Shhh is the fifth studio album by British band Chumbawamba. It was originally written and recorded as Jesus H. Christ, an album that relied heavily on samples. The band was unable to procure rights to a number of the songs they sampled, however, and the album was largely re-worked to defend artistic intent and criticize censorship. The album sleeve artwork itself incorporated various rejection letters received by the band denying the rights to the Christ samples. Shhh is considered by many to be a "genre landmark." The album was re-released with Slap! in the compilation Shhhlap!, released by MUTT Records on July 15, 2003.
