The Laws of Scourge is the third LP from the Brazilian black metal/death metal band Sarcófago. This is when the band's satanic lyrics and imagery toned down to a more realistic style in writing. For example, Midnight Queen is about a prostitute, and Screeches From The Silence is about living life on the fast lane. The song lyrical content has drifted from satanic to death related. Also the genre of played as shifted from Black Metal to a more melodic Thrash Metal, and the sound quality has improved from I.N.R.I..
