Los Angeles rockers Blacklist Union return with their latest single, Mississippi Moonhound, a fierce track that blends classic alternative rock influences with a fresh edge.
Blacklist Union – Mississippi Moonhound
Based in Los Angeles, Blacklist Union is a dynamic hard rock band celebrated for their electrifying live performances and a distinctive blend of influences from Stone Temple Pilots, Guns N’ Roses, Malfunkshun, The Cult, and Mother Love Bone, creating a sound that feels both familiar and uniquely their own.
A major milestone for Blacklist Union came in November last year when they toured with punk legends Dead Boys, followed by a December run alongside Josey Scott, former frontman of the iconic nu-metal band Saliva, bringing their signature intensity to Tennessee, Colorado, and California.
Following the strong response to their 2024 singles Horns & Halos and Hey Mr Superstar, Blacklist Union returns with Mississippi Moonhound. This track powerfully conveys the struggle of being haunted by the past while yearning into the night for something beyond.
Right from the start, Mississippi Moonhound showcases a strong ’90s alt-rock influence, especially reminiscent of Stone Temple Pilots’ Core album, both in its instrumentation and vocals, with sharp, raw guitar riffs and powerful drums. Yet it’s the soaring, high-pitched vocals in the chorus that give the song its own distinctive energy and fresh vibe.
“Mississippi Moonhound is a direct and unfiltered alt-rock track, no gimmicks, no polish, just a raw rock anthem made for losing yourself and headbanging all the way through.”
