Rap metal innovators Body Count, featuring hip hop icon Ice-T, have officially unveiled their first new single for four years, Psychopath. The track, another classic slice of big, fat, groove-driven metal riffs and Ice's unmistakable, provocative bars, features a guest appearance from none other than Joe Bad, frontman of New Jersey deathcore brutes Fit For An Autopsy, alongside lashings of chainsaw effects and inverted, bloodcurdling screams. Lovely stuff.

Fit For An Autopsy guitarist and metal producer extraordinaire Will Putney is also involved in the song, having lent his formidable talents from behind the mixing desk. Watch the lyric video for new Body Count single Psychopath below, and see the LA crew's full list of European and UK tour dates for this summer just below that.
