God Told Me To cover - album by John 5 - cover art by Rob ZombieMetalInsider’s Zach Shaw recently sat down with John 5 for a new interview.

Read this fantatsic review from Gigseen for the new album ‘God Told Me To’

Album Review: John 5 ‘God Told Me To’ Review by Kate Fletcher

Ex-Marilyn Manson guitarist and member in Rob Zombie, John 5′s God Told Me To is his sixth solo album. Taking elements from his past material as well as moving in new directions, this record really defies any genre, and showcases one of the most talented and underrated modern guitarists.

The follow-on from 2010′s The Art Of Malice, this ten track, instrumental album shifts between John 5′s well-known and loved blend of electric guitar, speed metal style, and his newly found acoustic guitar sensibility.

Hot of the presses today, Plug’d In Magazine interviews John 5.

This Is: John 5 Interview by Vikki Sin

Having played extensively with rock powerhouses Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie, not to mention collabs with David Lee Roth, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and childhood hero Paul Stanley to name a few, this legend in the making has also kept us entertained with 7 solo albums; the latest of which, “God Told Me To’” is being released this coming May. Looks like his childhood prayers came true, an amusing thing given his heavily horror themed resume.
