Better than lying about your lead singer retiring to "devote time to youth ministry" when you really mean "is addicted to various substances and having affairs", as another popular CCM group from the '90s did. "Disbanded" can be a nebulous term in an era when the average release schedule is once every 3 years or so as opposed to the 2-3 albums a year the Beatles were pulling. But yeah, the Talk was dead once everyone started contributing lyrics (I'm looking at you artiste emo boy Kevin). |

One of the things I always found funny about the CCM scene as opposed to the secular music field- in secular music you're a sell-out if you change your sound to either be more "relevant" or chase after record sales- so DC Talk would have been sell-outs circa Jesus Freak when they abandoned the hip-hop stylings that made them famous for their pseudo-grunge and TobyMac would merely (from what little of the post dc talk I've heard) be returning to form. In CCM you're a sell-out the second you start getting songs in movies and getting played on secular stations (and dc Talk would still have been the sell-outs- "Just Between You and Me" was a fairly decent hit on top 40 radio). MxPx, on the other hand, are sell-outs no matter which way you slice it. |

Most non-underground Christian artists have become sellouts, much like any popular artist. I heard Plumb's latest song and I am tres disappointed. It's so trite. She is much better than that.
Haven't listened to Rebecca St. James's new album, though, but I love her more out of nostalgia (she was my first favorite CCM artist -- Christian lyrics and techno-ish background music, loved the combination!).
I love how she published a book about men when she just got married. Don't get me started on that. I rolled my eyes when I heard about that. Sometimes people will do anything to make money. She should have sat on that project for a couple of years.
^THIS. I haven't listened to an RSJ album since Transform. I also loved how the men she interviewed were men she knew, all from the same demographic. Then she had the nerve to get up on TV and say what she said.T_T Lost a lot of respect for her for that... But I digress. What was this thread about? Things you miss about Protestantism? Alas, unfortunately I'm not (yet) Orthodox. |

The earlier rap albums would be entirely too easy. The Jesus Freak album I'm sure has been done. The Supernatural album couldn't be awesome no matter what you do to it. |

I loved Supernatural.  And it would have to be the earlier rap albums because Jesus Freak and Supernatural have both (not in their entirety) been covered by other bands as part of a "tribute to DC Talk" album. |

I loved Supernatural. I'm sorry, what part of "I'm a crotchety old man who thinks their last album wasn't as good as the first four and they really peaked at 'Nu Thang' anyway and you kids better get offa my lawn"  are you not understanding?  |

It's a good song. I can name some songs that I really like from some CCM bands and artists. Problem is when you listen to all of their albums, they just kind of mush together.

I think Toby Mac does a lot of producing stuff now. He has recently helped and old friend of mine become the "next big thing" in Christian music. Her name is Jamie Grace. Number one hit on Christian radio right now. We went to a small, private Christian school together. She once made a video on her youtube (her channel also kinda helped spark her career) making fun of the music me and my buddy make. This was mainly because we spent a lot of time making fun of her... guess shes getting the last laugh now...  |

They're from the city about 10 miles up the road from me, so you'd think they'd have some type of hometown edge and I'd like them... but nope, could never get into them. I did like the Lesser Lights of Heaven DVD though. |

I almost shouted, "Hey, it's one of my favorite CCM singers!" but declined to do so once she wasn't really saying anything accurate about American politics. I don't know how she got in. |

The only contemporary Christian music I can stand is made by occultists so maybe not really Christian. Here's Current 93's "The Bloodbells Chime."Oh, and then there's Yabby You (are the 1970's contemporary enough?) |

Contemporary christian music - The bane of Christians, a big reason we're made fun of, and with a few exceptions, the worst music ever created.
Sadly, those knuckleheads DC talk formed here in Lynchburg at Liberty (most of em have houses here too) so you see their crap all over the place here.
Where's Bach when you need him?

Dont act like Jesus Freak isnt your jam!!!! Kevin Max has one of the most impressive voices ever. Although, lately he seems hes gotten a little weird.... Kinda gone off the deep end. |

I wanna hear the screamo or metalcore version of DC Talk. Twould be awesome.
YES. The earlier rap albums would be entirely too easy. The Jesus Freak album I'm sure has been done. The Supernatural album couldn't be awesome no matter what you do to it.
I loved Supernatural. And it would have to be the earlier rap albums because Jesus Freak and Supernatural have both (not in their entirety) been covered by other bands as part of a "tribute to DC Talk" album. I loved Supernatural too! |

You can keep the lot of it. There's some thats not bad but its so rare I wont even entertain the idea of listening to something new as I dont want to waste the 20-30 mins of my life.

Pretty sure God thinks it's horrid as well. You can keep the lot of it. Still with you. There's some thats not bad but its so rare... You lost me. |

I listened to that CD so many times when I got it. Saw them in person one of those years shortly before they did separate acts. Aren't all of their newer ones their separate acts, Tait, Toby Mac, and Kevin Max? |

Aren't all of their newer ones their separate acts, Tait, Toby Mac, and Kevin Max? Yes, but I think Toby's is the only successful one. Kevin was doing pretty well, as he deserves because is voice is so phenomenal, but as i mentioned earlier hes gotten really weird... Not sure whats up. |
