Cadê as Armas? (Portuguese for Where Are the Weapons?) is the debut album by Brazilian post-punk band Mercenárias. It was released in 1986 via famous independent record label Baratos Afins and re-released in CD form in 1995, with three live bonus tracks recorded in 1988, during a show that celebrated the 10-year anniversary of Baratos Afins.
João Gordo (of Ratos de Porão fame) and Edgard Scandurra (formerly a member of Mercenárias, and more well known for his work with Ultraje a Rigor and Ira!) provide backing vocals in the track "Santa Igreja".
A music video was made for the track "Pânico", being the Mercenárias' only one.[1]
An old drawing of the Argentinian coat of arms is depicted in the album's cover.
