Originally formed on Long Island, New York in 2000, CAR BOMB is a band whose style is marked by a highly experimental and extremely aggressive approach to progressive metal. Their unpredictable blend of evolving polyrhythms, shifting tempos, syncopated down-tuned guitars, jazz-influenced drumming, harmonically deconstructive riffing, and dynamic vocals create a sound that is pulverizing and intensely disorienting.
CAR BOMB released their debut album Centralia on Relapse Records in 2007, and supported the record on US tours with High on Fire, Pig Destroyer in 2008 and Gojira in 2009. They self-released their second album w^w^^w^w (pronounced “w-click-w” or “the waveform album”) in 2012. It featured guest vocals by Joseph Duplantier of Gojira, whom they would again tour with later that year. In 2014, Meshuggah invited CAR BOMB to open for them during the European leg of their 25th anniversary tour.
CAR BOMB released their third album Meta in the fall of 2016. The band kicked off the release with shows supporting Gojira and Tesseract as well as opening for The Dillinger Escape Plan on their farewell US tour. In early 2017, CAR BOMB headed back to Europe/UK opening up for Gojira. The band then headlined their own European tour in September before returning to the US in October to support Animals as Leaders and Periphery.
CAR BOMB released their new album Mordial on September 27th 2019, touring with Animals As Leaders and headlining Euroblast in Cologne, Germany.
The band are:
Michael Dafferner – Vocals
Elliot Hoffman – Drums
Greg Kubacki – Guitar
Jon Modell – Bass
