Body Count - Raining In Blood / Postmortem 2017 Lyrics
[Interviewer:]
Ice! Explain Body Count.
[Ice-T:]
Body Count is a band I put together just to let one of my best friends Ernie C play his guitar. He's always been playing guitar, we all went to Crenshaw High School together in South Central Los Angeles. And I had the idea of let's make a metal band, let's make a rock band, 'cause I had been to Europe and I noticed that the kids would mosh off of hip-hop. So we put the band together and I used the three bands that were my favourites at the time to set the tone. We used the impending doom of a group like Black Sabbath, who pretty much invented metal; the punk sensibility of somebody like Suicidal, who basically put that gangbanger style from Venice, California into the game; and the speed and the precision of Slayer, one of my favourite groups and always will be.
Trapped in purgatory
A lifeless object, alive
Awaiting reprisal
Death will be their acquisition
The sky is turning red
Return to power draws near
Fall into me, the sky's crimson tears
Abolish the rules made of stone
Betrayed by many, now ornaments bleeding above
Awaiting the hour of reprisal
Your time slips away
Raining blood
From a lacerated sky
Bleeding its horror
Creating my structure I now reign in blood
My sinful glare at nothing holds thoughts of death behind it
Skeletons in my mind commence tearing at my sanity
Vessels in my brain carry death until my birth
Come and die with me forever
Share insanity
Do you want to die?
The waves of blood are rushing near, pounding at the walls of lies
Turning off my sanity, reaching back into my mind
Non-rising body from the grave showing new reality
What I am, what I want, I'm only after death

This does more positive for race relations than any politician could accomplish. I love Ice-T.

Like it and sounds great but don't Butcher the Lyrics! Show a little Respect to that at least. Ice Man always talks about Respect well WTF?
Oh man, why did i just saw this now...so GREAT!!! Super Awesome 👍🏼👏🏼🍻
Excuse me.
That's fake
Not that i Need no ExpLanation
nobody forgot, Ice-T did a colab with them on the Judgement Night soundtrack!
I was sceptical, but wow, great version.
immeasurably good!!
FANTASTIC ICE T! \M/
holly shit!! \m/ holly shit!! \m/ yeahhhhh!!!
T'is The Metal that binds us all!
I wish Mike Tyson did the last part. That might get Ice T into the Rock and roll hall of fame....if hes not in there already
Muy bueno
My local rock stations promos run something like "Join us Friday night for the best in rock, punk, heavy metal, and old school hip hop." I don't know a single metal head that won't throw down with Ice T. \m/ Someone nominate him for a Nobel Peace Prize.
That mood was just a little bit different in the studio that day...
Amazing
Fucking wow .. great cover
they were influenced by black sabbath slayer and suicidal tendencies . how can this band go wrong?
Yeah man Ice-T or Body Count, are some badass, well-rounded musicians. I bet, if they got the notion to do it, could cover Hank Williams Jr. and sound fucking amazing covering him.
ебать им попотеть пришлось!
Law & Order: UVE
Damn!... THIS...WAS....FUCKING....AWESOME.....
I was skeptical about the band. But after hearing this cover.. fuck yea I love it.
2.2k that gave a thumbs down can eat a dick!
men ese ritmo
Death will be their aquittence*
We need a Slayer cover album from Body Count.
Them man are CRUSHING this tune 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
That was... SO GOOD!
Ice and Body Count do this better than Slayer, never thought id ever say that but the proofs in the pudding, absolute crystal clear flawless execution of a song id say cannot be covered i was wrong wrong A plus aint a good enough grade to give here awesome thank you Crenshaw and Ernie C.
Killer version. They did a great cover.
I like Slayer. I like Body Count. Yet somehow this was better than I expected.
época otima
Лучший кавер на слэйеровские вещи!!!Айс-Ти крут!!!
