Arctic Thunder is the 16th studio album by Norwegian band Darkthrone. It was released 14 October 2016 by Peaceville Records.[3][4] It was recorded from August to December 2015 at Necrohell II Studios.[5][6] The first single from the album was "Tundra Leech".

The album was named after a Norwegian metal band, active from 1985 to 1989. Darkthrone received permission to use the name. The album's music is a combination of the band's 90's black metal sound with the classic heavy metal influence of their previous record.
