"King Swamp" is the self-titled debut album of the British rock band King Swamp. Originally released in May of 1989, the album was well-received by critics. But, its failure to peak even in the top-150 on the Billboard 200 proved to be a bad omen. When their sophomore album failed to chart anywhere in the U.S. or the U.K., the band split up.
