The Laws of Scourge & Blessed Are The Sick

Post by Those Insane Gods »

I know this one might be a little far-fetched. But has anyone noticed the similarities between these two albums in both song writing, sound, image, year of release etc?

David and Trey was fans of Sarcófago back then, I have a Sarcófago album with a picture of David and Trey holding up a Sarcófago t-shirt. David is wearing a inverted Sarcófago shirt in this picture:

They have they same kind of outfit but Sarcófago is a very mediocre bands IMO. They play bad, the production is boring and the lyrics are lame.

There is definitely no comparison between Sarcófago and Morbid Angel quality wise. But I just found it funny. Both albums got released in 1991, both was the first album for each band to mix very slow tempos with really fast stuff, both have a classical influence, both have a very similar drum sound etc.

I love Sarcofago, but I don't think The Laws of Scourge sounds like Morbid Angel at all.



I much prefer I.N.R.I. anyway, that album is raw as fucking fuck. :bang: :bang:

I overlooked this band, like many more South American bands. Probably great atmosphere but sloppy playing.



Sarcofago used to jam with the Sepultura boys as kids, lateron they got deviant.

I don't like the naive childish imagery of bands like Sarcófago and other early brazilian bands
