BLACKLIST UNION Breakin Bread With the Devil
(Blu)
The rock ‘n’ roll spirit lives on in L.A. through the much talked about Blacklist Union. Musically, the band plays melodic, riff-filled hard rock that revives memories of the classic Sunset Strip scene with a slight modern edge. While their style is nothing groundbreaking, the band does manage to keep their sound exciting and fresh. This kind of musicianship is something that is hard to find on most band’s records today. Vocalist Tony West brings in a dark, hypnotic sound similar to Michael Aston of Gene Loves Jezebel with a touch of Ozzy Osbourne’s haunting overtones. Breakin Bread With the Devil is more for the old-school hard rock purists that are seeking more song-oriented music, and those who simply want their rock back.
