Body Count ft Ice-T review – an explosive love letter to heavy metal
The seven-piece’s first London show in six years sees them tear through tributes to Slayer and the Exploited, while Ice-T’s son and daughter join him on stage
Tonight, however, the prevailing emotion isn’t the anger that burst from that signature song; Body Count’s first London show in six years is more instantly a love letter to heavy music. After the seven-piece – long Ice’s main career focus, beyond even his solo and film work – bound out with Body Count’s in the House, they tear through a medley of songs by extreme metal antagonists Slayer. Body Count’s crossover thrash incites a maelstrom of mosh-pits and walls of death throughout these 90 minutes, Kentish Town proving so rapt that even as-yet-unreleased cut The Purge gets the masses moving.
