The new album Fauna is OUT!

     Fauna

Since March 2022, we've strived to be the No. 1 source of all information regarding modern progressive metal's crown jewel, HAKEN! Here you can find everything in the band's nearly two decade long history from their early years to today.

You'll also be able to find artists, works and people related to the band and its members, like Novena, To-Mera and Nova Collective.

See something missing? Give us a shout!





Message from the Institution - November 12th 2023
Ahh, the ol' Haken post-release period really hits ya, huh? I've certainly got my money's worth out of Fauna over the past few months, and it's not lost its charm at all since! In the mean time, Ross and his Spock's Beard buddies released a follow-up to 2022's Troika, titled Sophomore!

Having listened to it for the first time on a hectic series of trains home from Newcastle on release date, it was a nice vibe but little more than that. Maybe it'll grow on me? Who knows.
