bacardimayne Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Relapse and Recovery are related in my mind. It was a simple mistake. Get off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estranged Reality Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 I think I'm going to give you a warning for this debacle, bacardi. You clearly deserve it. You should be thoroughly ashamed of yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bacardimayne Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Seriously though, I can't stop repeating "No Love". Not even the gayness of Lil Wayne can make it a bad song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estranged Reality Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 "You're Never Over" and "Going Through Changes" are my favourites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumpin' Jack Flash Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 (edited) I've only listened to a few songs on YouTube. I just can't bring myself to download it yet. So far I only dig the song with the Ozzy sample. Then again, I've listened to a grand total of 4 songs. The Pink song left me traumatized Edited June 12, 2010 by Jumpin' Jack Flash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estranged Reality Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 I used to be a pretty heavy drug user, and I guess that's why "Going Through Changes" hit me a lot harder than I expected. Even though it's a very personal song, a lot of what he's rapping about connected with me; I think it's a good companion piece to "Beautiful" (the only great song from Relapse). Ditto for "You're Never Over" - that one is even more personal since it's related to a specific person he knew, but it still moved me quite a bit.

chevelle Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I'm a bit of a sucker for the Rihanna song...I love her voice on that track, and it fits quite well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely an upgrade on "Rockstar 101", lol.Also, I've decided that this album is better than The Eminem Show. A lot better.

Black Sabbath Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I really like this album, but the choruses are fucking annoying. Especially on tracks like On Fire and Won't Back Down. Those hooks make me wants to smash my face into a wall. And the Proof track is good, but the way he sings the hook is annoying, as well.

He just sounds like he's trying to hard to be sentimental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inthisriver Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Man, the reviews coming back on this are not good. I was expecting mixed reviews but they all seem to be pretty bad at this point. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bacardimayne Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 People giving this album bad reviews are fucked in the head. This is better than any rap I've heard in years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estranged Reality Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) Pitchfork gave it 2.8/10.http://www.metacritic.com/music/artists/eminem/recoveryThat's a worse score than Relapse.How is this possible?

I've only listened to about a quarter of this album but what I've heard is great. Listen to Eminem's verse on this song, nobody in the mainstream is even close to him right nowhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVtjxTIpmn8Also the first song on the album kicks a lot off ass Edited June 19, 2010 by shotgunblues1978 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobodys_Fault Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 http://www.metacritic.com/music/artists/eminem/recoveryThat's a worse score than Relapse.How is this possible?Jesus wasn't expecting that. The metacritic score I mean... couldn't give a shit about the pitchfork one. They gave Drake's newest an 8.4 and it really wasn't that good.I'm gonna hold off reading any of the reviews. Am really enjoying this album at the minute and don't want to start noticing the flaws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
