Deaf Dumb Blind is the debut studio album by Swedish rap metal band Clawfinger. It was released on 21 April 1993.

Background

The musical content is mainly metal/hard rock modernized with a few electronic elements. The vocal approach is an aggressive flux of words sung in a rap style.

The album has ten standard tracks; three bonus tracks were added to the re-release in 2004. Clawfinger also released four singles (detailed below) and three videos ("Nigger", "The Truth" and "Warfair").

The lyrics of "Catch Me" are translated from the Asta Kask song "Dom Får Aldrig Mig".
