Don Avera as the main member, works both as a solo artist and in joint collaborative projects with other performers. For the next Mortal Engines project there is an open call for collaborators working within the electronic music field, particularly those who have an inclination to combine acoustic/folk/ethnic instruments and vocals into a modern tapestry of sound.
Influences
Throbbing Gristle, Coil, Psychic Television, Bill Laswell, Scorn, Meat Beat Manifesto, Public Enemy, the Hafler Trio, Zoviet France, Nocturnal Emissions, Skinny Puppy....

All of the above and none of the above at the same time.
Started in 1994 in Portland. Contributed material to the Precipitation Compilation CD (1995- Partial Records), the Amphibious Maximus Compilation (1995- Red Phraug Records), and the Storm of Drones 3 CD compilation (1996-Asphodel Records). Spent the next seven years parenting & making home tapes. Pressure Vessel (the newest release) is finally available!
The previous Mortal Engines Release is a collaboration with the Noisettes (Static Blue, 2004- available through CD BABY). There is a SIGNIFICANT DISCOUNT for those willing to purchase the entire CD as mp3s. CD BABY will also send you photo files of the artwork and song list so you can make your own CD at home. Neat!
