Their song "Safe from Harm" hit No. 1 on the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart in 2002, featuring the lead vocals of Yvonne John Lewis.[2] It was also the first track released on Deep Dish's Yoshitoshi Records to top the U.S. dance chart.
In mid-2004, Narcotic Thrust saw even greater success when their single "I Like It" broke into the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 83 and reached No. 9 in the UK Singles Chart.
The band's third single in 2005, called "When the Dawn Breaks", featured Gary Clark (vocalist from the Scottish band Danny Wilson) on vocals. In 2006, Narcotic Thrust released their fourth single, "Waiting for You" again featuring the vocals of Yvonne John Lewis.
