NOVA COLLECTIVE: Members of BTBAM, TRIOSCAPES & HAKEN Form New Band

by Ryan Minic | Dec 5, 2016

You know we have a soft spot for anything Dan Briggs touches. Between The Buried And Me’s bassist has kept us on the edge with numerous projects over the years — Orbs and Trioscapes to name a couple — and now he’s got a new band in the works: Nova Collective.

Nova Collective features Dan with Haken guitarist Richard Henshall, former Haken keyboardist Pete Jones, and Trioscapes bandmate and drummer Matt Lynch, who also spent some time in HRVRD.

The band’s forthcoming debut album The Further Side is due out on March 10th through Metal Blade.
