Ra

Ra is an American alternative metal band from Los Angeles, California, taking their name from the Egyptian sun god. The band has been around since the 1990s, but did not actually evolve into its current form until 2002. Their music was described as "exotic not familiar, heavy not funky, direct not sophisticated, sensual not soulful, unrelenting not cathartic."

The are also known for their hits "The Only One", "Skorn", and "Violator".

The band released their first full-length album entitled From One in October 2002, containing songs from their demo. Ra released their second album, Duality, that featured a new side of the band, portraying a duality between fear and love. The tracks are divided into two sections, each preluded by a short intro. Before the CD's release, drummer Skoota Warner left the band and did not accompany them on their April-May 2005 tour. The replacement drummer is current band member Andy Ryan. To date the band has sold around 350,000 albums in North America.
