Originally released on RCA Records in 1985, Mass's album "New Birth" quickly became a sought-after gem within the melodic heavy metal community. Now, celebrating its 40th anniversary, Retroactive Records proudly presents the definitive 2025 reissue of this classic album.
This officially licensed and band-supported deluxe edition is meticulously remastered by the renowned Rob Colwell (Stryper, Helstar, Barren Cross), delivering pristine audio clarity and powerful sound dynamics. Presented in a collector's edition jewel case wrapped in a special cardboard collector’s sleeve (O-ring), this reissue is enhanced with a stunning 16-page insert filled with a massive photo collage of Mass rarities and complete lyrics.
Adding further value for collectors, each CD includes a limited edition band collector card, exclusively available with this release. Vocalist Louis St. August has also provided a special 2025 write-up, personally addressing longtime fans and newcomers alike, offering insights and reflections on this significant anniversary.
Additionally, Mass fans will be delighted by the inclusion of the bonus track "Endless Thoughts," specially provided by the band for this release.
"New Birth" has long been admired for blending melodic hard rock sensibilities with robust heavy metal elements, earning comparisons to bands such as Stryper, Barren Cross, and Quiet Riot. From the MTV-featured single "Do You Love Me" to harder-hitting tracks like the powerful title track, "Too Far Gone," and "Crying Alone," the album showcases Mass’s skillful musicianship, soaring vocals, and catchy hooks that resonate deeply with metal enthusiasts.
This exclusive 40th Anniversary Edition is strictly limited to just 500 CDs. Secure your piece of heavy metal history with Mass's timeless classic, fully restored and revitalized for 2025.
