The Number 12 Looks Like You

[cobert]

Sup forum, this is my first thread here.

I was wondering if anyone here likes this band? Im really getting into them, and 'If These Bullets Could Talk' is probably my favorite song. The second CD was still good, and i thought it was cool some of the songs sounded almost jazzy.

Discussinate.

[BASSisFun101]

I really dislike them.

[Mute Print]

They're all right. They're different than a lot of the bands I listen to, so that's cool. I have to listen to more of them though.

[cbmartinez]

Overrated but good. I like how spazzy they are but still manage to throw in some melodic vocal/guitar stuff.

[Understanding In a Crash]

Underrated but great. As musicians they are lovely, as vocalists they are viewed as unique or horrible.

They got some great cover songs and I can love them for that alone. Plus most of their shows involve no stage :thumb:

Example: My sharona

[Converge#12]

Best band. But there as been numerous threads about them.

[94_Hours]

they're a wild band with a couple of WILD AND CRAZY GUYS in it
(I hope somebody got that joke)

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

123. Nuclear Sad Nuclear is great. Every song on it it hits the spot. Definetly my favorite record. I got some of my friends into them. I really admire the guitarist a lot and hope to be as good as them one day. I might be seeing them in August.

[Mike Goes Numb]

Great band, I really love Civeta Dei. Favorite song by them.

[RetiredAt21]

I don't like them as much as I used to, but they are alright I guess.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

I also like their lyrics a lot. They are very interesting. The lyrics for Proud Parents and Clarissa Explains Cuntainment are some of the best ever.

[Gnarmageddon]

Great band. 'Jesus And Tori' is probably my favorite song of theirs.

[conniption]

great musicianship, great live show, great lyrics=great band



haha, this is the fourth thread on them since ive been on mx

[RetiredAt21]

There are mad threads on this band.

[factor46]

They're coming down here to Florida later this august. I'm gonna try and go. Hopefully their live performance sounds as awesome as they do on cd. Their new one is really good.

You cannot even imagine how good they are live!

[Shikyo]

You cannot even imagine how good they are live!
Total agreeage with you. They are very chaotic and crazy.

[RetiredAt21]

August Burns Red are way better live.

[cobert]

Oh, i didnt realize. I think i remember seeing one over in R/M, but thats it.

[loserdistrict]

Example: My sharona
123 I love that song

[Converge#12]

Its ok if any band deserves 4 threads its The Number12

[frmautumTOashes]

I really like the Number Twelve. They're kind of like a mix of FBTMOF, BTBAM, and DEP. My favorite song is "An Aptly Fictional Description." It got a cool jazzy part in it.

I barely see how you can compare Number 12 to those bands but ok.

[Guitar Symphony]

I barely see how you can compare Number 12 to those bands but ok.

He wasn't comparing though. Notice the word "mix". gg


Yea, I like Number12. Proablly the craziest stuff I've listened too. And no, My sharona is a bad example, they ruined one of my favorite oldies songs.

[Converge#12]

Yeah he was, he was comparing the sound.

[Guitar Symphony]

Yeah he was, he was comparing the sound.

Umm, no. He was saying it sounded like a mix of them. If he was comparing he would actually have to say "Number12 sounds like [band] and this [band]". And I think his mix about right too.

[Converge#12]

Umm, no. He was saying it sounded like a mix of them. If he was comparing he would actually have to say "Number12 sounds like [band] and this [band]". And I think his mix about right too.
He was saying it sounded LIKE a mix of them. You just contradicted yourself.

[frmautumTOashes]

Well I just like band names that are really long, and they are all long names. And Number 12, does kind of sound like them. Vocals of FBTMOF, Melodic parts like BTBAM, some jazz influences and the intensity of DEP.

[RetiredAt21]

FBTMOF suck.

[cobert]

FBTMOF suck.

I endorse this message.

[Guitar Symphony]

He was saying it sounded LIKE a mix of them. You just contradicted yourself.

No, I didn't. But I'll let this one go.

[conniption]

my friend just tabbed out if these bullets could talk on mxtabs.net
it still needs to be pended but if it gets two more votes then it will be on the site.
hes also gonna tab jesus and tori.
yep.

