The Number Twelve Looks Like You - Worse Than Alone



Celebrating an underrated classic today.  This album is a 10 in every sense.  It's innovative, it's an amazing piece of musicianship, and most importantly; it's a blast.  I recommend you listen to the full playlist on youtube rather than simply listening to a track, but two of my favorites are below if you feel so inclined.  Delightful fusion of so many styles that wouldn't seem to work, but do.  Yes, it's a foundation of mathcore, but it transcends into a fairly progressive, and wholly impressive, amalgamation.  Sadly, this was the group's swan song.  I had the pleasure of seeing them twice touring with this album, once with Dillinger Escape Plan.  They were just as good, if not better live.
