This is definitely Doom metal- not the kind you hear everyday, but it's metal nonetheless- mixed with a bit of Power Electronics (or Electronic Body Music), classic Drone, and, of course, Industrial. So, don't believe all those credo freaks who're screaming bullshit about this not being metal.

How so? I don't listen to either, because neither compelled me to listen to them. If I found out that a mumble rapper was actually using a highly modified trumpet to "rap" that would also blow my mind and drive me to give them a second chance for similar reasons to the above. If anything, if I like his music purely because of the tools he uses then that would be the ideology that fuels modern hip-hop, which is notoriously image obsessed. By taking both on the merits of their sound rather than the superficial "human story behind the scenes" so to speak we can be honest about our preferences. For the record I never thought Author & Punisher was bad, even before. The music was obviously interesting before, just not interesting in a way I could personally see myself listening to on a daily basis. That's not something I can say for most modern hip-hop.
