Marking their first new music since their 2020 Grammy-winning single “Bum-Rush,” Body Count has unleashed the bone-crushing “Psychopath” featuring Fit for An Autopsy vocalist Joe Bad. The track also acts as the first preview of the group’s forthcoming full-length album, Merciless.
Equipped with a rapid-fire lyric video showcasing a red-string crime board, Ice-T and co. spews a series of vicious lyrics, including “Last night/They found three slain/I torture and kill and murder at will” across punishing instrumentation. Meanwhile, as FFAA leader joins the onslaught, he adds in a subtle but apt namedrop for his main project, growling, “Just another motherfucker/Fit for an autopsy.”
Excited for their forthcoming tour, the group shares on Instagram, “We’re storming through the UK & EU on THE MERCILESS TOUR starting next month with special guests Slope on select dates!”
The Merciless Tour will officially launch on June 5 at the Mystic Festival in Gdansk, Poland. The 20-show run overseas will conclude on July 2 in Glasglow, UK, before the group returns Stateside for Louder Than Life and Aftershock later this year.
