Band profile
Nova Spei — a new hope, three eras
Founded in Trois-Rivières in 2012 by guitarist Dany Soucy, Nova Spei has built its identity around French-language modern metal: heavy grooves, progressive textures and lyrics that leave room for reflection. Its name means new hope in Latin — a fitting thread for a band that has repeatedly reinvented itself.
Origin
Trois-Rivières, Quebec · formed in 2012
Sound
French-language modern metal with djent, groove and progressive influences.
Current era
A renewed five-member lineup is preparing Trinitas, the band's third album, for November 6, 2026.
From a new hope to a new era
Nova Spei was formed in Trois-Rivières in 2012 around guitarist Dany Soucy and the desire of musicians from the metal scene to create again. The name Nova Spei evokes a new hope — the idea of rediscovering the drive to write, record and perform.
The Trinitas era
Trinitas marks a major evolution for Nova Spei: a revitalized lineup, a new voice and a more organic approach to the band's modern metal sound. Recorded with Francis Perron and mastered by Maor Appelbaum, the 13-track album is scheduled for November 6, 2026.
