Matriarchs is an American hybrid metallic hardcore band, formed originally in Los Angeles CA in 2014. Starting out as studio project by founding member Ben Levi, Matriarchs has established themselves as recognizable name in the metal/hardcore community.

Drawing inspiration for their affinity for modern European Beat Down and 90s New York metallic hardcore, Matriarchs assembled a team of veteran metal and hardcore musicians to release their first studio release, „Scandalous Jointz“ on Eulogy Records in 2015. Produced by Nick Jett of Terror, and Mastered by Matt Hyde, (Lionheart, Hatebreed, Deftones), the sonic ferocity and energizing success of „Scandalous Jointz“ immediately brought them to the national touring level and ultimately sharing the stage with such acts as Soulfly, Harm’s Way, Disgrace, Bane, Backtrack, Sworn Enemy and Vision Of Disorder.
