Bodycount are back with a bang

The founding fathers of crossover Metal / Nu Metal / Gangsta Rap Metal / Rap Metal / manfügebeliebigesanderesattributhierein place with Manslaughter her if I counted correctly fifth album since the band's formation in 1991 to before, which shows that the gentlemen like to have time to get out of the Muse to be kissed.

And even if Mr. Ice-T so slowly but surely approaching the 60 and he is the last survivor (unfortunately in the truest sense of the word) of the original line-up, along with guitarist Ernie C. Muse has seven years after the last not bad, but unfortunately amateurish produced Murder 4 Hire again embarked vigorously.
And as usual with Body Count, it was figuratively not just a muse of delicate, subtle, delicate way, but rather an aggressive, rülpsendes, remotely feminine being.

On Manslaughter it let BC crash again not seen since their debut; an angry, noisy, but always handy-arranged Wutbrocken after another breaks out of the boxes and can not even have thoughts of rock oldies or set veterans.

At last the sound is right again, the album is raw and unpolished, yet produces punchy and rock, without losing sight absaufen Ice-T's hard-hitting lyrics acoustically. Whether it comes to freedom of speech, thoughts of suicide, alcohol and drug dependency, wives or else something goes Ice-T's texts pound just mercilessly to the twelve as the associated Mucke, and as an old fan who had the band actually already written off you do not stop being amazed.

Bodycount do what bands like Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park and countless others (also German-speaking) rockers and rappers like activities they produce absolutely authentic, unpolished rap metalcore, which can affect the aforementioned direct comparison such as thumb sucking end choirboys.

Even those who otherwise can not do anything with rap-metal, may calm risk an ear here.

5 stars for one of the most successful comebacks in rock genre for a long time.
