    Adios Mafia is a ferocious rock n’ roll band emerging from the forgotten enclave of Woodlawn in the Bronx, NYC, bordering the drinking capitol of Yonkers. There, 4 friends formed a musical gang, a brotherhood, a mafia, tired of PC-friendly rock music lacking the aggression and ingenuity the genre once had. Striking back with intensity and determination, their unapologetic persona has horrified a few, but has invigorated many more. While incorporating influences that range from the Ramones to Guns n’ Roses to the Clash to Johnny Cash to Run DMC, they’ve blistered crowds in the Tri-state Area since their inception in July 2007.

    "Hot-Blooded American Awesome" is their debut album. Clocking 13 tracks at 33 minutes, these guys aren't here to mince words or waste your time. Join them on a journey of twisted romance ("She Only Wants Me", "Please, Sweetheart", "Chick That's Gonna Stab Me") and rowdy rebellion ("Mean n' Dirty", 'Cause I'm a Man", "Dirty Bomb"), that refuses to conform or apologize in the quest for awesome. Original, fast, quirky, and memorable.

    Welcome to the Mafia.

    Item comes with cover and additional art not available on digital download. Maybe we'll throw something extra in for awesome measure...

    “Not since the Ramones have I seen a band with a pure, badass American rock presence. Aside from this fact they also display a unique mixture of Punk Rock, Funk and Metal that melds together creating a sort of new kind of music that keeps true to its influences. In a time and age when most new music is presented in some formulaic package, The Mafia simply comes out and does what any band should do when performing or making music, Rock your ass off!... ”
    Eric Gonzalez - Ratt Fink Magazine

    “Apparently Adios Mafia believes we’ve forgotten what rock is supposed to sound like. Upon listening to a few of their tracks - spirited, loud, high energy - we sincerely appreciate the reminder.”
    Lindsey Darden - Beatcrave.com

lyrics

V1
I was given this world, I didn't make it
Corrupted by this crap i cant take it
Enough to lose control and go apeshit
Standing all alone in the snake pit
Can't find reality in the fakeness
Give ya heart to a girl, then she breaks it
Tryin to keep up with people and places
Up against the devil, holdin 4 aces
But that don't make a damn bit of difference
I was raised to go the whole distance

V2
Why can't it be live and let live?
Why's it always cost more than I can give?
And who the hell are you to say my brain is sick?
A man is more than just havin balls and a dick
(Just 'cause you pour syrup on ya face
Don't make ya head a stack of pancakes)
Now I fight for what I love and hate
Willin to die if that's the case
And if a broad leaves me, that just fate
Sick and tired of lying in waste
Times too short, I'm gettin a taste
Before I kill myself and its too late
Grab my old lady by the waist
And toss a torch in the force of this police state
The odds don't make a damn bit of difference
I was raised to go the whole distance

Chorus
Sometimes I start a fight
Sometimes I do nothin but drink
Sometimes I act all wrong
sayin what i feel cause I just don't think
Sometimes I find myself crying
Sometimes I got nothin but love
But everyday when I wake up, wake up
I flat out refuse to give up.
