J. Jackson, lead singer and lyricist for ApologetiX here.
On March 1, 2024, longtime ApX fan and friend David Michael took over mixing and mastering duties on the band’s recordings. His first mix was “Jesus Is God’s Son.” With the release of our latest single, “Shush / Higher Than," on Sunday night, he has now mixed 50 parodies for us, plus the remix of our "‘80s Medley (Octagon but Not Forgotten).” Wow, time flies!
David lives in Athens GA, home of the Georgia Bulldogs, R.E.M., and The B-52’s. He has a wife, Rebekah, five young children, and a full-time job. We’re not sure how he manages to make time for us, let alone mix and master so magnificently, but we’re extremely thankful he does. Congratulations, David, on your one-year anniversary as our mixer and on your 50th parody! You got off to a great start and you keep getting better and better!
"It truly has been a journey that I have cherished,” David wrote to all of the band guys in a recent email. Thank you for trusting me with the sound of your great work. Every single one of you are absolutely gifted and special … I'm very excited to hear what you came up with each and every time. It is my complete joy to serve the LORD through this ministry. As you may know, I've been a dedicated fan and listener since about 2006 (between Wordplay and Chosen Ones). You've been my favorite band — and spoiler alert — you still are!”
David’s in-laws live in West Virginia, and he was able to catch a Dream Theater concert in Wheeling WV Tuesday night with ApX keyboardist Rich Mannion. Below, we’ve included a selfie they took. The following day, I got to hang out with David for the afternoon. Then he joined us in the studio that evening for a recording session with my daughter Janna and ApX drummer Jimmy “Vegas” Tanner. Also in attendance were Jimmy’s wife, Eve, and Janna’s husband, Rob.
God bless you, David!

New Single: Deep Purple & Black Sabbath Parodies |
Last Sunday night, we released our fifth single of 2025. It spoofs classic tunes by a couple of colorful heavy-metal pioneers. |
Shush - Deep Purple Higher Than - Iron Man - Black Sabbath |
|
The Stories Behind the Songs on This Single |
J. Jackson, lead singer and lyricist for ApologetiX here again.
Here are the stories behind the songs on our fifth single of 2025:
SHUSH
When I see some of the stuff people post on social media, I often think of a line from a Third Day song: "If you can't say nothin' good, don't say nothin' at all." In James 3:2-12, he talks about the untamable tongue and the damage it can cause.
That's one of the prime inspirations for "Shush," as is an earlier passage in chapter one of that same epistle, most notably these two verses, "My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry ... Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless" (James 1:19, 26).
Although Deep Purple's "Hush" came out in 1968, I first heard (and loved) it in the early '80s, blasting from a boombox in the back of the bus I rode to high school, courtesy of the cool kids. I brought up the idea of spoofing it to Jimmy on March 3, 2025. He recorded the drums on March 4, Rich did the keyboards on March 5, Tom Tincha finished the guitars on March 8, and Keith had the bass done by March 9.
Meanwhile, I was writing the lyrics, mostly on a March 6-8 trip to Kentucky for my father-in-law's funeral. I recorded the vocals on March 11, so we had all the parts done in eight days. Jimmy then got the tracks to our mixer, David Michael, to work on that weekend, and we released the final mix on a single on March 16. That's one of the fastest turnaround times ever for an ApX parody.
"Shush" features J. Jackson on lead and backing vocals, Tom Tincha on guitars, Rich Mannion on keyboards, Keith Haynie on bass, and Jimmy "Vegas" Tanner on drums and percussion. HIGHER THAN
Over the years, a number of fans have asked if we'd ever spoof Black Sabbath's "Iron Man." I just always thought that tune was primitive and redundant (until recently). The two opening chords sounded amazing, scary, and unbelievably heavy, but after that, it had one of the simplest rock riffs I’d ever heard (then again, we did do "Smoke on the Water") and the vocals just basically followed along.
So I really hadn't listened to the whole song enough to recognize how complicated and cool it became during the lead sections. And I never realized it had so many words. I'd heard it the whole through before, but it had been a while. I mistakenly thought it didn’t have enough lyrical space to really tell a story. Boy, was I wrong!
