The second album of [[Car Bomb (band)|Car Bomb]]

'''''w^w^^w^w''''' is the second studio album by the American band [[Car Bomb (band)|Car Bomb]], published in 2012.<ref name=CarBomnb>{{ cite web |author= |accessdate=2016-11-09 |date=| title=WWWW | url=http://carbomb.bandcamp.com/album/w-w-w-w }}</ref> The album was first released online, reaching the #2 spot on Bandcamp.com's top sellers list during the first week of October 2012.<ref>{{cite web|title=Car Bomb: Entire New Album Available For Streaming|url=http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/car-bomb-entire-new-album-available-for-streaming/|website=Blabbermouth.net|date=9 October 2012 |accessdate=8 December 2016}}</ref>

==Track Listing==

# "The Sentinel" – 3:18

In a statement at the time of the album's release, the band described their approach as involving fractal patterning that many may find to be chaotic. "Most people will hear just random noise when listening to this record, but to us it's all really simple ideas. We're fascinated by the book ''[[Gödel, Escher, Bach]]'' by [[Douglas Hofstadter]] and we try to make music that is recursive. We try to establish certain themes and then shape and reuse them in different ways to create songs that have common threads within them. Patterns repeat, but not in ways you'd expect."<ref>{{cite web|title=CAR BOMB: More New Album Details Revealed|url=http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/car-bomb-more-new-album-details-revealed/|website=Blabbermouth.net|date=2 October 2012 |accessdate=8 December 2016}}</ref>

# "Auto-Named" – 0:50

# "Finish It" – 2:35

Reviews praise the album's rhythmic ferocity and chaotic nature. Doug Moore, in a positive review for ''[[Invisible Oranges]],'' argues that "Most of Car Bomb’s riffs boil down to alien percussive sounds, mapped onto Byzantine rhythms."<ref>{{cite web|last1=Moore|first1=Doug|title=Review: Car Bomb – w^w^^w^w|url=http://www.invisibleoranges.com/car-bomb-%E2%80%93-wwww/|website=[[Invisible Oranges]]|accessdate=8 December 2016}}</ref> Andy O'Connor, writing for Pitchfork.com, compares Car Bomb to the influential Swedish metal band [[Meshuggah]]. “You’d be forgiven for thinking that New York experimental metal quartet Car Bomb were a Meshuggah tribute band. [… but] There are imitators, and there are groups who understand the essence, the soul of a group and build upon that distinctive sound. Car Bomb fall in the latter group.” <ref>{{cite web|last1=O'Connor|first1=Andy|title=Car Bomb "w^w^^w^w" (Review)|url=http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/17309-wwwv/|website=Pitchfork Music|accessdate=8 December 2016}}</ref>
