Nocturnus A.D. - Paradox (2019)

Close

Resurrected from the ashes of one of the most influential death metal bands of all time, Nocturnus, NOCTURNUS AD was initiated by Nocturnus founder/mastermind/death metal legend Mike Browning (also Morbid Angel co-founder) to continue the path that was laid down, almost 29 years later, by the legendary Florida death metal band’s seminal 1990 album “The Key”, an album recognized as one of the most important death metal albums of all time. “Paradox” is the direct and proper follow-up and follows the aftermath of the events that went down in “The Key”. On a musical plane, “Paradox’s” otherworldly, technical dark atmospheric occult death metal blueprint harnesses and carries on the energy of “The Key” and the overall cult death metal vibe of the early ‘90s in the singular forward-thinking way that Nocturnus exhibited. Musically overwhelming and pretty much a sonic attack on the senses from every angle, “Paradox” is sci-fi death metal reclaiming its throne back to its originators. With Browning (first time back on the Nocturnus vessel since 1992) commanding the craft through his precision drumming and distinct vocals spewing the incantations alongside a lineup that continues the Nocturnus legacy through guitarists Demian Heftel and Belial Koblak, bassist Daniel Tucker (ex-Obituary), and keyboardist Josh Holdren. With “Paradox” NOCTURNUS AD will reclaim and continue to properly carry the legacy Nocturnus laid down with “The Key”, “Paradox” being the ceremonial illuminating Nocturnus-related release that has finally befallen the mortal coil after 29 years.
