The new NOCTURNUS AD album “Unicursal” will see its release on May 17th, the anticipated follow-up to 2019’s “Paradox” landing on said debut album’s fifth anniversary AND on the anniversary of Profound Lore Records year XX.
With “Paradox”, Nocturnus founder/sci-fi death metal godfather Mike Browning (also Morbid Angel co-founder) would resurrect Nocturnus lore under its new alteration NOCTURNUS AD which gave Browning the opportunity to finally continue the mythos that came before with the legendary album “The Key” almost 30 years after the release of one of the most influential death metal albums of all time. The result being NOCTURNUS AD’s debut album “Paradox” being the proper follow-up to “The Key” (musically and thematically) where the story of Dr. Magus would finally see its sequel three decades later.
The new NOCTURNUS AD album “Unicursal” sees Browning, along with guitarists Belial Koblak and Demian Heftel, keyboardist Josh Holdren, and new bassist Kyle Sokol (bass on “Unicursal” was performed by now-ex bassist Daniel Tucker), continue the journey of Dr. Magus following the events of “Paradox”. Now armed with his bio suit, on “Unicursal” Dr. Magus is sent on a mission to traverse through the Spheres of the the Kabbalistic Tree Of Life to conquer each sphere and collect its respective sigil/symbol. “Unicursal” will see Dr. Magus specifically travel to Malkuth, Yesod, Hod, and Netzach, the Tree’s lower realm, its roots (the story of Dr. Magus is featured on the album’s second half where the album’s first half will continue to explore ancient occult themes and mysteries from the unknown, separate from Dr. Magus’ story).
Evidently “Unicursal” is not only one of the most ambitious undertakings Browning has been involved with, but it is a formidable display of progressive occult metal wizardry that materializes NOCTURNUS AD as one of the most singular forces in extreme metal today; there truly is no other entity akin and “Unicursal” is another monolith that honours and continues the tradition and lore laid down with “The Key” and continued with “Paradox”. With blistering guitar manifestations courtesy of Koblak and Heftel, Holdren’s grand and epic synth passages and Browning holding down the rhythm with his calculated battery along with his unique commanding chants, “Unicursal” is a towering aeonic manifestation, extraordinary sci-fi otherworldly death metal forging itself through time and space.
“Unicursal” was produced/engineered/mastered by Jarrett Pritchard at New Constellation Audio in Orlando, Florida, and features artwork by Uwe Jarling with design by Chimere Noire.

CephaloGod lyrics:
It's the CephaloGod
Ancient being from space
Coming to the Earth
To destroy the human race
CephaloGod, Ancient One, mighty beast, from beyond
Coming from the spaces in-between
Terror unlike you've never seen
Tentacles squirming from his face
Horrific being from outer space
As he sleeps and awaits
For mankinds final fate
He will awaken when the stars align
Breaking the Seal of The Elder Sign
Dreaming in an ancient slumber
For aeons of countless numbers
He awaits till the stars are right
To stretch his wings into flight
Agents of chaos, calling him forth
Chanting his name
Spilling the blood
CephaloGod, Ancient One, mighty beast, from beyond
As they chant the ancient hymns
To bring him forth through the gate
A portal opens in the sky
Like a giant Evil Eye
From a whirling abyss above
Comes a sound like never heard
A roaring thunder shakes the Earth
A giant womb giving birth
As he emerges from the portal
Creature of death that's immortal
A monstrous shadow in the sky, no one can look him in the eye
As he claims his throne again
From a time way back when
Ancient One now takes his place
The CephaloGod with No Face
CephaloGod, Ancient One, mighty beast, from beyond

Cosmic Horror always present in their albums since their foundation, thanks Nocturnus
This takes me back to The Key. Love it.
It’s badass
Been a fan since 1990. Pre-ordered everything!
This album is going to be insane
I used to hang with these guys way back in the day when their first album dropped. Glad to see they are still around. and that song was pretty damn cool.
It's great to see Mike Browing still in action.
Such an awesome video + song, too! Pre-ordered 2 x LP immediately!🤘
Lots of HPLovecraft Cuthulu references in this video
Yeah? You think? 😄
Cazzo che occhio!
Non me ne ero accorto,si nota appena…🤦🏻
This is a common theme with Nocturnus
@ConjuringsMMR I know that Mike Browning is really into that stuff. He had another band called After Death where they did a lot of Cthulhu stuff, dwellers of the deep etc. But After Death had to change to the Nocturnus name to get booked more shows etc. Early Nocturnus was more sci-fi lyrically.
@@ConjuringsMMR¿Son los mismos músicos Nocturnus AD y Nocturnus?
Maybe the first time and the first death metal band where an AI video is fitting to the content.
using an AI is actually kinda anti sellout haha
And, having been the first, likely the last time using Lovecraftian AI imagery in a metal video will be cool. (Expect an onslaught of imitators...)
Hour of Penance: Hold my beer 😂
@@JayV426 Disagree; HoP visuals look more professional, but that just makes them more akin to standard computer graphics: glossy but lifeless.
It pairs together SO well! Especially the parts using footage, almost like a hybrid between Gwar and that Dinosaurs show from the 90's with the objectively unsettling dino costumes.
Great song and video! 🤘🏻
Fuck yes!
Fuck yes!
Stoked for the album.
Impressed with this track.
Nocturnus never disappoints! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

There r lots of bands incorporating cosmic horror now a days but i think lot of people dont realize that Nocturnus is among the original Void horror metal band there is.. Deus Ex...
Damn that was cool!
Awesome video awesome band
The use of AI seems fitting for Scifi-Death Metal Gods Nocturnus.
Yeah! 💀🤘🏻
awesome video this album is going to be killer!
brutal🤟🏻
Клип чума! Ноктюрнус лучшие)
Brutalidad! 🤘
Crazy shit
I understand the issues with the ethics of using AI, because it is always kinda stolen artwork... but damn it really looks cool here and fits the Noctornus aesthetic.
Mike is phenomenon.I am proud!!! I 🖤 NOCTURNUS - NOCTURNUS AD...🤘👽🤘
alone in the dark without the dark
This is extremely reminiscent of The Ziggurat. They've been doing Lovecraftian metal since 1997. I seem to recall them having band pics that are filtered like this.
Amazing, the ancient gods of tech Death Metal
Nocturnus AD + HP Lovecraft ❤
Good mix ever nanu
Ultra cool video and equally killer track 🔥🐙
@Wizardhead makes the best shit

Wow, this gave me the heebie jeebies.
trailblazing video and vision.
Very interesting looking video.
Excelente 🤘💀🤘
There is always something about Mike's voice that is so unconventionally unique in Death Metal. Paradox was great, this seems like a step in the right direction.
Not bad for a drummer...
Cthulhu F'tagn!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
