Red Mass

Red Mass is a gathering of artists, musicians and agent provocateurs from around the globe. Created by Roy Vucino as part of the 'Free Creative Enterprise' TA DA arts collective, its goal is to create punk music and art, in various mediums while incorporating techniques of automatic creation, chaos magic and liberation through art. To do so the Mass forgoes any allegiance to a specific scene, genre or sound. This method of working outside of the classic band format allows the Mass to work with as many international collaborators as it likes regardless of their experience, style or background. The present core of 'Red Mass' is comprised of Roy Vucino and partner Hannah Lewis. Eager to explore new soundscapes and to collaborate with musicians all over the world, the band has amassed more than 100 participating artists and musicians in its ranks. Collaborations with some of our idols, our friends, our family members and with strangers who wanna create something subversive.

“Kilrush Drive” was recorded by Mingo L'indien (Les Georges Leningrad/Ellemetue) and mixed by Sebastien Perry. There are 9 new tracks and 2 older tracks the band chose to rework at Breakglass Studios with Dave Smith and Jace Lasek (Besnard Lakes). Producer/musician Martin Bisi (Sonic Youth, Iggy Pop & Herbie Hancock) also contributed to a song.

With this release Red Mass has refined its post punk sound, incorporating pop hooks, surreal politics and unsettling noise tonalities over a bed of dark electro, punk and hip hop beats.
