Body Count's self-titled debut album was released on Sire Records in 1992, and garnered much attention due to a controversy around the song "Cop Killer".

Album Review
Body Count's latest album 'Merciless' is a relentless onslaught of heavy metal fury that showcases the band at the top of their game. From the opening title track, the album grabs you by the throat and never lets go, delivering a powerful and aggressive sound that is sure to please fans old and new. The production quality is top-notch, with each instrument cutting through the mix with precision and clarity. Standout tracks include the blistering 'Merciless' with its crushing riffs and intense vocals, as well as the thrashy 'Ruthless' and the groove-laden 'Unstoppable'. 'Merciless' fits perfectly in Body Count's career, building upon their legacy of blending metal and hardcore punk in a way that is both politically charged and musically satisfying.
