Attahk is the eighth studio album by Magma. It was released in 1978.
After Üdü Ẁüdü, Magma disbanded for a year until reuniting under a slightly different direction than before. This album incorporated elements of funk, R&B, gospel, and pop music.[1]
Some songs on this album - such as "Rindë" - as well as some from Live/Hhaï (1975) and Üdü Ẁüdü (1976) - are incorporated in Ëmëhntëhtt-Ré (2009).
