Swampblood is an LP released on September 18, 2007, by Th' Legendary Shack Shakers.
Andrew Gilstrap of popmatters.com rated the album at 7/10, commenting "Swampblood finds the band in something of a high-octane back-to-basics blues mode". Embo Blake of HybridMagazine noted that the band, in this album, "maintain[ed] their distinctive sound and superb musical quality". And Keith Carman, writing in Fast Forward Weekly (of Calgary), considered "Swampblood is as weird as it is wicked, as slick as it is sinister and sensational".
Swampblood is the third and final installment of "Southern Gothic" rock band Th' Legendary Shack Shakers' "Tentshow Trilogy", which began with 2004's Believe, and continued with 2006's Pandelirium. Believe's subject matter was that of a tent revival, and Pandelirium's was that of a circus sideshow. The tent theme surrounding Swampblood is that of a graveside funeral service.
