“En “Voicemails from the Great Satan” el autor Adam Gnade y el músico Demetrius Antuña forjan un paisaje sonoro para todos nuestros miedos y frustraciones en la America de Trump, así como una voz para nuestros fantasmas. Desde el comienzo, la sensación de pesadez y desesperanza es asombrosa.”
Letras: Adam Gnade
Música: Demetrius Francisco Antuña
“In “Voicemails from the Great Satan,” author Adam Gnade and musician Demetrius Antuña forge a soundscape for all of our fears and frustrations in Trump’s America, as well as a voice for our ghosts. From its outset, the sense of heaviness and hopelessness is staggering.”
Words: Adam Gnade
Music: Demetrius Francisco Antuña

Author & Punisher “Nihil Strength”, off ‘Beastland‘ available Oct. 5th via Relapse Records.
This song is brutal, intense, is exactly what we needed to hear, it makes you want to scream blasphemies.

El visionario del industrial metal AUTHOR & PUNISHER presenta su sexta grabación de larga duración y su debut en Relapse Records, “Beastland”.
Inspirándose en su carrera como ingeniero mecánico, Tristan Shone (el creador y único artista detrás de Author & Punisher) forjó una relación con el diseño, el sonido y la fabricación, de lo que finalmente produjo sus Drone Machines construidas a mano, que mapearon el viaje desde instrumentación tradicional hacia la maquinaria de precisión personalizadas. Una experimentación robótica en metal industrial, noise, doom y drone, AUTHOR & PUNISHER recuerda Nine Inch Nails canalizando Godflesh, atravesando paisajes sonoros oscuros, intransigentes y a menudo perturbadores con desvíos ocasionales en ricas melodías y destellos de luz. Armado con nuevas Drone Machines y nueva disquera, Beastland es la declaración que define la carrera de AUTHOR & PUNISHER y una poderosa experiencia auditiva que difumina aún más la línea entre el hombre y las máquinas.
Beastland se grabó en la calle K en San Diego, California, diseñado por Tristan Shone y John Cota (Death Eyes). Se realizó una grabación adicional en Las Cruces, NM con Jason Begin (vytear). El álbum es co-producido por Braden Diotte (Faust, EXO // ENDO, Neurosis, Tarantula Hawk), mezclado por Kurt Ballou en God City y masterizado por Brad Boatright en Audiosiege. Arte por Juha Arvid Helminen. – Relapse Records
Industrial metal visionary AUTHOR & PUNISHER delivers his sixth full-length recording and Relapse debut Beastland. Drawing inspiration from his career as a mechanical engineer, Tristan Shone (the creator and sole artist behind AUTHOR & PUNISHER) forged a relationship with design, sound, and fabrication that ultimately yielded his hand-built “Drone Machines” which mapped the journey away from traditional instrumentation towards custom made “precision machinery.” A robotic experimentation in industrial metal, noise, doom and drone, AUTHOR & PUNISHER recalls Nine Inch Nails channeling Godflesh, traversing through dark, uncompromising, and often disturbing soundscapes with occasional detours into rich melodies and splinters of light. Armed with newly built “Drone Machines” and a new label, Beastland is AUTHOR & PUNISHER’s career-defining statement and a powerful listening experience that further blurs the line between man and machine.
Beastland was recorded at K Street in San Diego, CA and engineered by Tristan Shone & John Cota (Death Eyes). Additional recording was done in Las Cruces, NM with Jason Begin (vytear). The album is co-produced with Braden Diotte (Faust, EXO//ENDO, Neurosis, Tarantula Hawk), mixed by Kurt Ballou at God City and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege.

El pasado Viernes 15 de Junio Low Volts se presentó exitosamente en Tijuana, acompañado de The Hi-Watts, quienes junto a los inigualables .357 magnum&the Julio Pillado experience (Tj), prendieron la noche con su extravagante versión de rock n’ roll y a la talentosa Dani Bell (SD), quien interpretó canciones de su banda Dani Bell and The Tarantist, acompañada por su guitarra, boombox y su excelente voz.
Agradecemos especialmente a Mous Tache Bar por permitirnos usar su espacio para una noche llena de buena música, gracias a las personas valientes que se atrevieron a ir a ver bandas que tal vez no conocían.
