The Frogs is the debut album by American rock band the Frogs. It was originally released in limited quantities (only 1010 LP copies),^[1] and was re-released on CD by Moikai Records in 1999.^[2] The album was self-produced on 8-track and took a long time to record because of the engineer's limited availability. After this album the Frogs would release recordings made at home. This debut gave listeners a mere taste of the black humor that was to follow on their second album. In 2022, an "addition" version was released onto streaming services.
