After Death

Not to be confused with thrash metal band After Death from Chicago, Illinois. In mid-1999, Mike Browning (vocals, drums), Richard Bateman (bass), and Gino Marino (guitars) - all of the first original line-up of Nocturnus in 1987 - reformed as Nocturnus A.D. with Mike Walkowski on guitars, replacing the only other original member from 1987, Vincent Crowley ( Acheron ). The name was changed to After Death in 2000 so it would not be associated with Nocturnus. The band again performed as Nocturnus in 2013 for selected shows, though they may not do so in the US due to copyright issues. The band recorded an EP titled "Vibrations" in 2000, but it was released only as part of the "Retronomicon" compilation in 2007. In 2013, Nocturnus AD was reformed again with the same lineup as After Death. Compilation appearances: - "Temple of Chtulu" on The New Wave of Florida Heavy Metal: Volume 1 (Splattergod, 2000, CD) - "Lords of the Black Path" on Devil's Grave Compilation I ( From the Grave Productions & Devil's Poison Produktionen , 2011, CD) - "[untitled track]" on Tu futuro... ( Proselytism , 2011, CD-R)
