tr_🇺🇦 Amazing industrial doom. I'd listen to this for the low-end drone sound alone... Favorite track: The Barge.

violacaea Beautiful heavyness and industrial harshness with some nice sonic details thrown in. I love everything this outfit has released, but to me, this is the most haunting release. (ps: if you like cauterize, try the song fissure queen by Bonemagic) Favorite track: Future Man.

Umbra Author & Punisher's Tristan Shone delivers the darkest and most aggressive industrial sound I've ever heard, and Melk en Honing has some of his best tracks (The Barge probably being my absolute favorite). Favorite track: The Barge.

about

Author and Punisher's 5th full-length album, entitled Melk en Honing was produced by Phil Anselmo (Pantera, Down, Superjoint Ritual) and is a mélange of his various drone machinery together, multiple physical rhythm machines, some synthesizer and the new electromechanical masks that began to appear in A&P performances across the U. S. and Europe in 2014.

After 2 years of heavy touring and festival appearances, the goal with this album became to try and capture the live dissonant power of the A&P experience. The combination of Anselmo's persistence, expertise and some of Shone's new experimentation with various vocal devices, this is a vocal-prominent, bass heavy album that combines A&P's signature elusive drone sequences and hard hitting rhythms with unexpected terrains of melody and musicality that sustain Shone's reputation as an unorthodox innovator in a class all of his own.

Abandoning the typical guitar and drums set up, Author & Punisher makes aggressive rhythmic and oscillatory soundscapes from his own custom fabricated and precision machinery. Designed by Shone himself, the instruments of Author & Punisher are custom devices that begin mostly as big chunks of aluminum and steel that are worked into all manners of wheels, throttles, pedals, and masks to manipulate sound live.
