Pharaoh Overlord #2 is the second album by Finnish experimental rock band Pharaoh Overlord.

It was released on CD in 2003 by No Quarter Records. It features three members of krautrock-influenced rock band Circle indulging their love for stoner rock. Like its predecessor, the album is completely instrumental and the tracks follow a basic model of repetitive riffs. However, it is a much more subdued record than Pharaoh Overlord #1 even featuring acoustic guitars in places. Only Skyline contained the heavy distortion of the first album, and became a live staple for the band, appearing on both Pharaoh Overlord's live albums, The Battle Of The Axehammer (Live) and Live In Suomi Finland.
