Former guitarist of Marilyn Manson and current lead guitarist for Rob Zombie. Started a side project band called Loser, which never truly came into the mainstream. He has worked with artists including Garbage, Avril Lavigne, and David Lee Roth. Overall he is a powerful and influential figure in the guitar industry, appearing at the NAMM show every year. His style is quite freeform, but still has a steady beat. His metal influences are obvious in his latest album The Devil Knows My Name, but he also branches into bluegrass and straight up blues through some of the album as well as his older works (Vertigo, Songs for Sanity). His split with Marilyn Manson was entirely mutual. Manson did not fire him, and John did not quit. After Holy Wood's tour, he simply felt he needed to branch out into other directions/work on his solo albums more. If you know him just because of Manson and Zombie, good god check out his stuff. His solos are absolutely devastating. great solo artist.
