Dark Portrait were formed in October of 2010. In May of 2012, for personal reasons, Simos left the band, leaving his place empty.. After a few months, from some really "haphazard" cicrumstances, his place was filled by a man with strong underpinnings in the Greek Underground Metal scene.
Filled with appetite for work and puzzled for this new member who came along with new ideas and energy, they start again from the very point they stopped!
Their first work in an EP entitled "Fiend Incarnate" was released on November 3rd, 2012.
Their music is Majestc Black Metal with Gothic elements. In the Greek scene, even in the Underground sector, there are one too few bands of this genre and ideology. Dark Portrait are trying to remind the people that melody and magic can grant you a journey...
In the early 2016 the band have finished to recording their first LP named ''A Harrowing Atrocity''. On December 20th the band released the first single of the upcoming album called "Ode To Scorn".
''A Harrowing Atrocity'' was released on April 15, 2016 and was recorded, mixed & mastered by Dion Christodoulatos at CFN Recordings Studio, cover by Remedy, art design by Giannhs Nakos, photoshooting by Christos Kalliris.
