Biography

He is also a record producer and owner of HVR Recording Studios where he has produced bands such as Agonyst, Brainchoke, Depraved Plague and Lock Up to name a few.

As well as producing the last two Criminal albums 'White Hell' and 'Akelarre' he is currently working on the first ever full length by Pentagram (more than 20 years after their initial break up) and a new album by 1980s thrashers Anihilated.

According to his own personal page he did recently start a band with Zac O'Neil (Criminal/Agonyst/Extreme Noise Terror) and Paul Martin (Brainchoke/Infected Dissaray) called N.C.A. (No Corporate Agenda or No Cunts Allowed depending on which version you believe, left unanswered for the sake of humour apparently) this band was originally written with Phil Vane (also of Extreme Noise Terror) in mind on vocals and was shelved after Vane's death (they never even rehearsed as a full line up but the songs were always being written with Vane's voice as the inspiration).

When asked at Bloodstock 2012, Dan Biggin replied that "I wouldn't rule out doing the band but Phil was one of a kind and it is hard to imagine who could sing the songs, I would love to record the songs still and maybe have a different singer on each track initially and then find a permanent singer for live shows. In that case I would like Barney from Napalm and Tompa from Lock Up to sing on it."
