Shooting at the Sun is the sixth studio album by British hard rock band Thunder. Released in the spring of 2003, it was their first studio release following their decision to reform in 2002 after a hiatus of more than two years. It was also their first release on their new label STC Recordings in the UK, although Frontiers Records was responsible for the mainland Europe release and JVC/Victor Records for the Japanese one.
