A Christian rock band that combines melodic hard rock with a dynamic pop sensibility, touches of grunge and power-pop. Tight, distinctive harmonies and a tart, sarcastic sense of humor, as well as a lack of sanctimony set them apart from not only generic Christian rockers, but generic mainstream/MTV rock as well. Influences range from Sugar and Smashing Pumpkins to Queen and the Raspberries.
30-plus years after John Lennon proclaimed the Beatles more popular than Jesus, a generation of musicians who weren't even born at the time bring the Man Upstairs back into the conscience of the worlds' youth. DC Talk began life as a group of college friends rappin' for Jesus and developed into one of the '90s' most successful Christian rock groups. On SUPERNATURAL, they continue to expand their sound and spread their love of Jesus across the world. Mixing rock, R&B, funk, solid songcraft and a slick production typical of more secular pop vocal groups, DC Talk brings new meaning and respect to the phrase "Jesus freak."
Those who want a positive message in their music but are put off by overly preachy lyrics will be impressed and pleasantly surprised by DC Talk. On first listen, the uninitiated might think this was a collection of love songs to a wife or girlfriend rather than odes to the creator. But delving deeper you discover that they are sincere in their beliefs. And rather than set out to convert the faithless, they hope that their music and conviction will be what leads others to discover their own spirituality.
Industry Reviews
3 Stars (out of 5) - ...a likably earnest pile of heavenly jazz percussion, pogoable Green Day-like drum rolls and Nirvana-esque power chords; nods to rock royalty from Queen to Prince...and lyrics that...can be read as both sacred and secular...
