, stylised as RADWIMPS 3 ~Mujintō ni Motte Ikiwasureta Ichimai~, is Japanese rock band Radwimps' third album, and debut major label album under Toshiba EMI, released on February 15, 2006. The album was an extremely long seller. It sold 13,800 copies in its first week and spent a single week in the top 40, however has spent 161 weeks charting in the top 300 since its release, and has been certified a platinum selling album by the RIAJ. Background and development Radwimps 3 was recorded in three different recording sessions, with the first in Summer 2005. The band continued to record until September 2005, as the members still had high school to attend in October. Vocalist Yojiro Noda felt the separated recording sessions made the process much more fresh, and that he could put power into every song they recorded. This technique was different to what the band did for their first two albums, which were collections of recordings accumulated until the band had enough material for an album. Bassist Yusuke Takeda noted how their previous technique made album producing feel like work, and that it made the process dull. Radwimps 3 was finished being recorded in December 2005. Another
