=https://www.brutalresonance.com/news/nolongerhuman-launches-2nd-album-depersonalization/ |website=www.brutalresonance.com |publisher=Brutal Resonance |access-date=30 January 2022 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last1=Isacker |first1=B.

''Depersonalization'' was noted for, "...setting the template for how Dark Electro should sound... far removed from the violent, gory, sexual ethic, instead replacing it with more relevant tunes about everything from politics to loss and unemployment, Clint shows us that with a little hint of ingenuity, the wheel can be re-invented."<ref>{{cite web |last1=Quarm |first1=Nick |title=Review: nolongerhuman - Depersonalization {{!}} Brutal Resonance |url=https://www.brutalresonance.com/review/nolongerhuman-depersonalization/ |website=www.brutalresonance.com |publisher=Brutal Resonance |access-date=30 January 2022 |language=en}}</ref>, as well as, "...an album with something to say, and it is one that says it pretty well too."<ref>{{cite web |last1=Yardley |first1=Miranda |title=Review: Nolongerhuman - 'Depersonalisation' |url=http://www.terrorizer.com/dominion/reviews-5/review-nolongerhuman-depersonalisation/ |website=Terrorizer |access-date=30 January 2022 |date=14 March 2012}}</ref> The second album from nolongerhuman entered the Top 10 Albums on the German Electronic Charts (GEWC) at #5 during the week of April 15, 2012.

Heavy use of vocal samples put ''Withdrawal'' in a historical context, harking back to early '90s industrial. Released with similarly high reviews to the prior albums, ''Withdrawal'' showcased how nolongerhuman manages to overcome a lot of cliches from the dark electro genre and has been gaining, "...a bigger and more loyal fanbase with his uncompromising melodies and deep, personal lyrics that are splattered onto the masses."<ref>{{cite web |last1=Gullotta |first1=Steven |title=Review: nolongerhuman - Withdrawal {{!}} Brutal Resonance |url=https://www.brutalresonance.com/review/nolongerhuman-withdrawal/ |website=www.brutalresonance.com |access-date=30 January 2022 |language=en}}</ref> The third full-length nolongerhuman album entered the Top 10 Albums list on the German Electronic Web Charts (GEWC) after it's release, hitting #8 the week of September 21, 2014.
