Borjesson, Tore S (2003年3月23日). “Red Hots verkliga frontman”. Aftonbladet. 2 July 2015閲覧。 “John McGeoch is a guitarist I want to be. He's got a new brilliant idea at each song. I generally listen to the records he recorded with [...] Siouxsie and the Banshees, Juju"” Ascott, Phil (July 2006). “Red Hot Chili Peppers John Frusciante”. Total Guitar. "On By The Way, I was completely against guitar soloing. My Perception of guitar playing at that time was influenced by John McGeoch of Siouxsie and the Banshees, Johnny Marr of the Smiths and Bernard Sumner of Joy Division." Dalley, Helen (August 2002). “Red Hot Chili Peppers”. Total Guitar. "I did have a few guitarists who I was intent of emulating and who were big influences on my sound on By The Way, [...] I wanted to listen to these people who weren’t just about technique but more about textures. People like Johnny Marr, John McGeoch [Siouxsie and the Banshees] and Andy Partridge [XTC]. People who used good chords."