*Да вообще банда зачетная!*
They messed up the main riff and played it different from the original, besides that, good cover
C o v e r.! =C o p y
awesome
Black Metal 🤘🏿 🤣
Damn! This fucking rules! I love Slayer, Ice T and Body Count!
Skitbra Ice-T! Greetings from Sweden.
Judas priest are the metal gods not black sabbath
Awesome cover 🤘
Nearly 30yrs BODYMOTHERFUCKINCOUNT !!! OG thrash.
Oh shit 😄
Plot twist: Ice-T is a better Tom Araya than the actual Tom Araya
Pretty fuckin great
Always thought Ice T was "just another rapper". Then THIS video dropped on me. I was glued to the edge of my seat, diggin' the metal. Had no freakin' CLUE! Instant fan. Went out a bought a Body Count world tour tee shirt! Willie is a gas. Imagine bumping into him at a coffee shop. "What do you do for work"? "I'm a lead guitarist in a heavy metal band", would NOT be the answer I was expecting!
This is great
How about doing something original, he can't, copy cat bitch.
Nailed it!! 🤘⚔️
Fuck yeah BODY COUNT BADASS!!!
BODY COUNT FUCKING BADASSS!!;
daft punk Giorgio Moroder intro
"Gangbanger style" ... umnm are you sure its not headbeanger?
Metal knows no race , no creed, no social status. It eats you alive and spits you out, a metalhead...
Best said I've ever heard
@frank bublitz mad love for these guys
@Andrew Rentuaya blew me away first time I ever saw 'em. Fan for life.
@frank bublitz wish they come to philippines..
That was a good fucking cover.
Body Count, MUTHA FUCKAAAH!
This is effin awesome!!
I remember when Ice-T and slayer did a song together on the Judgment Night soundtrack way back in early to mid 90's. All of the songs were rap and metal mixes with famous groups.
I call appropriation 😂😂😂😂
O cover mais lindo que vi na minha vida!
Great , Greta, Best. So Great. The Best Hip Hop on The Best Band of Thrash Metal Body Count and Slayer.
I hate this guys voice even when he talks sounds like a ignorant bitch just like ice cube why cant they just go away
Slaytanic recording.
Snowflakes beware, Slayer & Body Count fills the air.
ALWAYS A FAN OF BODY COUNT. Always remember hip hop metal and hardcore punk respected each other no segregation on our people
Thrash metal sucks ass.
Just now seeing this?? Wtf.. it's actually better than Slayer! haha
Been a big Body Count fan since day 1. All I can say is , man they really nailed this one. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
When the brothers do Slayer better than Slayer! Hells to the yes
What??!! Never, imitated but never duplicated, they did nail it tho but come on man
Fucking awesome
wah mantab bang
Why does Ice T’s voice remind me of James Hetfeild a little bit? Might be because of my headphones but when he first started on Raining Blood I wasn’t expecting this.
I never realized I needed to hear T cover this until now.
i respect ice-t and body count
Suicidal Tendencies weren't punk...they are thrash metal. Any true metal head and punker knows that!
They did a great job.
Slayed it!!
A whole new meaning to Blackened Thrash. Although it's thrash metal but i'm sure you guys get the joke
Wrong lyrics
it s raining blood
Acquisition? It's acquiescence.
It's ammunition
@Daniel Treadwell nope.
glorious
2.1K people ain't metal.
the looks on the drummer's face and the intensity of the singer during Postmortem....That is exactly what SLAYER does to you!! Undeniable every time you hear it.
\m/ He'll yeah!
"Raining in blood".????? wtf...its Raining Blood
The best Slayer cover ever
Ernie C is a crossover thrash/punk legend \m/
Supremo!
unexpected metal greatness, saw them live at wacken this year \m/
´ IIIICE !!!!! Explain how a bunch of bros are able to spontaneously plug in in the studio and play Slayer songs much more aggressively/convincingly than the latter have for the last couple years ? `
I showed this to my ex when we were still dating and it completely blew her mind that Ice T was a metalhead and had a band
So cool!
