Formed in 1980, this dedicated hard rock band from the Boston area has had
numerous accomplishments. Most notably, they have sold over 100,000 albums
worldwide.
A Brief History:
In 1982, “Mass” signed there first record deal with A&M records and recorded
what was to be there first major release. The album was recorded at Criteria
Studios in Florida with legendary producer Tom Allom. The album was never
released due to the strained relationship between A&M and the band’s current
manager. The band spent the next 2 ½ years in court to finally rid themselves
from current management via bankruptcy.
Once free from any legal obligations the band returned to the studio in 1984 to
release “Mass” their first self titled EP with producer Jon Mathias. It was
recorded at The Record Plant in New York City. The EP sold over 10,000 copies in
the Boston area alone, and was enough to get record companies’ attention once
again.
In 1985, the band was signed to RCA records and released their first major label
debut, “New Birth”, produced by Tony Platt. The 45 single, “Do You Love Me”, was
number one for over six weeks at many radio stations along the east coast. The
video for that single was also in rotation on MTV and hit Billboard’s charts.
In 1987, “Mass” was signed to Enigma records and released their third album/CD,
“Take You Home”, produced by John Rollo and “Mass”. This record/CD sold tens of
thousands in the United States as well as England, Japan, and other countries
around the world.
In 1988, “Mass” released their fourth record/CD,” “Voices in the Night”, on
Enigma records. Michael Sweet of the band “Stryper” was the producer. Again,
this CD sold well all over the world. Songs such as “Reach for the Sky”, “Turn
it All Around”, and “Voices in the Night” were available as CD singles. Songs
from this CD also appeared on various compilation CD’s. That same year, “Mass”
was nominated for ‘Best Heavy Metal Act’ at the Boston Music Awards.
Since “Voices in the Night”, Mass has continued to write and record powerfully
impressive songs which have appeared on local compilation CD’s as well as
receiving national air play.
In the Spring of 2000, Mass released a new CD titled “Mass Best Ones” on fore
reel Records. This compilation CD contained two new tracks titled “Seven Days”
and “Who Am I” which have received much local airplay.
In 2002, Mass returned to the studio once again with Stryper’s Michael Sweet to
record two new songs titled “It’s You” and “Empty Soul”.
Mass continues to have a strong following all over the United States and around
the world. “Mass’” style continues to be driving hard rock with an edge and
rocking melodies!

Stryper, Cheap Trick, Girlschool, Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush, Hurricane,
