John Menich

I could not be more disappointed, sir.

Thank you! Now someone needs to tell Chuck that the rules of the game have changed.

Well, so much for the resistance.

After watching a video of Sabbath live in Paris in 1970, I looked into buying the reissue of the monkey SG. But it became clear that corners were cut. So I bought this standard to do some modifications...

Time and Again John Menich · Single · 2025 · 1 songs

Time and Again is my ultimate expression of guitar as symphony. Written for 48 guitar strings and feedback, it creates a swirling ocean of colliding harmonics and auditory hallucinations. Enjoy!

It's just the worm talking!

One of the most underrated bands of the 90's.

Extra crispy!

Communion John Menich · Single · 2025 · 1 songs

Im always looking for new ways to use the tried and true formula of guitar, drums, and bass in new and unique ways, and I think that trend continues with Communion.

Yellow Roses

Interestingly, my song, Yellow Roses, has taken off on Spotify. Written about the death of someone very close to me, I struggled to write music to fit the weight of the lyrics. I settled on a quasi-reggae, Caribbean approach, hoping the song would be more of a celebration than a dirge.

I read the article as I put another vinyl record on my new Audio Technics turntable.

Spending Saturday finishing the guitar for the last track on my new album by stacking tracks of feedback to orchestrate the outro.

Laying down some guitar for a last-minute composition called "the Wolf", which will be on my forthcoming album, Implacable Black. It's an ominous-sounding tuning I came up with that goes C,D#,C,D#,C,D#.

When you need extreme wah for the guitar solo=guitar into wah into amp head into talk box into mouth. I'm pretty sure I loosened some teath on this one.

Yeah, I get that. I do the same kinda thing with Spotify; if I like something I hear, I'll go buy the physical album or CD.

I am fine paying for a physical copy of an artistic work, as opposed to the privilege of choosing from a selection of options I am willing to settle for, simply because it's convenient.

New album is almost completed. Here are my final 3 contenders for the album art. Any thoughts?

Tomorrow, my new single, a Depeche Mode cover/reworking, goes live on all major streaming platforms. Be sure to give it a listen! I have a soft spot for old 80s New Wave music and will be doing more in 2025. All instruments and vocals performed and recorded by myself.
