Body Count

Nu slechts € 8,99 Divorced from the controversy that surrounded its release, Body Count's self-titled debut is a surprisingly tepid affair. Apart from the previously released ''Body Count'' (which appeared on Ice-T's 1991 album O.G. Original Gangster), the record is devoid of serious commentary, trading intelligence for a lurid comic book depiction of sex, violence, and ''Voodoo.'' All of Ice-T's half-sung/half-shouted lyrics fall far short of the standard he established on his hip-hop albums. The controversial ''Cop Killer'' -- which is nothing more than a standard thrash metal chant -- stands out because it is one of the few tracks that doesn't rely on garish, cartoonish imagery. There's the saga of ''Evil Dick,'' which tells Ice-T to not ''sleep alone.'' There's ''KKK Bitch,'' where he crashes a Ku Klux Klan meeting and screws the grand dragon's daughter. There's ''Voodoo,'' where a witch doctor cripples our hero with a voodoo doll. There's ''Mama's Gotta Die Tonight,'' where Ice-T offs his mother cause she's racist. By the time the band works around to the power ballad ''The Winner Loses'' and Ice-T is crooning, ''My friend's addicted to cocaine,'' it's unclear whether the record is a parody or a flawed stab at arena metal. Either way, Body Count is a humorous curio from the early '90s that will appeal either to metalheads or listeners with a twisted sense of humor. [After ''Cop Killer'' was pulled from the album, it was replaced with a bland version of Ice-T's rap classic ''The Iceberg'' recorded with Jello Biafra.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
