From the depths of Charlotte, NC, a storm was born in 2018.
MAFIA emerged as more than a band—it became a vessel of chaos, a voice from the shadows, and a force forged to break the boundaries of death metal. With every note, the group channels darkness into sound, summoning a relentless wall of power that is both brutal and unyielding.
In 2020, MAFIA released their debut album, “Burn the Order”, a violent statement of intent that introduced their ferocity to the metal underground. The record, produced by M Productions, captured the raw energy that would become the foundation of the band’s identity.
Through evolution and change, MAFIA has solidified into its most powerful form, standing today with:
Blake Osborne – Vocals
Rubén Granadillo – Guitar
Gary Wright – Guitar
Matthew Rega – Bass
Justin Hilts – Drums
Singles such as “Paradox,” “To Summon Nibiru,” and “Eyes of the Branded Raven” revealed the band’s sharpened vision, paving the way for their upcoming album, “Fallen Forever” (release date: June 7, 2025). This second full-length promises to expand their sonic assault with deeper atmospheres, crushing heaviness, and an uncompromising dedication to their craft.
MAFIA has taken their chaos to the stage alongside international acts such as NERVOSA,CRYPTA,DEICIDE,D.R.I.,THALL,ETC, leaving venues in ruin with their intensity. Each live performance is an unrelenting experience—precise, savage, and immersive.
More than just a band, MAFIA is a brotherhood. It is a movement born from defiance, sharpened by chaos, and driven by the unbreakable spirit of death metal. With Fallen Forever, the band stands ready to carve its name deeper into the legacy of extreme music.
MAFIA is Carolina Death Metal. Enter the darkness.
