Lightning to the Nations is the debut album by heavy metal band Diamond Head. The album was recorded in 1979 (after the 1977 and 1979 demos) and released in 1980 through their own label Happy Face Records, due to lack of interest from major labels and the band feeling that they needed to get the ball rolling as other bands from the same era, such as Iron Maiden and Def Leppard, were already becoming big names. Metal Blade Records re-released it on Compact Disc in 1992.

  • Lightning to the nations on Diamond Headin vuonna 1980 julkaisema studioalbumi. Lightning to the nations on alun perin nimetön, ja sitä kutsutaan myös White Albumiksi. Albumi on tunnettu heavy metal-bändien piirissä erittäin hyvin, esimerkiksi Metallica on tehnyt cover-versiot kappaleista The Prince, Sucking My Love, Am I Evil?, It's Electric ja Helpless. Levy julkaistiin Independentin nimissä, ja levy on nauhoitettu Old Smithy Recording Studiossa, Worcesterissä, Englannissa.
  • Lightning to the Nations è il primo album pubblicato dai Diamond Head. È stato registrato nel 1979, e fu rilasciato nel 1980. I quattro, non riuscendo a trovare un contratto discografico soddisfacente, e avendo un buon supporto di pubblico, decisero di autopubblicarsi l'album senza aspettare un contratto. Il disco era reperibile ai loro concerti, ma poteva anche essere ordinato per posta. A causa del minor costo di produzione, la copertina era completamente bianca. Per questo è spesso identificato come The White Album. Le prime copie furono personalmente autografate dai quattro componenti, ma non avevano neanche la lista dei brani.
