Michael B. from BLAIRSVILLE, GA
Reviewed on 6/19/2015...
The band usually says they are Weird Al meets Billy Graham and it is true. This Greatest Hits collection includes more than just the standard one or two new cuts that mainstream bands put on their Greatest Hits compilations. This is a great summary of the classic lineup with J. Jackson on vocals and lyrics, Karl Messner on guitars, Keith Haynie on bass, and Bill "Moose" Rieger on drums.

If you want to connect with your kids, this is a great ice-breaker. Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" becomes "Bethlehemian Rhapsody" about the conversations between David and Goliath. The musicianship is tops - no trax type music hear.

18 New Tracks
Quipper | United States | 10/26/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"According to the Apologetix website, this 2-disc set contains 18 new songs, including several live recordings of previously released material.



Since I am equally familiar with the original songs as I am with some of Apologetix's parodies, from time to time I find myself thinking the 'new' words to mainstream songs that I hear on the radio. That's fun.



The vast majority of times, the quality of an Apologitex parody equals the original--vocally and instrumentally; this is especially true on their more recent releases. That really is an amazing commentary on these guy's talent.



I highly recommend this purchase, as well as some of their other more recent albums!"

"If I could give this album ten stars I would.I have all of Apologetix cds and they are all outstanding.These guys music talent and J Jacksons songwriting are truly amazing.Apologetix are more talented than 99% of the bands out there today.The music sounds exactly like the original and J Jackson can change his voice to sound like anyone.Their songs are so close to the originals,you have to be careful or you will be singing the old lyrics.If you're new to Apologetix this is a good place to start,since it has a little bit of all styles of music on it.I personally like the rock songs.They do parody's of AC/DC,Ozzy,Judas Priest,Poison,Metallica and many more.They also do parody's of country,rap,new metal,early rock n roll.As I said these guys are super talented,just get this cd and see for yourself.Better yet get all their cds,you won't be dissappointed."
