Atomic Kitten was the album by Atomic Kitten for the American market. The girl group had previously been successful in the United Kingdom and Europe and already released "Right Now" and "Feels So Good" which both went to number one in the UK album chart, however there had not been any release in the United States. It was therefore decided to make an album consisting of tracks of both previous albums.

Unlike Europe and United Kingdom, the success of Atomic Kitten in the United States was limited. The American music market is difficult for British and European acts and therefore the girl group teamed up with Disney for "The Lizzie McGuire Movie" starring Hilary Duff. Virgin Records and Atomic Kitten were hopeful since "The Tide Is High" peaked at #42 on the Billboard Hot 100, however the album peaked at #102 on the album chart just missing the Top 100.

It was also released in New Zealand, where both "Right Now" and "Feels So Good" were successful and peaked at #7.
