The debut studio album by the swamp-forged Frog Metal band Croakborn.
Forged in mud. Echoed through metal.
Croakborn is a one-man Swamp Metal project forged in collaboration with AI — merging primal riffs, human emotion, and digital decay into a mythic soundscape from the depths.
Born in the murky depths of digital decay, Screams of the Swamp is an experimental Croakborn release you won’t find anywhere else. Crafted entirely in collaboration with artificial intelligence, it blurs the line between organic chaos and synthetic design. Each track drags you deeper into the swamp’s echoing void — where machines breathe, frogs scream, and creation itself mutates.
In the drowned silence of forgotten wetlands, five beings rose from decay and despair.
Bound by rhythm, rage, and prophecy, they became Croakborn — the living echo of a dying swamp.
Each voice tells a fragment of the same story: rebellion against extinction, sung through distortion and primal groove.
Their instruments are relics; their screams, incantations.
Together, they channel the will of the mire itself — a chorus of amphibian defiance.
