Browning remained with Morbid Angel until the mid-1980s and appeared on several early demos. He also performed on the recordings for "Abominations Of Desolation," which had originally been planned as the band's debut album.

The band quickly stood out from many of its peers by mixing technical death metal with keyboards and science fiction themes, helping create a sound that was unique within the genre.
In 2008, Browning released a solo album titled Mike Browning's Inner Workings – Trancemissions.
The band released "Paradox" in 2019 and followed it with "Unicursal" in 2024 through Profound Lore Records. Both albums were well received by fans of progressive and science fiction-inspired death metal.
