Two bands with the same name.
1) Many of the tracks listed here are errors, as audio production software Nuendo and Cubase automatically tag the mp3 exports as The Author - The Title as default. Hence unnamed mp3s are tagged as such.
However, The Author is a Hardcore band from Brisbane, Australia. Formed in late 2009 by Joel Birch of The Amity Affliction, also featuring members of SKYWAY! and headaches.
