Nocturnus, currently Nocturnus AD, is a Florida death metal band formed in Tampa, Florida, in 1987 by the drummer and vocalist Mike Browning (ex–Morbid Angel).
==History== ===Formation=== Nocturnus was formed in 1987 by drummer and vocalist Mike Browning following the breakup of his old band, Incubus. The band was formed by Browning, former Incubus guitarist Gino Marino, and former Agent Steel bassist Richard Bateman. The band eventually began working on material and added a second guitarist, Vincent Crowley. This first lineup recorded one self-titled demo in 1987. Crowley quit (going on to form Acheron) and was replaced by then-unknown 18-year-old guitar prodigy Mike Davis, who was also Marino's cousin. Bateman quit shortly afterward to join Nasty Savage.
