Abstract: By analyzing the song “Cop Killer” by Ice-T’s heavy metal band Body Count, I explain how genre deviation influences uptake and can leads to less desirable forms of uptake, specifically censorship. AND By exposing panoptic terministic screens, Austin Lunn uses his black metal musical project, Panopticon, to suggest a nature alternative to the control and currency associated with American Christianity and capitalism.