[RetiredAt21]

Your friend must be pretty good at guitar.

[UnDeRoAtHfAn777]

Your friend must be pretty good at guitar.
agreed

i don't normally go to the shows in my town but i went to this one and it was pretty **** awsome. do they have other albums apart from nuclear sad nuclear and inch of gold... cuz i have those and i don't see any 'if these bullets could talk' or 'Civeta Dei'

[DOLEMITE]

i like them but we all can agree that btbam are so much better in every way

[whiteminority]

i like them but we all can agree that btbam are so much better in every way
hell yeah.

[RetiredAt21]

I also agree.

[factor46]

do they have other albums apart from nuclear sad nuclear and inch of gold... cuz i have those and i don't see any 'if these bullets could talk' or 'Civeta Dei'

Yeah, they released an EP before both of those albums.

It's called "Put On Your Rosy Red Glasses"

I believe both of those songs are on this cd.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

I'm in the process of writing a review for Nuclear Sad Nuclear but I don't know what genre it is.

[cbmartinez]

Metalcore

[RetiredAt21]

Was anyone else REALLY dissapointed with Nuclear Sad Nuclear?

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

I liked it a lot.

[Converge#12]

Was anyone else REALLY dissapointed with Nuclear Sad Nuclear?
If your refering to the clean guitar... I had not problem with that. I like it obviously not as much as there previous 2 releases.

[conniption]

Was anyone else REALLY dissapointed with Nuclear Sad Nuclear?

right here, it basically sucked besides a few songs, they had about 5 fillers on it, they pulled off the same thing with put on your... but put on your... was an amazing cd.

[thekingofmajik]

I like any band that makes me feel like im having my skin grafted

[deadohiosky9]

they suck fat dicks.

[Sep]

Wow. I am listening to "If These Bullets could Talk" on their purevolume page now and am blown away.
That song is ****ing incredible.

[(>dragon~guitarist<)]

Their cover of "My Sharona" was not very good, however their other songs are incredible.

[ITRIEDVOODOOONCE]

I saw them live in august, their live show is amazing. Imagine all of their songs to the point where you can feel the bass and it just feels 5k times heavier. Underrated or overrated they are still one of the best bands out there and nuclear.sad.nuclear is one of the most unique and hardcore albums out that ivie heard.
if you are new to them just download their set list, its all you need

Bambi The Hooker And a Case Of Beer
Jesus and Tori
Clarissa Explains Cuntainment
If Bullets Could Talk
Civeta Dei
Proud Parents Convention
Devils Dick Disaster
Texas Dolly
Dont Get Blood On my Prada Shoes

[mikexmcdaniel]

From a Second Story Window + Converge + The Number Twelve Looks Like You = pretty much the only metalcore i listen to.

The # 12 is awesome

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

I wouldn't call The Number 12 Looks Like You metalcore

[RetiredAt21]

Yeah, they aren't metalcore. I'm not really sure what they are though.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

They have different elements in their music. They have some screamo and grind among other stuff.

[RetiredAt21]

Well, I'd say their older stuff is almost grind, but the new stuff isn't even close. I guess screamo is what I'd call them. I'm not totally sure though.

[ITRIEDVOODOOONCE]

their new stuff is hardly screamo, i would say that it is just near undefinable. It is basically clean grind.

[RetiredAt21]

If it's clean, it's not grind. Duh.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Well the old stuff had some grind.

[(>dragon~guitarist<)]

More grind than anything

[ITRIEDVOODOOONCE]

If it's clean, it's not grind. Duh.

simply for the fact no one has done it, Ill tell you this its definetly not screamo, as in **** bands like hawthorne hieghts, and other screamo bands.

[Puma]

simply for the fact no one has done it, Ill tell you this its definetly not screamo, as in **** bands like hawthorne hieghts, and other screamo bands.

Hawthorne Heights aren't screamo. :rolleyes:

Number Twelve are pretty good. I haven't heard their new stuff, but I just listened to Put On Your Rosy Red Glasses. Great CD.

