Nocturnal Orchestra sebuah band black metal yang datangnya dari bumi Jawa, Indonesia.

Black metal mereka lebih dikenali sebagai Extreme Sundanese Ethnic Black Metal. Sememangnya diharmonikan dengan elemen etnik dari Sunda.

Aku belum pernah lagi mendengar satu lagupun dari mereka. Album Nocturnal agak sukar diperolehi dalam pasaran Malaysia. Entahlah mungkin kurangnya permintaan dari scene Malayasia akan band-band dari seberang ini.

Jika berkesempatan nak jugak aku isikan deria pendengaranku dengan pukulan padu dari mereka. Tapi bila? Entahlah.
