Author & Punisher
Grywnn · CC BY-SA 4.0

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.

The name is a reference to a religious t-shirt that Shone wore in college. Shone said it was a way to poke fun at a bible verse that refers to Jesus as "author and finisher" (Hebrews 12:2).

Shone has released nine albums as Author & Punisher, with Melk en Honing (2015) and Pressure Mine (2017) released through Phil Anselmo's record label Housecore Records. Beastland (2018) was released on Relapse Records, which is Shone's current label. It was followed by Krüller (2022) which featured several guest musicians. For live dates after Krüller, Shone added guitarist Doug Sabolick making the first gigs he performed live with another musician as Author & Punisher. The most recent album is Nocturnal Birding (2025), which was released on October 3, 2025.
