This was the first-ever greatest hits package from dc Talk, the 1980's forerunners and pioneers of much of the contemporary Christian rock and rap movement. Intermission: the Greatest Hits marks a hiatus by Toby McKeehan, Michael Tait and Kevin Max that continues today as they each pursuing solo careers. They left fans with this 10-song collection to console themselves during the break (when will it ever end?). Leave it up to dc Talk to take one of their past #1 hits, and transform it into a new #1 hit. "Say the Words" was on their 1992 breakthrough album Free At Last. Remixed by Matt Bronleewe, it charted once again at #1, and what a song it is. Intermission also brings two new dc Talk songs. "Chance" is a slower song that can be looked over, but "SugarCoat It" is dc Talk extreme, with the energy driven beats and Toby's "screaming" rap. This album is wonderful. The best from the best creates a great record. dc Talk has always and will continue to be one of the leading groups in Christian music.
