Abducted is the fourth studio album by Swedish melodic death metal band Hypocrisy, released in 1996. It saw the band move further into a more melodic direction than their earlier releases. The album was also released as a limited edition digipak, not to be confused with the non-limited edition digipak re-release. The album was since reissued alongside the band's earlier death metal albums, resulting in positive feedback.
The samples in the intro, "The Gathering", are taken from the so-called Halt Tape, which was allegedly recorded during the Rendlesham Forest incident on 26 December 1980.
Track listing
This digipack re-release features four live tracks recorded at the Nuclear Blast Festival on 25 September 2000.
