Limited edition of 200 units. Noisy Plastics Records and Backbite Records are releasing a limited vinyl repress of the 2020 Body Count album "Carnivore". Like the previous album, the seventh studio album by the rap-metal band fronted by Ice-T is much heavier musically than their early records and is packed with Slayer-like guitar riffs. When it comes to lyrics, provocation and politically incorrect remarks are always on the agenda. But on this album, Ice-T is far more explicit and angry, covering a wide range of topics like black-on-black crime, police violence, gang culture etc. That's how Body Count have always been and that's unlikely to change. To top it all off, the album features lots of special guests such as Riley Gale (Power Trip R.I.P.), Jamey Jasta (Hatebreed) and Amy Lee (Evanescence), who can be heard on one of the album's highlight tracks, "When I'm Gone".

Limited edition of 200 units. Noisy Plastics Records and Backbite Records are releasing a limited vinyl repress of the 2017 Body Count album "Bloodlust". On their sixth studio album, Ice-T's Body Count continue to celebrate their explosive mix of gangster rap and metal guitars. A style that they have refined technically over the years and has now reached a peak of heaviness. With the cover of "Raining Blood/Postmortem" from Slayer, even the last of the skeptics could give it a massive shout-out. In the game since 1987, Ice-T is an absolute institution when it comes to lyrics and performance. On Bloodlust he shouts like never before, and there are plenty of reasons for this considering the content of the lyrics. Body Count have always been political and critical, but current events have left little room for their usual self-irony on this album. As it is expected from a band like Body Count, the album features lots of special guests. You can hear Randy Blythe (Lamb of God), Max Cavalera (Soulfly) and the guitar solo on "Civil War" comes from Megadeth's Dave Mustaine!

Aufgenommen zwischen November 2019 und April 2020 in den Venteværelse/Vaterland und Swerve City Studios, im Anschluss gemischt und gemastert von Ruben Willem in den Caliban Studios, ist Glacier Tongue - das zweite Album des Osloer Noise-Rock/Sludge-Metal-Trios und ihr erstes für Fysisk Format/Tiger Diger - Realitätscheck und Weckruf zugleich und dem Wesen nach politischer als noch der hochgelobte Vorgänger An Asphyxiating Embrace von 2018. Inspiriert von Bands und Künstlern wie Eyehategod, Helmet, Seigmen, Sepultura, Neurosis, Darkthrone und Arthur Schoupenhauer, schert sich die im Herbst 2012 gegründete Band aus Freunden auch auf dem neuen Album wenig um vermeintliche Genregrenzen und agiert mit gewohnt dystopischer Härte und Ehrlichkeit.Live hat sich die Band schon die Bühne geteilt mit u.a. Today is the Day (US), Grime (I), Timeworn (N), The Mansters (N ) und Dødsdømt (N).Aquamarinfarbenes Vinyl mit glänzendem Gatefold-Cover.A-Seite1. Nixonian Echoes2. Winning Days3.
