TNT, also referred to as TNT II, is the second self-titled studio album by the Brazilian rock band TNT, released in 1988 by RCA Records. Their last release with original drummer Felipe Jotz, it sees the band shifting away from their previous "juvenile" rockabilly sound towards a more "mature" direction influenced by pop rock, a trend which would culminate in their subsequent release, 1991's Noite Vem, Noite Vai.[1] "A Irmã do Dr. Robert" was the album's greatest hit, and led TNT to play at the popular TV show Globo de Ouro in 1988.[2]
