How to Be a Human Being is the second studio album by English indie rock group Glass Animals. It was released on 26 August 2016 by Wolf Tone and Caroline International in Europe, and Harvest Records in the United States. The album received critical acclaim for its "sense of wonder", and "immediate impression", though it was also met with some mixed reactions, for critics felt it was somewhat premature.
Following the release of their debut studio album Zaba, Glass Animals began an aggressive tour which saw them play over 140 concerts in Europe, Australia, the United States and Mexico. They appeared at Glastonbury, Falls Music Festival and Southbound in 2014, Coachella, Wakarusa, Bonnaroo, Firefly, Glastonbury again, Lollapalooza, Osheaga and Reading and Leads in 2015, and the Forecastle Festival in 2016.
How To Be A Human Being was simultaneously announced with the release of Life Itself and it's respective music video. The foursome toured Australia for their second time, before they returned to North America for the album's release. Four days after How To Be A Human Being was released, the band appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, their third appearance on primetime television.
