Not at all what I expected Submitted on: 2009-11-18 |

| I heard DCB version of How He Loves Us and expected to find this album with a similar type of style. I'm sorry to all of you die hard fans, but this is nothing like I expected. It's got way too many techno sounds on it. Not for me. I don't expect to get many positive review ratings for this, but it is what it is. I gave it 3 stars because of "How He Loves Us". I have played that song 20+ times in the last couple of days. It stirs my soul. There are a few good songs on here though. I do like "All Around Me" and "We Are Loved" is growing on me. I suggest listening to the samples before buying the whole album. |

When I first popped in 'Church Music,' I thought, "What in the world is this??!? At that point, I was thinking in disappointment, "I thought that I'd really like this CD."
You see, upon a quick listening scan of all the songs, all I could initially decipher was a synthesizer and beats, and I was actually put in remembrance of Mannheim Steamroller, of which I am not a fan.
But, knowing me and music, I knew that I had to KEEP listening, to actually hear the words, and by the third time I heard 'Church Music,' I loved it.
It's like a really, REALLY, good Christ-centered mixed tape, where most of the songs endings and beginning blend into each other. The beats and mixes are wonderfully unpredictable and in full range, reminiscent in style from Roger and Zapp, Mr. Mister, Depeche Mode, rock, metal-ish, techno, with ballads, but they are still quite unique, and they all work, well.
The lyrics are abstract at times, but I find them all terribly sincere, as how can anyone truly objectify or articulate Who GOD is, how wonderful He is, His beauty...
More than the beats and mixes, much more, is the fact that when I hear this DC*B CD, I am put into a mindset focusing on the majesty and glory of Christ, His beauty, compassion, and love. I find myself, even while driving, just wanting to fall on my face and worship in adoration, awe and gratitude.
Powerful. DC*B reminds me that music unlike traditional "church music" can still lead/help us to enter in to "that place" of worship.
When I hear music like this, it makes me think that the artist(s) has truly been spending time with the Lord, themselves, worshiping, in His presence.
Well done, DC*B. May the Lord continue to bless you all. |

Crowder style Submitted on: 2009-11-13 |

| The David Crowder Band has once again made a remarkable record...is this all these guys know how to do? Nice to hear something left of center musically that also praises God. If the album doesn't hit you first off, listen again. Track 10 is by far one of the most eloquent pieces of music heard in a long time. |

| I have been a David Crowder band fan for years, and have enjoyed all of their music, so when i purchased this album i had reasonably high expectations. I was blown away, this is by far their best yet, the engineering of the songs to flow one to the next is incredible and the amount of heartfelt worship is amazing. With a progression in style from previous albums, this one takes everything to the next level, i would recommend it to anyone. |

| DCB was my favorite worship music. But this album is just not what I'm used to from this great worship band. For some reason they've now moved their music to "techno-dance." Almost every song is heavy on the digital techno sounds with a driving synthetic dance beat. It causes the songs to run together with no differentiation. If this is the direction of their music, sadly it will be the last DCB album I buy. |
