This week we’re tying up some loose ends by discussing Merciless, the latest album by Body Count. Led by the legendary Ice-T and high school friend Ernie C, Body Count is back with another intensely brutal thrash album. After winning a Grammy for 2020’s Carnivore, Merciless shows the band as heavy and charming as ever. Plus we got some guests on here, including Cannibal Corpse’s Corpsegrinder, Max Cavalera, and believe or not, David Gilmour. Check out our previous episodes on Carnivore and Body Count’s full discography (episode 9).

Episode 9: Body Count
If you’re wondering why in God’s name we would possibly be covering this band so early in our podcasting career, it’s because this is the first artist requested by a listener. Alex was ecstatic about it. Mike was not.
Closing song: “No Lives Matter” from Bloodlust (2017)