The idea for "Higher Than" came to me on December 14, 2024, although I didn't write the rest until late February and early March 2025. We needed something sinister to match the mood of that opening line, "I am higher than." If ApX hadn't already done multiple songs about Goliath, I might have considered him, but Satan was infinitely scarier.
The title alludes to Isaiah 14:12-15. That passage of Scripture officially addresses the king of Babylon, but many pastors and teachers believe (as did some of the early church fathers) it also refers to the fall of Satan from Heaven, considering other verses such as Luke 10:18, Revelation 12:7-17, Ezekiel 28:11-19, and Genesis 3:5. Obviously, I agree or I wouldn't have written this parody.
"Higher Than" features J. Jackson on lead and backing vocals, Wayne Bartley on guitars, George Elliott on bass, and Jimmy "Vegas" Tanner on drums and percussion. |

Cool Video Discovered from ApX 25th Anniversary Show |
A fan recently drew this video from the ApologetiX 25th anniversary show in 2017 to our attention.
It’s mislabeled, do don’t be fooled. The video is actually us doing “Maybe Madonna," a parody of "Lady Madonna" by The Beatles.
Guest stars include Greg Macaluso on piano and George Dorow on saxophone. We thought you might enjoy it. |

Updates on Tom Milnes & Bill Rieger |
J. Jackson, lead singer and lyricist for ApologetiX here again.
As readers of our recent newsletters know, two band ApX guys are currently dealing with brain tumors. I have some updates for you:
I spoke with Tom Milnes on the phone Thursday morning. He’d had a pre-op appointment the day before. It seemed to go very well. Tom’s doctor is one of the top 10 surgeons in the nation for this type of operation, and things look very promising. Tom feels very at peace about it. His surgery is scheduled for this coming Tuesday, March 25.
Tom will be preaching this Sunday at Ellport Community Church, as usual, but ApX bassist Keith Haynie (who already teaches the church's weekly Wednesday-night Bible study) will be filling in next Sunday, March 30. I’m supposed to give the sermon the following Sunday, April 6.
Easter isn’t until April 20, so we’re hopeful Tom will be ready go for Palm Sunday, April 13.
Bill Rieger isn’t much for talking on the phone these days, but he does continue to give updates:
MONDAY
"Have an appointment at 9 a.m. Tuesday for radiation mask fitment. Hopefully I get radiation schedule."
TUESDAY
"5 a.m. seizure. Waited it out this time. Went to radiology for initial set-up. Radiation therapy starts Monday. at 8 a.m., every day M-F for six weeks. First week has higher seizure risk. After radiation therapy, sometimes the brain swells week 1. After that, should see improvement."
THURSDAY
"It's good to be loved by a strong woman. Through her 20-plus year Sisyphus fight with depression etc., where most saw her at her weakest, I saw her at her strongest. Encouraged by other strong Christian women to push through, she gained the strength that she would need to help me.
"Where people might see me at my weakest, she has a special insight to my fight — inspired by hers. God didn't inflict that on her, but He used it to prepare her. It's my turn to lean on her and she is ready right when I need her most. It's good to be loved by Chris Parker Rieger.”
Please keep Tom and Bill in your prayers. Thank you.

Update on ApX Fan Mike Doane |
We’ve told you before about a longtime fan and friend of the band in Maryland named Mike Doane, who learned in December that he has Large B-cell Lymphoma. Mike just had his third chemo treatment and gave us this update yesterday to share: |
I feel bad even sharing this after reading what Bill and Tom are going through. It makes me feel like what I have is just a really bad cold. But I want to share, as I truly know that God has His hands in my recovery and we all know He can will do them same for the guys. No problem is too small for Him and I am praying for both of them.
