The 14-track album features some of the band's biggest songs, including "How He Loves," "O Praise Him (All This For A King)," "Everything Glorious," as well as three new remixed tracks from Family Force 5, Capital Kings and The Digital Age (consisting of former DC*B members Mike D., Jack Parker, Mark Waldrop and B-Wack). The album concludes with an all-new track from CROWDER, "This I Know."

Critics are already hailing the new Essential Collection as "brilliant," "unashamed," and a "solid collection of hits." Here's a snippet of the recognition:

The trendsetting worship troupe drops its first-ever greatest hits compilation and showcases Crowder's complacency shattering lyrics. - CCM

"Lyrically, Crowder is just unashamed of Christ as ever. It should be a fine new chapter in one of CCM's most recognizable names… This is a solid collection of hits." - New Release Tuesday

"No band in worship music was more creative and pushed boundaries of what could be considered worshipful music. For a career, David Crowder*Band earns five stars hands down." - Jesus Freak Hideout

"This is a brilliant greatest hits album, with every song being as strong as the next." - Louder Than the Music

"The best collection of music from one of my favorite Christian bands of all time… a great set of remixes celebrating familiar tunes and a fun sneak peak at the Crowder of the future." - More Than Dodgeball (Blog)

"If you have never owned a DCB record, this is the right place to start." - Breathecast

"The best part about it is that it includes the studio version of "You Alone," which hasn't been available for a long time! - Where There's a Will (Blog)
