Under Attack is the thirteenth studio album by the German thrash metal band Destruction, released on 13 May 2016.[4]
Regarding the title track, vocalist Marcel "Schmier" Schirmer said: "I think we are all under attack, it all starts with our mobile phones and our computers, (...) We are a hi-tech society, Under Attack was (...) a perfect title for showing the state of the earth, we're definitely going to have a lot of problems in the future if we don't wake up soon and chase some stuff. We always change stuff when it's too late!"[5]
The lyrics on the song Second to None deal with cyber bullying and harassment, especially over the internet.[5]
