Thunder, Lightning, Strike is the debut album by The Go! Team. It was released on British label Memphis Industries in 2004 (see 2004 in music) and was nominated for the 2005 Mercury Music Prize.
The album was re-released in the U.S. and UK by Columbia Records in October 2005. It was slightly remixed (due to sample clearance issues) and contains bonus tracks. It peaked at #48 in the UK in February 2006, some 18 months after its original release.