All praise to God and a big thanks to all of you for your prayers and wishes! I completed round #3 this past Monday and am just two weeks away from the halfway point of the treatments. Since my last update, there have not been any major side effects from the chemo. I have only had a couple of days of stomach discomfort, but nothing overwhelming, and, since the second treatment, I have not had any back pain. I still have my mustache even though it is much thinner than normal. Now if I could only get rid of the constant "metal mouth" taste. My weight has stabilized over the last few weeks which has given me more energy. This week was the first time in the past few months where I felt strong enough to spend time outside taking care of items around the house and playing with the grandkids. The next step in the process will be a second PET scan on 4/1 to see how the treatment is working. I will send an update once I have those results. My doctor believes that feeling well is a sign that the cancer is being cured, but only the scan will let us know for sure. Many thanks for letting me share my story with you and again for all your prayers. It has been very encouraging and helpful. |
Thanks to all of you who are praying for Mike. |

Bible-Reading Ends Tue., Starts Again Wed. |
J. Jackson, lead singer and lyricist for ApologetiX here again.
We began our latest trip through the Bible by starting Genesis on April 3, 2024, and we’ll finish Revelation this Tuesday, March 25. That means we’ll start our next trip this Wednesday, March 26. If you were wishing you’d made (or kept) a New Year’s resolution to read it the whole way though, here’s your chance.
We can read through the whole Bible in less than a year if we just do about three chapters a day, except Psalms. The Psalms are shorter and more plentiful, so we'll do 10 of those a day when we get to them. I do it this way every year, and it takes about 355 days.
We'll usually end on a chapter number that's a multiple of three. If we get to a book that has one chapter more than a multiple of three, we'll read four chapters on the last day of that book. If it has two chapters more than a multiple of three, we'll read only two chapters on that day.
For example, Genesis has 50 chapters, so we'll read the first 48 chapters in 16 days, then read two chapters on the 17th day. Exodus has 40 chapters, so we'll read the first 36 chapters in 12 days, then read four chapters on the 13th day.
What about the five books that are one chapter long and the book that's two chapters long? When we get to the last three chapters of Amos, we'll also read Obadiah (one chapter) the same day. When we read Titus (three chapters), we'll also read Philemon (one chapter).
The way the numbers fall, the other three one-chapter books all come in a row, so we'll read 2 John, 3 John, and Jude on the same day. Haggai is the only two-chapter book in the Bible, so it gets a day to itself.
However, you don’t have to figure all that out. We include a handy-dandy monthly calendar (designed by my lovely wife, Lisa) every week in our newsletter, as you can clearly see in the article below this one. |

Bible-Reading Plan for 2025 |
We began our latest trip through the Bible on Wednesday, April 3, 2024. Note: If you don't have a Bible handy, you can look up these passages for free on Bible Gateway. They have about 60 different English translations/versions there to choose from, plus translations in many other languages, many of which also have multiple translations/versions. |

Influential Albums #1773–1779 |
J. Jackson, lead singer and lyricist for ApologetiX here again.
Here are the latest entries in the "albums that influenced me" series I started writing in May 2020.
Note: Just because an album appears on this list doesn't mean I give it a blanket endorsement. Many of the secular albums on this list are mainly there because they wound up being spoofed by ApologetiX.
1773. Zedekiah, Hezekiah, Jeroboam & Other Guys - ApologetiX Sounds like a law firm doesn't it? Zedekiah, Hezekiah, Jeroboam & Other Guys. But only one of the people named on that list cared about God's law, even though all three of them ruled over God's people at one time or another. We gave our 75th LP the royal treatment, filling it with parodies about numerous kings: David, Solomon, Rehoboam, Jeroboam, Hezekiah, Sennacherib, Jehoiakim, Zedekiah, and Nebuchadnezzar ... and the Queen of Sheba. They're names any Bible believer should know, but unless you're also a Bible reader, you've probably only heard of half of them, and you may have trouble coming up with details about any of them besides David and Solomon. Some of those monarchs were righteous, some were wicked, and some were a mixed bag, but none were perfect, which is why we wrap things up on this album with a song about one King to rule them all. That's how God says He'll wrap things up at the end of the age, too. In the meantime, we echo the sentiments of the opening track and pray that He'll let the good guys