The CD format offers the album in uncompromising sound quality, ideal for fans who want the full dynamic impact of the production and a physical edition for their collection, often including artwork and booklet with lyrics and band photos that underline the intense, apocalyptic mood of the record. This is a release aimed squarely at devoted thrash fans and collectors of classic and modern metal alike, fitting seamlessly into any serious metal shelf as a high-energy, headbanging listen from start to finish.
Destruction are one of the pioneering bands of German thrash metal, often cited alongside the genre's most influential names. Emerging in the early 1980s, they helped shape the raw, fast and aggressive sound that would define Teutonic thrash, inspiring countless bands worldwide. Over the decades, Destruction have built a reputation for uncompromising heaviness, relentless touring and a string of respected studio albums that cemented their status in the international metal scene. Their style combines breakneck speed, sharp riffing and a characteristic snarling vocal attack, appealing to both old-school fans and a younger generation discovering classic thrash. With "Under Attack", the band underline their longevity and consistency, proving that they still deliver intense, relevant metal without diluting the ferocity that made them legendary.
Nuclear Blast, the manufacturer and label behind this CD, is one of the most important and influential heavy music labels worldwide.

A Destruction release on Nuclear Blast stands for quality and authenticity: a combination of experienced label craftsmanship and a band that embodies the spirit of thrash metal.
"Under Attack" on CD is therefore more than just another album - it is a powerful snapshot of a veteran band still in fighting form, presented by a label that has become synonymous with first-class metal releases worldwide. Fans of fast, uncompromising and riff-driven thrash will find in this disc a release that both honours the genre's roots and shows that Destruction remain a vital force in contemporary metal.
