Johnathan|Christian, the Stockholm-based post punk project helmed by writer/vocalist Christian Granquist, is a collaborative endeavor with New York’s alternative music veterans, including the former New Creatures’ drummer and keyboardist, Tiger Koehn, and Johnathan Mooney. Their latest release, Résistance Mon Amie, is a testament to their influences, which encompass iconic performers like Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus, Depeche Mode, Joy Division, Siouxsie & The Banshees, The Mission UK, and the Cure. While remaining true to the traditional dark wave sound, Johnathan|Christian infuse their music with soaring, epic refrains and dramatic fugues, carving out a unique style.
If you’re a fan of bands like Pink Turns Blue and Sisters of Mercy, this intriguing blend might just be your new favorite musical potion.