rule. Released in early November 2024, Zedekiah, Hezekiah, Jeroboam & Other Guys featured parodies of The Beach Boys, The Beatles, The Cars, Foo Fighters, Andrew Gold, Golden Earring, Eddie Money, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Rush, The Troggs, and ZZ Top. 1774. Live: Proof That the Youth Are Revolting - Five Iron Frenzy So you like ska but the Supertones are a tad tame for your tastes? Have we got a group for you. Denver-based Christian band Five Iron Frenzy combined ska and punk with a healthy dose of humor to great success. I knew a lot of people who liked them and ApologetiX played at least one event with them (and probably more, if you count festivals) although we were on separate stages, so I eventually purchased this album. Released in November 1999, the ingeniously titled Live: Proof That the Youth Are Revolting followed two LPs (Upbeats and Beatdowns in '96 and Our Newest Album Ever! in '97) and an EP (Quantity is Job 1 in '98). Culled from 11 different concerts, it's quite entertaining, thanks to the way the eight group members interact with the audience and each other. The band sounds tight, too. There's even a cover of the Tom Jones classic "It's Not Unusual." All that and a saxophonist affectionately known as "Jeff the Girl" (a.k.a. Leanor Ortega-Till). For added charm, at the end of the final song, "Every New Day," there's blank space for about three minutes, followed by a hidden track with comments from the group and eight minutes of outtakes. Who could resist? Almost 72 minutes in length, with a total of 18 tracks (19, if you count the outtakes), Live: Proof That the Youth Are Revolting reached #190 on the Billboard 200 and #9 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart. Scott Kerr, one of the band's original guitarists, renounced his Christian faith in '98 and left the band. Drummer Andrew Verdecchio did the same in the early 2000s. The band broke up in 2003, but reformed in 2011 with Verdecchio, who still identified as an atheist. The same year, he issued a statement that read, "If you asked each of us what Five Iron's mission is you might get 8 different answers, but from my perspective this band has no agenda other than to be authentic. It's about honesty. I am interested in a pure, artistic expression, regardless of whether or not I'm of the same opinion as the artist. Reese is a gifted lyricist, and I enjoy his words even though we have very different notions about the world. He talks about struggles with faith in a way that I can relate to, and though we came out of our respective struggles with different ideas I am still moved by the music we all make together." Ortega-Till has acknowledged that there was a two-year span during which she also had severe doubts but was eventually able to "bounce back through her faith." 1775. Welcome to the Freak Show - DC Talk DC Talk's first (and only) live LP was came out two years after their multiplatinum Jesus Freak album and a year before its platinum studio follow-up, Supernatural. Released on August 26, 1997, Welcome to the Freak Show went gold (half a million copies) and reached #109 on the Billboard 200, while making it to #3 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart. A DVD version also went gold (50,000 copies). The CD, which I purchased, featured 16 tracks, including cover versions of The Beatles' "Help!" and REM's "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)." Both of those work well within the context of the concert, and the group does an admirable job with them. The other songs came from the trio's previous three albums, with one from 1990's Nu Thang ("Walls"), four from 1992's Free at Last ("Luv Is a Verb," "Jesus Is Just Alright," "Time Is ...," "The Hardway"), and nine from 1995's Jesus Freak ("So Help Me God," "Like it, Love It," "Colored People," "What If I Stumble," "In the Light," "Mind's Eye," "Day by Day," "Alas, My Love," and "Jesus Freak"). Recorded in Portland OR and Tacoma WA, Welcome to the Freak Show won the 1997 Grammy for Best Rock Gospel Album. As with most live recordings that I like, it has interesting dialogue between the songs and occasional vocal and instrumental flourishes that make the in-concert interpretations unique without straying too far from the studio standards. 