Rolling Clone's #1 Album Of The Year Posted June 08, 2016 By christopher164,
THIS REVIEW IS ADAPTED FROM A REVIEW I POSTED ON MY WEBSITE. TO CHECK OUT MY REVIEW OF APOLOGETIX'S ALBUMS FROM 1997 TO 2007, CLICK HERE!
Back in 1997, ApologetiX was only five years old and mostly unknown. (In fact, I wasn’t even born yet!) But APX recently got hold of semi-quality equipment and released their first quality album of all 90s hits.
This album, Ticked (Rolling Clone), is a little different than some of the other albums in some respects. As I mentioned above, this album only has 90s parodies, but also this focuses more on current issues than Bible stories or morals. For example, you get to hear about the problems we started having because we haven’t been “Come Out And Pray”ed. Or we can proclaim that it’s the “Little Sins” that kill, and show others that some perceptions of “Heaven Isn’t Like That.”
Even this album sounds better than their previous releases, it’s not the all-time quality album you might be expecting. The real start of their quality releases is “Keep The Change.”
But this album is quite amazing and some lyrics really jump out at me. I would advise you to take a listen to this album.
My favorite songs:
“Lightning Flashes” (parody of “Lightning Crashes” by Live)
“Counting Blessings” (parody of “Counting Blue Cars” by Dishwalla)
“Little Sins” (parody of “Little Things” by Bush)
But That Christian Parody Band had more to say. So in 2014, ApologetiX released Apoplectic, which features 12 songs that didn’t make it onto Ticked
