History

The band was founded as Ground Zero by Thierry Bertone and Gabriele Lingua in 2005. Soon afterwards, Alessandro Blengino, Hervè De Zulian, Claudio Ravinale (Disarmonia Mundi) and Andrea Minolfi joined the band.

Ground Zero recorded the EP The Zero Hour in 2006.

In 2007, they changed their name to 5 Star Grave. The following year, they recorded and self-produced their first album, Corpse Breed Syndrome. [1]

In 2010, the band released a cover version of "Pet Sematary" by the Ramones.

In 2011, they recorded their second album, Drugstore Hell. It was mixed by Tobias Lindell and mastered by Dragan Tanaskovic at the Bohus Sound Studios in Gothenburg, Sweden. Later that year, the band was signed by Massacre Records [2] and Drugstore Hell was released on May 25, 2012.
A review stated that the album combines "extreme vocal aggression with catchy light-hearted melodies, a pounding rhythm section mixed with industrial keyboards and a sharp guitar work, all merged together in a boiling high-octane cauldron". [3]

In September 2017, the band released The Red Room for Sliptrick Records.
