@@2000jago Sadly his solo album (Flesh Caffeine) was unbelievably awful. It's one of the worst albums ive ever heard in my life - sorta shocked he was capable of making something so insanely awful.
@@SS-gx7tg Hhm, I watched an interview with Glenn and Eerie where they say it's Glenn that writes all the songs, obviously the band members contribute but without Glenn those songs wouldn't exist. But maybe they were just talking about Danzig 4. And then Rick Rubin also factors into it, as soon as he was gone it wen't downhill. Here's the interview: ua-cam.com/video/B1S9Xe0wFDA/v-deo.html&ab_channel=MatsEngesten
@@R.Lennartz But that's my point - all the band members contributed to writing those songs but the contracts were setup so that only Glenn got credited as the sole songwriter. Just one of many reasons he eventually lost his entire band, they just got tired of him taking more and more of the money and credit and acting like a tyrant. There's been zero guitar solos that sound like Christ's stuff after Christ left the band. If Glenn was truly the sole songwriter (as he likes to claim), the band wouldn't have taken such a drastically different direction after 4p.
The solos on the songs on Danzig III are even better, same w/ 4. This guy is unreal. I am sorta surprised he went back to teaching after Danzig. You'd think he'd have joined other big name metal bands given how talented he is, but I guess teaching guitar is what makes him happy. Glenn treating these guys like session musicians was so lame. I know Glenn has a huge ego and wanted the lion's share of the money but Danzig has been garbage after Erie, Chuck and John left.
I was at the Halloween show he mentioned at Irvine Meadows with White Zombie, absolutely epic. I got to meet them all prior to the show, and John was awesome, a good dude. Also my main guitar influence. I wish we saw more of him these days. Great upload
Oh man this dude is something! Like all 4 together were SO good. SO hot! SO sad they are no more. Ugh. They were perfect..thanks for posting. I've never seen this one with John. Wish the song was here too. I also like her. Blue hair wasn't as common I guess lol.😎🤘
My wife and I met him last week. He played a few tunes in my cousin’s band PILLBOX. He actually came up to us and introduced himself to us and talked with us till it was time for him to hit the stage. Very cool guy. A night I’ll always remember.
Same here summer 93 in ATL at the Roxy. Lightning strike knocked out power show delayed like 2 hours went back stage and stood around w biscuits and Christ for a few minutes
Great guitarrist, good looking well articulated man, good presence every time he was on the stage, nice hair, everything on him is perfect... I guess danzig kind of got jealous.
not only did i get to see danzig open for Metallica in the summer of 94 (suicidal was the opener then danzig) also saw them before xmas 94 w Type 0 opening. the cherry on top was meeting all of them when i ditched Metallicas set. i held glenns arm and told him he was god and ran away giggling like an idiot. after i got his signature...on my driver's license 😂😂😂😂😂. what a dork i was
What was the 'cause of this line-up break up? Glenn's ego? From 88' to 94' we're the best material ever. I like the rest of Danzig discography but i can't stop thinking how good could be if they stick together, at least most of them.
According to John the other there members had terrible contracts and they were just hired guns for Danzig. Chuck was fired for drugs and after that both John and Eerie left. Eerie hasn’t talked to Danzig since nor was he invited to any of the reunion shows
Interesting that today is Glenn’s birthday this is so far out how all of these guys are still alive I think one day hopefully evidently all four of them can reunite for one last time John Christ ,chuck biscuits, erie Von and Glen ,If it’s meant to be it’s meant to be happy birthday Glenn don’t get too old
This is just prior to the breakup, and just after that, John got thrown from a truck at 50 mph in a car wreck and broke half the bones in his body and mangled his playing hand. That's why he never had a career after Danzig.
Pardon? He's put solo material out, he still plays with a live band, and he gives guitar lessons. I don't know the specifics of the accident, but he seemingly didn't lose his ability to play or anything. He's even said he's up for a reunion tour with Glenn if ever asked, which I don't think he'd do if his ability were compromised.
this guy dropped off the planet. I think he had a bad motorcycle accident long ago and now i think i read he does guitar workshops and stuff. WIsh Danzig would have kept working with him or would again
@@Qliphirot Handsome? Damn, you got that right. He is gorgeous. He has aged very well. I never saw him interviewed back in the day. I was kinda scared to see how he looks now but just older and still gorgeous. I would have found it very hard to interview him seriously because of how good looking he was.
@@inthrutheoutdoor3464yeah. I would say Danzig 1-4 are amazing. There is no reason to listen to anything after Danzig 4 though. It's really not good at all.
His look is soooooo ICONIC!!!! GOON Rubin! (Responsible for ruining the sound of the 1st 3 LPs) to even IMAGINE his idea.for Jihn and what he should look like. Bleached blonde hair and an ALL WHITE gimmick. If the BUTT ROCK sound of those 1st LPs was bad enough... that was just over the line
Of course it is not. I don't care He is one hell of a good looking guy and came across pretty nicely in that interview. Not an egomaniac. He reminds me of a ghost from the past - a big regret where I was very interested but came across as too aloof.
No it isn't, Glenn, John and Eerie all used the same hair dye, here's a quote from John: "When I joined Danzig, I had to dye my hair black and shave my moustache, and go all black with biker boots and everything else, I had some very bad hair days in the beginning."
Still alive as far as I know... Eerie posted a photo on his Facebook over a year ago of him and Chuck. He’s looking rough, but still kicking... I think?
Shame no other bands picked this guy up. Outstanding guitarist

