The guitar was John’s first attempt at playing an instrument. However, he was never particularly skilled in that area.
At the age of fifteen, John and his best friend Roger Painter (also known as Rozz Williams), who were both fans of both vintage glam rock and contemporary punk rock such as that of The Germs, came up with the idea to form a band.
In the year 1979, he created the band Christian Death in the garage of John’s parents along with Roger. John’s parents were the band’s first fans. In its early stages, punk music served as its primary influence, rather than death rock.
