History
Formation and Brutal Records Years: 2002-2004
In early 2002, Jesse Korman and Justin Pedrick both met through a mutual acquaintance, and recruiting Christopher Conger, Jamie McIlroy and Alexis Pareja, formed the bass-free outfit And Ever. After releasing a five-song demo and playing a handful of songs together, the band's style began to change slightly, and they soon changed their name to The Number Twelve Looks Like You, a name taken from the
title of an episode of the
The Twilight Zone.
In early 2003, with newly added bassist Mike Smagula, the band was heard at a live show by an A&R representative from Brutal Records, who was impressed, informed the heads of the record label about the band. After hearing all the songs the band had currently recorded, the label signed the band in March and commissioned them to record two new songs, which along with the songs they'd already recorded, were soon released on the bands first full-length album,
Put On Your Rosy Red Glasses.
Eyeball Record Years: 2004-Present
After extensive touring in promotion of
Put On Your Rosy Red Glasses, the band began to catch the attention of
Eyeball Records, and eventually they were signed in October 2004. Soon thereafter the band returned the studio and began work on recording their first release for Eyeball,
An Inch Of Gold For An Inch Of Time. The EP, released on January 25, 2005, featured a cover of
The Knack's hit, "
My Sharona", two new songs, and a re-recording of "Don't Get Blood On My Prada Shoes" and "Jesus And Tori", from their first full-length.
After a short promotional tour for
An Inch Of Gold For An Inch Of Time, the band returned to the studio in March, and with producer D. James Goodwin, recorded their follow-up full length
Nuclear. Sad. Nuclear.. Finished in seven days and later released on June 7, the album contained, amongst 10 new tracks, re-recordings of two tracks featured on
An Inch Of Gold For An Inch Of Time, "Like A Cat" and "Clarissa Explains Cuntainment".
On June 19, 2007, the band released another full length album,
Mongrel, which featured all new material, with songs such as "El Pinata de la Muerte" and "Sleeping With the Fishes, See?"
In late 2007 / early 2008, The Number Twelve Looks Like You showcased their new video for the song "Grandfather", from the
Mongrel album.
Drummer Jon Karel will be the touring drummer for
HORSE the Band for their Earth Tour 2008 in the absence of their drummer Chris Prophet
As of Early 2008, The Number Twelve Looks Like You will be soon releasing a live CD/Dvd entitled, "
Here At The End Of All Things."
