There are at least four bands named Attila:

(1) Psychedelic group including Billy Joel that released one self-titled album.
(2) A metal band from Atlanta, GA.
(3) A NYC metal band formed in 1983.
(4) A french DJ who is producing flashcore, glitch, noise & experimental

(1) Attila was also the name of a band featuring a young Billy Joel. Billy was a member of a band called The Hassles; he and the drummer, Jon Small, broke away from the Hassles and formed this duo. The instrumentation was mostly organ and drums, with Billy Joel also handling the bass lines with a keyboard. Their creative partnership ended when Joel allegedly ran off with Small's wife.

They released only one album, "Attila," in 1970, later reissued by CBS in 1985. Attila is often selected by critics and other music journalists as one of the worst rock albums of all time; however, although it's not an easily accessible album, its unique jazz-metal fusion has become a cult favorite amongst Joel's fans. One track from the album, "Amplifier Fire, Part 1 (Godzilla)," appears on Joel's 2005 boxed set "My Lives."

(2) Party death metal rockers Attila hail from Atlanta, Georgia where they formed in 2005. Attila is currently signed to Statik Factory Records. Attila has gone through a few lineup changes, but founding members Fronz and Sean have remained with the band through the years. Currently, the band consists of Fronz (vocals), Nate (guitar), Chris (guitar), Sean (drums) and Chris (bass). This lineup brought together Attila’s sound and image that they are known for today.

Their released albums are Fallacy (2007), Soundtrack to a Party (2008), and Rage (2010)

(3) Attilla is a long forgotten Heavy Metal band which was formed in the City of New York in 1983. Having released only one full length album in 1986, Rolling Thunder, the band then went into the unknown. One track, called Lucifer's Hammer was featured on the first Speed Metal Hell compilation record which was issued under New Renaissance Records in 1985.
