Release Notes:

The bitrates are low so this may not be a final master, feel free
to rip the retail if it's different.  Enjoy this explicit advance!

Rapper/actor/rock 'n' roller Ice-T is at it again on Body Count's
Murder 4 Hire (Escapi Records), set for release on August 1, 2006.
Lead guitarist Ernie C, bassist Vincent Price, drummer OT and
rhythm guitarist Bendrix hit the metal hard on 12 tracks of what
is sure to be controversial, argued over and demonized right from
the jump.

Musically, the bombast of the Murder 4 Hire metal, with all its
sweeping rock grandeur, is oftentimes offset by a total all-out
thrash breakdown. Lyrically, the songs range from political ("The
End Game"), personal ("You Don't Know Me [Pain]") and religious
("The Passion Of The Christ"), to obsession ("In My Head"),
Armageddon ("Dirty Bomb"), hate ("Lies") and "Relationships."

Obviously, Body Count, circa 2006, isn't backing down from
anybody or anything. A eulogy for fallen band member D-Roc is
also included ("D Rocs [RIP]") as is a hilarious take on
deep-south rednecks ("Down In The Bayou"). The title track is an
instant hit-man anthem. The CD closes with "Mr. C's Theme," a
hard rock instrumental.