[IsItLuck?]

From a Second Story Window + Converge + The Number Twelve Looks Like You = i listen to.



Those three bands are pretty much my favorite in whatever genre you want to call it. I saw #12 in a church hall in NJ, craziest show I've been to. I'm going to see Converge November 20th at the stony pony ;)

[Sep]

So I downloaded the EP, except for the last track (the cover) 'cause that one wouldn't download.

I have come to realize what an absolutly mindblowing band this is.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

What took you so long?

[Sep]

Never really bothered to listen to them. (Except for Jesus And Tori)

[cbmartinez]

Number 12 are tech metal/metalcore.

[Times Ten]

They aren't amazing.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

You are wrong.

[cbmartinez]

They're alright. I like the fact the can be really spastic but they still throw in the occasional cool guitar/bass melody or harmony. But their not incredible.

[Sep]

I think they are.

My Sharona is such a cool cover.

[Dancin' Man]

Clarissa Explains Cuntainment is a super good song.

Great band. I love how they are all good enough to be super technical but aren't except for rare highlighted occasions.

I feel it's safe to use the term progressive when describing them. Also, they eel like a hardcore/metalcore split to me.

[smoss]

I love them... (The number 12)

Speaking of FASSW, I had guitar lessons from thier guitarist.

[ITRIEDVOODOOONCE]

Andrew + Derek = Gay Butt Sex

[mikexmcdaniel]

Number 12 are tech metal/metalcore.

Agreed

But their not incredible.

Not Agreed

[smoss]

Andrew + Derek = Gay Butt Sex

Way to get in on it hah.

[frmautumTOashes]

I really like this band, but I haven't listened to them in a while, sooo now that everyone has reminded me how good they are I'm gonna go listen to them.

[LordWorm in 3-D]

I think they're good, i need to hear more stuff tho

[Salivation]

This is one of my favorite meldoic bands

Check out the songs "jesus and tori" and "like a cat"

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Someone is late.

[Tim_Tabasco]

i just listened to if these bullets could talk, and i kinda dont like the vocals it more sounds like background vocals missing leadvocals... also their drums (bassdrum) isnt really my stuff...

are the other songs different?

[A_Perfect_Sonnet]

simply for the fact no one has done it, Ill tell you this its definetly not screamo, as in **** bands like hawthorne hieghts, and other screamo bands.

CTTS is screamo :(.

[cobert]

Someone is late.

:lol:

Dont get blood on my prada shoes is a really good song.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

I love everything by this band. Definetly one of my favorite bands and Nuclear Sad Nuclear is definetly one of the best albums of 2005 in my opinion.

[cobert]

Whats the song (i think its on nuclear sad nuclear) that begins really jazzy, its in 3/4 time, and it sounds like hes saying 'where are my pants' when he starts screaming? Vague description, i know, but i need some help here.

[Jessizzle]

I like them. But I can only stand them for a little while.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

The song is "The Devil's D'ick Dissaster"

[Converge#12]

Chree quit.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

I know. He quit a little more than a month ago. I believe they have a new drummer. They need to tour and get their a'sses over here soon.

[Converge#12]

I saw them over the summer. Amazing show! So energetic.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

I wanted to see them over the summer but the show was like 1 hour away and no one would want to pick me up at 11:00 and drive all the way back.

[Converge#12]

I wanted to see them over the summer but the show was like 1 hour away and no one would want to pick me up at 11:00 and drive all the way back.
That is the story of my life.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

That sucks.

[cobert]

The song is "The Devil's D'ick Dissaster"

Thanks you, kind sir.

My sister saw them over the summer, and i wanted to go, but she somehow totally forgot i wanted to. Sounds like i got ditched.

[Converge#12]

That sucks.
Yeah although lucky for me bands like Cut Throat, Colin of Arabia, and 25 ta life play 15 minutes away.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Thanks you, kind sir.

My sister saw them over the summer, and i wanted to go, but she somehow totally forgot i wanted to. Sounds like i got ditched.
Anytime. Your sister sounds like a douche.

[cobert]

Yeah, basically. I bitch about her way too much around MX.
