AUTHOR & PUNISHER 
Added To Technicians Of Distortion Tour With Philip H. Anselmo & The 
Illegals; New Track Streaming At NPR

As the imminent 
unleashing of AUTHOR 
& PUNISHER�s Women & Children full-length 
draws 
near, 
industrial 
sound savage/engineer/former robotics major Tristan Shone is 
very pleased to announce a run of North American tour dates supporting Philip H. 
Anselmo & The Illegals! Set to commence July 31st in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the 
Technicians Of Distortion Tour will rampage its way through 15 cities, coming to 
a sweltering close on August 20th in Atlanta, Georgia. Additional support will 
be provided by Warbeast.

Comments Shone: 
�I 
am extremely excited that Phil invited me on this tour...I think for 
A&P to be able to play through these sound systems in rooms this size with a 
ravenous audience will be killer. I can't wait!� See confirmed dates 
below.

AUTHOR & 
PUNISHER mercilessly manipulate the 
principal conventions of doom, industrial 
and heavy bass music relying on cold steel and soulless machinery to sonically 
replicate the despondency of life. Described most succinctly as �industrial 
doom,� this one-man project utilizes primarily custom designed and fabricated 
machines and speakers, devices that draw heavily on aspects of industrial 
automation and robotics and focus upon the eroticism of interaction with 
machine. Through his maniacal audio decomposition, Shone paints an often 
disturbing soundscape of a diseased world. 

In celebration of 
Shone�s compelling creations, today Nation Public Radio hurls forth third track 
�Melee.� Fittingly notes NPR: �Bloated, 
muddled beats hang in the air like zeppelins until Shone's steel-toed boot of a 
chorus comes crashing down. The structure is something like Nine Inch Nails� 
strongest songs: the build, the climax, then the chaos. The last minute of 
�Melee� sounds like a death march led by a million-strong war cry. The machines 
have taken over. You have 20 seconds to comply.�

Check out the 
�Melee� RIGHT HERE.

And if you missed 
it, you can still hear title track �Women & Children� streaming at Stereogum 
at THIS LOCATION as well as �In Remorse� 
courtesy of Pitchfork HERE, where you�ll also find in 
in-depth interview with Shone.

�It�s the kind of 
music that renders the listener helpless but to listen again and again.� � Steel 
For Brains

�Shone�s 
apocalyptic noise blends elements of industrial, doom, and dubstep, and contorts 
that mass into some chilling, unrecognizable form�� � 
Stereogum

�Once again the 
envelope has been pushed, the box stepped outside of and the tenants of doom and 
industrial have been refracted through the prism of the mind of a true innovator 
and they sound all the better for it. There are so few unique and wonderful 
things left in music, but AUTHOR & 
PUNISHER truly is one of 
them.� �The Sleeping Shaman

��an all-consuming 
trip into the realm of mental destruction that amazes with its potent use of 
musical machinery. Shone certainly knows how to draw from many influences 
without making them painfully obvious, and this new album only refines his knack 
for crafting electronic music that's chiefly ingrained in industrial and doom 
metal. Both greatly daring and innovative, the record is destined to be one of 
the most coveted underground releases of the year.� � Sputnik
