Dark Princess is a Russian metal band that distinctively blends symphonic elements with heavy guitar riffs, creating a unique sound that resonates with fans of both gothic and symphonic metal. The band first emerged in the early 2000s, gaining attention in Russia's burgeoning metal scene with their theatrical performances and the powerful vocals of their lead singer, who often sings in both Russian and English, enabling them to reach a diverse audience.

Throughout their career, Dark Princess has consistently evolved, incorporating various styles into their music, as evidenced by their recent releases including "Поднимаясь в небо" (Ascending to the Sky) and "Нас нет" (We Are No More), which showcase the band's dynamic range from the grandiose to the introspective. With the 2022 remastered version of their hit "Жестокая игра" (Cruel Game), Dark Princess has demonstrated their commitment to their roots while also embracing modern production techniques. Tracks such as "Phoenix," "Not Enough," and "Without You" highlight their ability to craft hard-hitting anthems, while "Falling to Fly" and "The World I've Lost" exemplify their talent for creating rich, emotionally charged soundscapes that have cemented their standing in the international metal community.
