"The Doctor" showcases Nocturne's love of the hit TV series Doctor Who and his various types of musical writing styles. The album ranges from house, symphonies, techno, trance, and ambient. Three of the songs include his bandmates Arkane and Rayure~ from Symphonia, and it really brings out their self-described "hardstyle symphony" sound.
3) Nocturne is a nu metal / industrial metal band from Dallas, Texas, United States. Their album "Guide to Extinction" has received rave reviews. InMusicWeTrust.com calls Nocturne's vocalist Lacey Conner "powerfully provacative".

The band went on indefinite hiatus in 2006. Lacey moved to Los Angeles working on a solo project and was later selected to appear in the VH1 show "Rock of Love".

5) Nocturne was a black metal band from Strasbourg, France, formed in 2002.
6) Nocturne is a five-piece electro-gothic outfit based out of Portland, Oregon, United States. "Of Beauty and Decay", is their debut release that actually consists of mostly older material by this eighteen month old project. Perhaps the best thing about this EP is the lack of gothic stereotypes that usually befalls most new gothic bands. Jeff, the lead vocalist, doesn't feel it necessary to sign every track with an abnormally deep voice. Instead he uses his rather dynamic vocal range to reflect the variety of moods present on the record. Musically, the EP is a perfect blend of electronics, guitars, and drums. The instruments are never forced to compete with each other for dominance in the track, and instead compliment each other throughout the EP. This suggests that the band has had a great deal of previous musical experience due to the strength of the final mix of each track. Regardless, this EP is a very strong first effort from a band together for such a short time prior to it's release. Other gothic acts should really look to bands like Nocturne as examples of how to properly compose music without sounding derivative and boring, because Nocturne obviously has that skill down perfectly.
Nocturne has had the pleasure of touring with and or playing along side bands like:
SwitchBlade Symphony, Spahn Ranch, Sunshine Blind, The Electric Hellfire Club, Big Electric Cat, Christian Death, NON, Crash Worship, Black Atmosphere, The Prophetess, Test Dept., Noxious Emotion, Sheep on Drugs, The Razor Skyline, Engines Of Agression, The Impotent Sea Snakes, Trance to the Sun, Faith and Disease, Kevorkian Death Cycle, Lycia, Bethany Curve, Voltaire, Collide, The Cruxshadows, Bella Morte and many more.
