MASTIV is a Behemoth that refuses to die—Unrelenting, Uncompromising, and Built for Impact.
Forged in 2008 by Vocalist Steve Thiriot and Guitarist Chris Whitney, the band took its name from the Mastiff: overpowering, steadfast, impossible to move. That’s the ethos—massive sound, iron will, and a live show that feels less like a set and more like a trial by fire.
Musically, MASTIV fuses precision and punishment: the groove and venom of Lamb of God, the industrial steel of Fear Factory, and the hardcore bite of Hatebreed, sharpened by the left-field technicality of Blotted Science and Psyopus.
But influence is only the spark—Mastiv’s songs are built to stand on their own spine.
Lyrically, the band deals in perseverance, loyalty, and the discipline to turn rage into strength. Hand/Fist remains the banner track—unpredictable, hammer-tight, definitive. Embrace Brutality is the creed: whatever you choose to do in life, be brutal at it.
And on the newest single, Conquering Warlord, Mastiv imagines the apocalypse not as an ending but as a takeover.
Onstage, Mastiv is intensity incarnate. Front row feels like survival; the pit leaves scars and converts. With new music dropping regularly, the mandate is simple: no compromise, no surrender—only forward motion.
This is Mastiv — Elegant Brutality. Engineered to Destroy.