1776. Solo - DC Talk Solo was a seven-song EP by DC Talk that came out just five months after Intermission: The Greatest Hits. Released on April 24, 2001, it featured two selections apiece from the individual members, plus a live cover version of U2's "40" by all three. Later that year, Michael Tait, Kevin Max, and Toby McKeehan (a.k.a. Tobymac) would each release full-length projects that included the songs on Solo, so it's a bit of sampler. I think it was an extremely clever way of launching their post-DC Talk careers because, when you all six solo cuts together along with "40," it sounds like a suitable-albeit-short follow-up to their last original studio LP, Supernatural (1998). After all, fans of the group were used to hearing the different singers take the lead on various numbers on DC Talk albums. Michael Tait's (with his new group, Tait) contributions were "Alibi" and "All You Got." Kevin Max's were "Return of the Singer" and "Be." Tobymac's were "Somebody's Watching' and "Extreme Days" (a different mix would appear on his debut LP). As you might expect, the EP leads off with the song they sang together. It's followed by both of Michael's, then both of Kevin's, and finally both of Toby's, and that's the order in which their full-length LPs would also come out (in July, August, and November, respectively). Solo peaked at #142 on the Billboard 200 but made it to #5 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart. DC Talk would reunite for a handful of concerts on in 2017 and 2019 but have not released a new album since. That may be surprising to some and not surprising to others. But who could have guessed that two of the guys would eventually become lead singers for the other two rock groups in Christian music's Big Three from DC Talk's heyday — Michael with Newsboys (2009-25) and Kevin with Audio Adrenaline (2012-14)? 1777. Empty - Tait Michael Tait became the first member of DC Talk to put out his own LP, although it technically wasn't a solo project. He formed the group Tait with Pete Stewart on guitar and Lonnie and Chad Chapin on bass and drums. Stewart had been with Christian alternative-rock band Grammatrain, and Lonnie Chapin had been playing with Petra since 1996. Released on July 3, 2001, Empty features 13 tracks, every one of them co-written by Michael, including the #1 Contemporary Christian Hit Radio (CHR) single, "All You Got." There's plenty of musical variety ... none of the songs seem redundant, although there are certainly moments reminiscent of DC Talk ... not that that's a bad thing. Everything is quite pleasant to listen to, but my favorites are probably "Alibi," "Bonded," "Spy," "Altars," "Talk About Jesus," "Carried Away," "Empty," and "Unglued." a wistful, beautiful, piano-driven ballad inspired by Michael's father, brother, and sister, who all died within the span of six months. That would have been the album's closer, but, after a minute or so of silence, there's a hidden track — a rocking jam that lasts for about four and half minutes. It's the heaviest thing on Empty, and it lightens the mood. Moreover, there's also a very funny hidden track before the CD even begins, but you have to rewind the CD 6:48 into negative numbers to get to it. Those who make that extra effort will be treated to Michael doing hilarious impersonations of various pastors on answering-machine messages. Of course, you may not have a CD player anymore, let alone the CD, so I found it on YouTube for you HERE. Anybody who was familiar with DC Talk's catalogue already knew Michael had a great voice, but listening to this album gave me a better idea of what qualities, nuances, tendencies, and influences he brought to that trio's overall sound. I mean, his vocal style is obviously different than Kevin's and Toby's, but, there would be moments when I'd hear something on this disc and think, "O.K., so he's the reason such-and-such DC Talk song sounds like that." Empty reached #10 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart. In 2003, Tait released a follow-up LP, Lose This Life. That same year, Michael played the title role in the touring Christian rock opera, !HERO, co-starring Mark Stuart of Audio Adrenaline and Rebecca St. James. After the tour ended, !HERO was released on CD and DVD. In 2009, Michael succeeded Peter Furler as lead singer for another immensely popular Christian band, Newsboys, and continued in that role for a decade and a half before announcing in early 2025 that he'd would be stepping down. Unfortunately, after writing this article, I discovered there was a major controversy surrounding that. I won't elaborate here, but it's not hard to find more info online. Determining the accuracy of the info isn't as easy, so I'd rather not comment. I’ll just hope and pray for the best. 1778. Stereotype Be - Kevin Max The second stand-alone LP by a DC Talk member hit the stores on August 28, 2001, as Kevin Max released Stereotype Be. It's the least overtly Christian of three, yet ironically the only one that didn't break into the Billboard 200, the secular standard-setter of the music industry. Stereotype Be did reach #12 on that publication's Top Christian albums chart, however. As I recall, Bill "Moose" Rieger, who had just officially become ApologetiX's drummer five months earlier, was a fan of Stereotype Be. I can't speak for Bill, but I'll bet part of the appeal stemmed from the fact that it was produced by Adrian Belew, best known as the frontman, second guitarist, and even sometimes drummer for King Crimson (1981-2013), although he also worked with everyone from Frank Zappa to Jars of Clay. Bill used to frequently wear a t-shirt with Belew's picture on it. Most folks had no clue who it was, because the shirt