Author & Punisher is a one-man band from San Diego, formed in January 2004 by American mechanical engineer and artist Tristan Shone. Shone performs in a style based on industrial metal and drone music, using self-made devices he calls "Drone Machines" and "Dub Machines". Shone was inspired to build his own instruments to achieve the sound he wanted that conventional instruments could not accomplish, and also due to the difficulty in finding band members.