John Christ is one of my favorite guitarists of all time! I wish Danzig still had John, Eerie and Chuck. That line up was the best!
Thank you!!! John christ, eerie von and Chuckie biscuits were the definitive version of the band.
Good old John, I miss him. No ego, just enthusiasm.
One of my favorite things about him is that his work just gets better and better. Danzig 1-4 are amazing
John totally vibing on that interviewer
Dudes great. I didn’t realize until just recently how much he influenced my playing style. And always seemed like such a normal down to earth person.
Thank you thank you thank you! john christ is such a nice human being!
One of the most gifted guitarist - and in my opinion - deserving of being in the Top 20 guitarists of all time.

Kyuss killed it that night.
Thanks for sharing! Love these old interviews
Nice guy.. got his autograph at 1st ave in Minneapolis in 89... I was 15
I love when he gives clues to the hidden track on Danzig 4 I hear on some ‘newer ‘cd players u can’t even get to the secret track
Oh man this dude is something! Like all 4 together were SO good. SO hot! SO sad they are no more. Ugh. They were perfect..thanks for posting. I've never seen this one with John. Wish the song was here too. I also like her. Blue hair wasn't as common I guess lol.😎🤘
all my fashion inspiration comes from danzig and john and im not ashamed
4:08 He really likes her hair. He even sniffs it
John is so sprung on Vanessa.
He was checking if she broke wind😷
Hopefully John pounded that!!!!!
That was so cute from him💓
Been looking for content on this guy for a while, very cool!
Brilliant player and person.
John is the man and 4 is my favorite.
When John said listen to the whole album he was probably talking about invocation.
Doesn't act like the typical rock dude.more like the kid in school who was in chess club.johns a good dude

John is such a talented guitarist. Damn shame that Danzig's ego helped destroy the classic Danzig lineup: Glenn, John, Eerie & Chuck.
That was the best lineup Glenn has or will ever have in any band he has been or will be in.
Dude is a fucking legend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
94 J.C. with the 22" pythons rock and roll destroyer!
Hung out with john Christ after show in 94 knoxville tn show .drank beer talked real cool guy .
Same here summer 93 in ATL at the Roxy. Lightning strike knocked out power show delayed like 2 hours went back stage and stood around w biscuits and Christ for a few minutes
He’s hinting to the hidden 66 track. He said listen “ to the whole cd”
Awesome
"Listen to your WHOLE CD..." Yes lol, and he's talking about track 66, "Invocation" which successfully scared the ever living shit out of me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The 4th. Album kick ass and yes listen to the whole album..... thanks for all your awesome jams
J.C. is the dude!
What a nice guy JC is too, serious, very well spoken.
Seems like a very cool guy.
One of my best friends growing up in the 70's in Catonsville, Md.
Hey Mags, it' me Dibanski!!!😁
First 4 Danzig as good as first 4 Zeppelin
Better. I'm not a fan of Led Zeppelin.
Danzig 1 and 2 especially.
Great guitarrist, good looking well articulated man, good presence every time he was on the stage, nice hair, everything on him is perfect... I guess danzig kind of got jealous.

Can’t help but wonder if they “mixed” hair later at the hotel

Not one thumbs down...
Seems like a decent Christ. 😉
Phenomenal guitarist.
He definitely hit
Omg hes so sexy

If they had a filming crew during the How the Gods Kill support tour how come we've never seen any professional live footage till this day? SMFH
That’s Glenn for ya

The only time Danzig was a real band with real musicians. 1-3. All the songs had solos and a real blues format.
Its true that no one that played with glenn have lived up to "they real potential"😂
Now a days if he had touched her hair like that he probably would be accused of assaulting her or some shit.
this is my cousin dawg this is so weird too see
She was uncomfortable with this interview for sure
Well, he's handsome so she got intimidaded by him and his touch on the hair.
@@Qliphirot Handsome? Damn, you got that right. He is gorgeous. He has aged very well. I never saw him interviewed back in the day.

I have never seen an interview with him before. I always thought he was kind of standoffish. He is the exact opposite.
He's a total sweetheart.
Whos the guy in the background pickin his nose?
anybody else notice...why he sniffed her hair lol 😂 .
A lot cooler than Glenn
kiiiiiinda creepster-like behavior there.
@@chrismann3933 definitely creeper behavior
3:38 October 4th My son gunna be 1yr Birthday
Definitely got a gobby
Once you've worked for Mr Beaten Up, Danzig, your career is dead.
Why did John leave Danzig or was he kicked out?
I think one of the reasons he left was because Chuck was gone. It was kind of a domino effect.
I believe he didnt like the new direction the bands sound was headin. Plus Chuck leavin..
@@jrkchannel37 that was it he wasn't into the new direction nor was anyone else after Danzig 4 just a few good songs in the whole catalog would follow
Money, mainly not getting enough. Glenn only paid those guys a salary
