    Listen to it twice before you decide. I wasn't completely blown away the first time through, but the more I listen to it, the more I enjoy it. There's not a bad song, in my opinion. I really like the sound of "The Night."

    This album makes you feel the bass drum pounding into your chest and as the lyrics truly make anyone feel indestructible. This has to be my favorite album of all time. My itunes library has over 3000 listens recorded of "Indestructible". To Disturbed- great job. To potential listeners- don't deny yourself this masterpiece.

    Oh boy, more generic mainstream rock, how fun. This gives metal a bad name, if you can even call it metal.

    This album is alright but it could have been better, but i really liked it. The album made my top 10's but Asylum is still really far ahead. My favorite song on this album is Inside the fire, the song meaning reached my inner being. One thumb up, One thumb down.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I agree with a lot of other reviewers; Just listening it to it once doesn't do it justice. It took me the second time around to really like this album, though I do have two problems. First of all, the title track ("Indestructible", the song, not the album) is a little inconsistent. When I first heard it, it totally blew me away, and it continued to blow me for quite some time. However, it grew a bit old, and now, I get that adrenaline rush only sometimes, as opposed to all the time. Second, I don't like the choppiness of the pre-chorus in "The Night", it disturbs the melodic flow of the song, but great album nonetheless.… Expand

    Their best album yet. Very consistent throughout; I've listened to it again and again without finding tracks I prefer to skip. The band sounds tighter than ever.

    A little repetitive, but one of the best albums, if not the best, of 2008.

    Indestructible seems like a the best parts of all three of their previous albums, and then some. It's got the animalistic growls of David Draiman, as well as his surprisingly melodic turn heard in "Believe". Dan Donegan has also vastly improved, almost every track has a raging solo. So in other words, this is the best disturbed album to date, and is definitely a must-buy.

    Solid album fro start to finish.Changes things up enough from their previous work to keep me interested all the way through. First album in a long time by a so called "neu-metal" band that isn't filled with filler tracks copied from whatever single that their produce told them to release first.

    I thought the band was very solid on this album, especially the drums and guitars. However you can tell Draiman is on the downward spiral, lacking impressive vocals and interesting lyrics.

    The rock is hard, and the sound is great, but the singing is really uninspired when compared to their last 2 albums. I want the screams! Other than that, this CD isn't quite 'disturbed' enough for some's liking.

    Great album, and only one song is a re-release! All-new and spectacular. Loved it at first note, Listened to it many times through, and still love it.

    This album is definitely Disturbed's best outing yet, with relentless riffs and pounding beats, which are all perfectly intertwined with the lyrics to create a near-perfect album. If you are a fan of any kind of hard rock/metal, then this album is for you!

    This CD draws from each of their previous records and builds upon them. The guitar solos are the greatest addition. A must-have for Disturbed fans.

    This album is by far their best to date. If you are a Disturbed fan, you owe it to yourself to purchase this album. It's definitely worth it with great songs like Inside the Fire and Criminal.

    Okay, it`s Disturbed, and I`m a big fan....That said, I was a bit disappointed after listening to Indestructible for the first time. It just didn't have the power of The Sickness and Ten Thousand Fists and even Believe. Sure its melodic, but I want the "Liberate your mind" stuff back cause thats what Disturbed is all about for me.

    At first, Indestructible didn't really impress me. But after listening a couple of times, it's become one of my favorite hard rock albums. Even though a vast majority will tell you that the title track is the best, my personal favorite is "Divide". Definitely check this album out.

    Its good...but not as exciting as their previous albums..I liked one song, which is Indestructible..and the rest was probably "eh, ok." Their metal music is truly heavy metal, but being exciting was not as I hoped it was.

    I hate that this incredible album is regarded as less of a sucess than "Asylum." I personally believe this album is much more emotive, entertaining, dark and satisfying. One of Disturbs bests. "Criminal" for instance, is an amazing track, ferocious and angry, yet also catchy and remisicent of the more groove-orientated tracks on The sickness. Love this album.

    This was the final album by Disturbed that I listened to in its entirety and it was certainly worth the wait. Despite its dark message Inside the Fire is brilliant but away from singles, songs such as The Curse, Enough and Torn are just brilliant to listen to. I couldn't score it 10 because for me it has to be pure brilliance which it nearly was. My song pick is The Night.

    Of all of this band's albums, this one is their absolute best. Disturbed has a great sound, good lyrics, and a nice aesthetic. But in every album, there's always at least three songs that make me go "This isn't right... Are we suddenly listening to pop trying to be metal now?". Not this time. Only one song on this album didn't really sound good to me. But even that song was at leastOf all of this band's albums, this one is their absolute best.

    While Indestructible doesn't meddle with the melodic hard-hitting Pantera-inspired formula that fueled its predecessors, the dreaded nu-metal tag that followed the band out of the turn of the century seems wholly eradicated.

    The group backs it up with a forceful sonic fusillade that recalls Disturbed's 2000 debut, "The Sickness," while doing away with some of the melodic niceties that crept into "Ten Thousand Fists" and 2002's "Believe," right down to Draiman's jungle animal vocals.

    In failing to take up the sword as they should, therefore, they wind up sounding a little lost on Indestructible, stabbing their weapons without any reasons behind each parry, setting up vague agendas they cannot follow through on. Despite this, it’s still a reliably solid, passable hard-rock soundtrack for 2008.
