Thunderlip is a rock & roll band from Wilmington, North Carolina.
Thunderlip began in 2005. They started off playing shows locally, and quickly got picked up by Lucid Records ( now defunct ) and put out their "S/T" release in June 2005. They toured heavily on this release and the record peaked to #90 on the CMJ charts. Through exstensive tours they landed clothing and shoe endorsements from Matix Clothing and DVS shoes. They were also endorsed by Vestal Watch and Electric Visual. They played many surf expos, and in late 2005 they were voted best metal band by Fuel TV. They continued touring on the S/T release throughout most of 2006, and in early 2007 they tracked their second release "The Prophecy". This was also released by Lucid Records. They did several tours for this record, including the Props Visual Road Fools BMX tour (which included such riders as Matt Hoffman, Mike Aitken, and Chase Hawk). The tour also included Lucero, and was sponsored by Levi's. The band slowed down in early 2009, eventually leading to a long-term hiatus. The hiatus would end in late 2010. The band has re-grouped and began working on new material.
