History & Biography
The groove deathcore band was founded in 2015. The debut album arrived two years later. The group opened for Vader and Immolation in 2017. The band also opened for Dark Tranquillity and Equilibrium. Female Fronted Metal Night billed the band in 2018. Then there was Alt Metal Foundry and Metal For Kids in 2019. Dark Mother moved to Time To Kill Records. Andrea De Carolis was new on drums. The band was on the road with Infected Rain in 2022.

5rand signed with Art Gates Records and was releasing an upcoming album in 2025. A song and video called The Nihilist, featuring Milo from Fear Factory, was available first. Aceyguns was on bass. Session player David Folchitto was helping on drums for gigs. The band also offered a video for the song Bloodlife. This was followed by a video for the song Ordhalia. There was a video for the song Double Bind in 2026. It was written and performed by Julia Elenoir, a psychologist, psychotherapist and band member of course.

The band’s name was reportedly inspired by a chance encounter with a shaman and a South African 5 Rand coin.
