Paradise Wasted

In a breakaway move, Nocturne was signed onto Invisible Records/ Underground, Inc. One year later, "Paradise Wasted" was released. This CD was one of two "filler CDs" to bridge the gap between "Welcome to Paradise" and "Guide to Extinction". ''Paradise Wasted'' was essentially ''Welcome To Paradise'' with a new cover, now remastered, with two new bonus songs added, "Whore", and "Digit."

Axis of Evil: Mixes of Mass Destruction

After another year, ''Axis of Evil: Mixes of Mass Destruction'' was turned out in 2003, again, to pass the time for the band, working forward for its third album. Axis of Evil was more limited in its edition, now out of print. Axis was a remix album of ''Paradise Wasted''. The entire CD consisted of only 13 songs, but included a grand total of five versions of "Whore" and two versions of "My Bitch."

Guide to Extinction

For this album the band returned to their roots by signing back with Triple X Records. The CD was finally released in 2005, shortly after the break-up of the romantic relationship between Chris Telkes and Lacey Sculls. The album was considered Nocturne's best showcase, and features a variety of tracks that hint at their past sound. The band did a few months of touring, and afterward broke up.
