The lyrics on Zaba are also more abstract and strange than the ones on Human, and less enjoyable as a result. On Zaba, most of the songs sound pretty similar to each other, unlike Human, which has lots of musical diversity.

On Zaba, most of the songs sound pretty similar to each other, To me, Zaba is nearly as interesting or accessible as How To Be A Human Being. To me, Zaba is nearly as interesting or accessible as How To Be A Human Being.
It kicked my ass, and it'll kick your ass too. Zaba is Glass Animals, through and through. It's cool because it doesn't even need to try to be. It's a **** knock-out of a debut album, sporting catchy-yet-weird-as-hell tunes and esoteric, engaging lyrics that border on abstract poetry, along with that special Glass Animals swagger. But the more you listen, the more the differences stick out. That's just about the one negative argument I can lend any credence to, but I feel there's a difference between all the songs being the same, and just having a "sound." That "sameness" you hear between songs IS the sound of Glass Animals, and it's fleshed out and explored EXTENSIVELY across these 11 tracks. On the negative front, I've heard many complaints about the album feeling "samey" by the end. Dave Bayley's voice leads the band through 11 bangers, the instruments orbiting around him as he croons through the bushes, a constant rock of guidance throughout the album. The drum beats are incredibly distinctive (one of the many things lacking from GA's newest effort, How To Be A Human Being), lending a subtly different feel to each track.
And that metaphorical monster pounces at the end of nearly every song on Zaba, with each song taking its sweet time in its own way, eventually exploding or at the very least evolving into something even more interesting. The sounds and the textures of the songs feels like nothing else it's like you're wandering through a mysterious jungle on an alien planet while something massive watches you from afar, waiting. And I don't mean unique within the small scope Hip Hop, R&B or Pop, but wholly unique. The sounds and the Zaba is a very unique album.
