5RAND is a modern metal band from Rome, Italy, known for blending the raw aggression of deathcore with the emotional depth of melodic death metal. With their crushing riffs, cinematic atmospheres and the fierce duality of clean and growl vocals delivered by frontwoman Julia Elenoir, 5RAND has carved out a unique space in the contemporary metal scene.
Since the release of their debut album Sacred/Scared in 2017, followed by the acclaimed Dark Mother in 2019, the band has built a solid international fanbase through relentless touring and high-energy live performances. They've shared stages across Europe with legends like Dark Tranquillity, Vader, Immolation, Butcher Babies, and Infected Rain, earning praise for their intensity and musical evolution.
2023 marked the arrival of bassist Acey Guns, bringing a renewed energy to the band’s dynamic. In 2025, 5RAND is poised to release their third and most ambitious album yet, recorded at Bloom Recording Studios and mastered by the legendary Jens Bogren. Featuring a highly anticipated collaboration with the new Fear Factory vocalist, the album explores themes of identity, dissociation, and emotional transformation through a darker and more mature sound.
More than a band, 5RAND is a creative force that bridges music and visual art, with members contributing to artwork, limited edition merch and a growing online community of devoted fans. Whether on stage, in the studio, or through hand-drawn pieces, 5RAND continues to grow its legacy with passion, authenticity, and a deep connection to the metal community.
