Prepare to immerse yourself in the electric revival of MASS' "New Birth," a melodic heavy metal gem that first hit the airwaves in 1985.
Nestled in the vast panorama of '80s rock, "New Birth" marries arena-sized anthems with a raw, urban feel, reflective of the sonic grandeur of its era. Originally created under the genius touch of Tony Platt, known for his work with giants such as AC/DC and Iron Maiden, this album carved a niche for MASS in the legacy of heavy metal. Songs like the title track “New Birth” and the evocative ballad “Crying Alone” showcase his powerful blend of melody and intensity, while the catchy single “Do You Love Me” added luster to his raw side.
The 2025 vinyl reissue is a real gold mine for collectors and aficionados. Pressed on visually striking “Strawberry Jam” vinyl and remastered by the skillful Rob Colwell, the album offers a renewed vitality and sonic clarity that honors and elevates the original tracks. Limited to just 200 copies, it's an exclusive window into the enduring spirit and influence of MASS's masterpiece.
Accompanying the heavy vinyl, a bonus track "Endless Thoughts" and a lush 12x12 insert deepen this tribute, with glimpses of singer Louis St. August weaving poignant connections to their enduring musical journey. Fortify your collection with “New Birth” – a seminal masterpiece, resurrected.