didn't say and they'd never heard of Belew anyway. Bill probably also appreciated K-Max's penchant for poetry, something near and dear to Mr. Rieger's heart, as he was the only ApX drummer to ever carry a book of poems on the road with him. Kevin wrote five of the selections on Stereotype Be and co-wrote the other 10 (one is a hidden track), including two singles that made the Contemporary Christian Hit Radio charts, "Existence" (#12 CHR) and "Be" (#18 CHR). The instrumentation is very interesting and almost entrancing at times — a number of the tunes have an eastern, world-music flavor while still retaining a pop/rock feel — and the lyrics are evocative, erudite, and poetic. My favorites would be "Return of the Singer," "Angel With No Wings," "Deconstructing Venus," the Beatle-esque "Shaping Space," and the aforementioned singles. That being said, while the words are intellectually stimulating, they don't move me much on a spiritual level. I've read that Kevin was influenced by Bono of U2, and I can easily believe that, reading his lyrics and listening to his singing style (including, but not limited to, some vocal nuances on "Dead End Moon," "Blind," and "Her Game"). When I still hadn't found what I was looking for, I loved U2, not just because of their innovative music but because of the "spirituality" of their overall message. I just prefer things to be stated a little more clearly now when I'm listening to music marketed to Christian audiences. Right or wrong, I have different expectations from a member of DC Talk than I do from an artist who claims no religious affiliation. I don't mean that every song has to be sermon; I'm fine if they talk about their everyday lives. The tunes on Stereotype Be just got a little too mystically fuzzy for my personal tastes, but Kevin is one heck of a singer and a skilled poet who can express himself however he chooses. Sadly, like far too many popular figures from that era, he now identifies as an exvangelical. 1779. Momentum - TobyMac TobyMac was the last of the three DC Talk members to put out an album of his own, but he wound up having the most success, ramping up the rap in a return to his roots. Released on November 6, 2001, Momentum sold half a million copies and went to #110 on the Billboard 200 while reaching #8 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart, launching an acclaimed solo career that's still going strong. Long before hearing the entire thing, I bought a few of the most popular cuts from it on iTunes, because ApologetiX was scheduled to open for TobyMac at a concert in Sebastian FL on March 4, 2007. We did the show, but I never got to meet him, although our soundman Micah Clausen did. The opener on Momentum, "Get This Party Started," kicks things off in a fashion similar to Kid Rock's "Bawitaba" on his Devil Without a Cause album. "Get This Party Started," "Yours," "Extreme Days," and the title track are full-throttle rockers that also remind me of Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park. There are 14 other less-hectic tracks, six of which are mostly funny interludes that break things up yet keep things moving: "Toby's Mac," "Tru-Dog," "Quiet Storm," "Triple Skinny," "Don't Bring Me Down," and "Afterword." Three of the remaining songs are cleverly built upon classic hits from '60s, 70s, and '80s: "What's Goin' Down," based on "For What It's Worth (Stop, Hey What's That Sound)" by The Buffalo Springfield; "Do You Know," based on "Theme From Mahogany (Do You Know Where You're Going To)" by Diana Ross; and "Somebody's Watching," based on "Somebody's Watching Me" by Rockwell. That last one was the first selection I ever heard from Momentum, and "Irene" was the second, as they each appeared on WOW compilation CDs I owned. My favorite tracks are three that I haven't already mentioned, "Love Is in the House," "J Train" (featuring Kirk Franklin), and "In the Air," a well-written number about sharing Christ with an old friend. Throughout the entire album, TobyMac keeps things socially relevant while making no effort to camouflage his faith in the Lord. In "Wonderin' Why," he sums it up this way: "I'm talkin' God in my hip-hop, if not, then my show stops." Earlier in that same song, he includes this humorous exchange: "Well, somebody told me that you're takin' a break — a sabbatical from rhymin' on the records that you make. A little birdie said that wasn't the case. They blamed your exodus on DC partners Kevin and Tait — 'Hold up, I didn't say all that!'" I'll conclude with this: What if The Beatles' "White Album" had been a three-record set instead of two? I think about that when I consider what might have happened if all the songs on Momentum, Tait's Empty LP, and Kevin Max's Stereotype Be had been combined and distributed evenly and intermittently over a three-CD set. Maybe it would have been more like The Clash's triple album, Sandinista!, but with less filler. As it is, Momentum is probably my favorite of the individual DC Talkers' debut discs. |
