Nashville, Tenn. (July 3, 2013) - WE AS HUMAN's debut, self-titled album has landed as one of the highest Christian Rock debuts of the year. The album continues to shatter expectations, entering the Billboard Christian Albums Chart at No. 3, the Billboard Hard Rock Albums Chart at No. 8 and the Billboard Rock Albums Chart at No. 21. In addition to a strong presence in the Top 10 of the iTunes® Rock Albums Chart last week, WE AS HUMAN's explosive release also broke into the Top 70 of the Billboard 200, a feat matched by few other debut acts.

Last week, media outlets gave unprecedented acclaim for the new album, calling it "perfect," "flawless" and "the epitome of what rock music is missing these days." Critics continue to marvel at the quality of the debut release:

"This is hard-hitting, but also uplifting, spiritually inclined rock that straddles the line between radio-ready melodicism and in-your-face guitar power."
- All Music

"Musically the songs are perfect, the recording job is perfect, post-production is perfect. WE AS HUMAN is on the speed track to commercial success."
- Lifter Magazine

"WE AS HUMAN have everything they need to explode."
- Indie Vision Music

As they prepare for their opening festival slots this fall, WE AS HUMAN thrilled fans at Creation Fest and Kings Fest over the weekend with surprise performances with John Cooper's Skillet for their song "Zombie." The band will open for Skillet, Shinedown and others during the Carnival of Madness 2013 Tour. For more information on upcoming tour dates, visit www.weashuman.com.

About WE AS HUMAN:
WE AS HUMAN signed to Atlantic Records via Hear It Loud, a partnership helmed by John Cooper of Skillet, manager Zach Kelm and attorney Todd Rubenstein, in 2011 after they were discovered by Cooper. Made up of musicians Justin Cordle, Jake Jones, Justin Forshaw, Adam Osborne and Dave Draggoo, the band toured heavily at the start of their major label career, performing before sold-out shows on the "Awake and Alive" Tour with Skillet, Winter Jam 2012, "Release the Panic Tour" with RED and will open on the Carnival of Madness Tour in 2013. Their debut album WE AS HUMAN released in June 2013 and was declared the "epitome of what rock music is missing these days."
