BRANDED LIKE AN ANIMAL
I CAN STILL FEEL
THE BURN IN MY MIND
I DO BELIEVE YOU'VE MADE
YOUR MESSAGE CLEAR
Indestructible
is the fourth
studio album
by American
heavy metal band
A self-produced effort,
Indestructible
is the first
Disturbed album
that did not feature
Johnny K,
the producer of
Disturbed's
previous three albums,
The Sickness,
Believe,
and
Ten Thousand Fists.
Indestructible
was recorded at
Groovemaster Studios
in Chicago, Illinois.
The album features
two songs,
"Perfect Insanity"
and
"Divide",
that were written by
Disturbed prior
to their first album,
The Sickness,
but were never
previously released.
The album shows
Disturbed abandoning
the nu metal sound
prominent on their
previous three albums
and features significantly
darker themes
than any of their
previous work,
according to the band.
Some of the
lyrical themes involve
actual experiences
that vocalist
David Draiman
had endured over
the course of the
past few years
prior to making
the album,
including
"bad relationships",
a motorcycle accident
that he was involved with,
and an incident of suicide.
To match the
aggressive attitude
and nature of
said themes,
Draiman told the other
band members to
create darker,
more textural music
than they have before.
Despite these themes,
the title track,
"Indestructible",
is meant to encourage
those in the military
that are fighting
in wars and
boost their morale.
Indestructible
was released on
June 3, 2008
in CD format,
and also as
two different
limited edition
(With DVD)
and
Deluxe Edition
digipaks,
debuting at
number one
on the
Billboard 200,
making it the
third consecutive
number one debut
by Disturbed
on that chart,
which had only been
achieved by
five other rock bands
prior to the
album's release.
The album also
shipped over
253,000 units
in its opening week.
Indestructible
was met with
mixed reviews by critics,
earning a score of
57% on
review-aggregating website
Metacritic,
based on six reviews.
The album was
certified 2× Platinum
by the
Recording Industry
Association of America
in March 2025
for shipping over
2,000,000 copies
in the United States.
The single
"Inside the Fire"
was nominated for a
2009 Grammy Award
in the
"Best Hard Rock Performance"
category
