Chicago’s all-female electric string quintet Electric 5 just dropped something absolutely wild. Their genre-bending debut? A fully live, no-backing-track cover of Metallica’s "Enter Sandman" that’ll blow your mind.
Two cellos and three violins layer together in this bold, blistering reimagining. The iconic anthem gets completely rebuilt using nothing but electric string instruments—and honestly, it’s pretty incredible.

Every single note feels deliberate. Carefully crafted to capture this rich, powerful symphonic-metal soundscape that’s totally rooted in their unique hard rock signature sound.
The music video? Pure arena rock energy—not your typical chamber music vibe at all. These five string players command the spotlight in a visual spectacle that matches the track’s raw power perfectly.
Electric 5 aren’t messing around here. Led by five absolutely fearless musicians, they’re carving out their own space with this full-throttle performance that makes one hell of a first impression.
