The Human League: Romantic Antics
David Stubbs, Melody Maker, 15 September 1990
THE HUMAN LEAGUE are back among us, more serious than ever, not for a last gasp, but completely reinvigorated and rewired – after what practically amounts to a six-year hiatus, if you discount 1986's somewhat unconfident submission to the Jerry Jam/Terry Lewis hit factory that produced the excellent 'Human'.
