Sardonic Wrath is the eleventh album by Norwegian black metal band Darkthrone.

The vinyl release of the album was limited to 2000 copies. The whole album was released on the Internet in April, 2004 which was extremely premature considering the September 6 release date. However, the final release of the album was considerably different from the Internet leak.

Oddly, the closing song, "Rawness Obsolete", is listed on many lyric sites as an instrumental. This can be attributed to the lack of any printed lyrics in the accompanying booklet, although it is quite strange, considering some vocals are easily comprehendable.

  1. "Order of the Ominous" – 2:32
  2. "Information Wants to Be Syndicated" – 3:44
  3. "Sjakk Matt Jesu Krist" – 4:04
  4. "Straightening Sharks in Heaven" – 3:27
  5. "Alle Gegen Alle" – 3:21
  6. "Man Tenker Sitt" – 3:05
  7. "Sacrificing to the God of Doubt" – 4:34
  8. "Hate is the Law" – 3:22
  9. "Rawness Obsolete" – 6:14


  • The title of the album seems to have been derived from Earth's Last Picture, a set of lyrics Garm wrote for Darkthrone off their Total Death album ("Hark! as lands tremble, and empires fall/Ye may hear us laugh with sardonic wrath")
  • Sardonic Wrath is also a term used in The Book of Satan in The Satanic Bible. ("I blast out the ghastly contents of philosophically whited sepulchers and laugh with sardonic wrath!"[1:11])
  • On the track Hate is the Law, vocals are performed by Fenriz and Apollyon.
