''Mongrel'' is the third full-length album by American math metal band The Number Twelve Looks Like You. Recorded in Seattle over a four-month period, it is the follow-up to 2005's ''Nuclear. Sad. Nuclear.''. In its opening week, it reached a Peak Position of 19 on the Top Heatseeker, and 34 on top Independent Albums Billboard Charts.〔7 〕 This album adds progressive metal, thrash metal, salsa, funk and many more genres to the band's sound. On April 12, 2015 the album was re-released on limited addition, hand numbered cassettes. ==Sound and style== Singer Jesse Korman, describing the album, has stated: "We don't want to sound like anybody else. We stepped it up to the point where we've killed everything we've ever done previously, while a lot of bands that started out heavier have seemed to be going more melodic and easier on crowds — at least that's the trend. It seems to be the path a lot of these heavy bands are going these days, and we didn't want our fans to be like, 'Oh no, it's all just going to be melodic.' We wanted to make sure we really kicked some ass (''Mongrel'' ). I don't know where we fit in, genre-wise, but this record's definitely something you've never heard before. On top of being incredibly heavy, there's stuff in there that's just the catchiest stuff I've heard in so long." In a lead-up to the album's release a number of cryptic postings concerning the album were found on the internet by fans of the band. These included a video clip featuring a snippet of "Sleeping With The Fishes, See?" and three websites, displaying lyrics to "Grandfather" and "Sleeping With The Fishes, See?" as well as album artwork.〔4 http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/ciu/ed/90/dc2f9833e7a069d62f443110.L.jpg〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mongrel (The Number Twelve Looks Like You album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
