“Seven songs ranging from pop fueled rave ups to noise caked rawk…Pitchfork will be eatin’ em up soon enough.”
– TERMINAL BOREDOM
“Filled with hooks that harness the urgency of a caged tiger, Red Mass throws in hints of spaced-out psychedelia for good measure. Like any good party, the EP packs a punch and is memorable.”
– POP MATTERS (UK)
“Wild, weird and wacky. Wow.”- MAXIMUM ROCK ‘N’ ROLL
“driving, snotty psych-punk sound ... with choruses that could give Jay Reatard a run for his money.” – MIRROR
“Red Mass are straight from the garage: we're talking The Sonics, The Damned, MC5.” - SOUND BITES

On top of working inhuman office hours, Semprini Records & Signed By Force label owner, Ramachandra Borcar recently completed the original score to Patrick Demers’ visually stunning psychological thriller ‘Jaloux’ (English title ‘Suspicions’) and the film sees its North American debut during this year’s Toronto International Film Fest. The European debut took place in July as part of the prestigious Karlovy Vary Film Festival in the Czech Republic and has already gained international praise.
