Suicidal Tendencies vs. Body Count: Institutionalized

Manslaughter, the first album from Body Count in eight years which was just released comes including a nice surprise. Mid-way through the album there is a bizarre but very much enjoyable modernized version of Suicidal Tendencies’ classic 1983 track Institutionalized. Ice-T updates the song’s lyrics to meet current standards which Mike Muir and Suicidal Tendencies would have never thought about back then, like endless X-Box playing and trouble logging into your email.




The original classic came with a great music video that features Slayer’s Tom Araya and actors Jack Nance and Mary Woronov. It's out of the band’s eponymous debut album, a crossover thrash classic.

Manslaughter is out now on Sumerian Records
