Upcoming Bullsh*t

Ice-T has a long and proud tradition of releasing album art that is both terrible and provocative. For example:

Ice-T - Rhyme PaysIce-T - PowerIce-T - IcebergIce T - Home InvasionIce T - Gangsta Rap
And not only has Ice-T upheld this tradition in his solo career, but he has also done so as the lead singer for Body Count:

Body Count - Body CountBody Count - Born DeadBody Count - Violent DemiseBody Count - Murder 4 Hire

So it with great pleasure that I report that the cover for Body Count’s latest, Manslaughter, is in keeping with this tradition. It looks like I made it as a joke, but, no, this is the really real album.

Body Count - Manslaughter

That is a goddamn ridiculous cover, and it makes me SO HAPPY. I know it’s weird to say “Oh that sucks but I love it,” but that’s genuinely how I feel. If Body Count’s new album cover had  really mind-blowing artwork by Dan Seagrave or Eliran Kantor or someone like that, I would be disappointed. Like I said: this is in keeping with tradition.

(Quick digression: am I the only one who thinks the third dude from the left looks like Doc Coyle?)

Manslaughter comes out June 10 on Sumerian.

I leave you with this, just because.
