Vae Solis is the debut album by Scorn, originally released in 1992 on Earache in the UK, and Relativity in the United States. It features the same musician lineup as Side A of Napalm Death's Scum.

It has been said that the cover features a collage of two medical photographs superimposed. One photo is an open throat, probably diseased, while the other is a cancerous cell, taken with microscope.[2]

The album is often associated with industrial and experimental music.[3]

A music video was made for Lick Forever Dog.[4]
