The Laws of Scourge is the second studio album by the Brazilian extreme metal band Sarcófago. It was on this album that the band's lyrical content shifted from Satanism to more realistic subject matter; "Midnight Queen" is about a prostitute, while "Screeches From The Silence" is about living life in a care-free manner. After the lo-fi black/thrash metal style of I.N.R.I., The Laws of Scourge marks a change in musical style, with the band playing clearer and more proficient death/thrash metal.[2] This was also the last full-length record to feature a human drummer, as from Hate onwards, the band would use a drum machine.

The Laws of Scourge — второй студийный альбом бразильской блэк/дэт/трэш-метал-группы Sarcófago. Именно на этом альбоме лирическое содержание группы перешло от сатанизма к более реалистичной тематике; «Midnight Queen» — о проститутке, «Screeches from the Silence» — о беззаботной жизни. Альбом также знаменует собой изменение музыкального стиля: группа играет более четкий, более опытный дэт-метал под влиянием трэша, в отличие от lo-fi блэк/дэт-метала, присутствующего на «I.N.R.I.». Это также была последняя полноформатная запись с участием барабанщика, так как начиная с Hate группа будет использовать драм-машину.
