After Hearing Recovery I Listened to TES Again...

shit, honestly I never thought TES could get beaten but Recovery is probably gonna end up being my favorite Eminem album...just seems perfect for my age and my attitude towards life these days and the tracks get better and better so i'm already past the initial shock hype

TES is just too good, it can't possibly be beaten. I mean this album has like 13 great songs, which is simply unprecedented for anyone but Eminem. And TES still has more great songs, not even measuring the greatness of each song individually which makes it just no contest. If you wanted to combine both into one album there will be more TES on it. That's just how it is but Recovery is just amazing. If TES ever gets beaten it will have to be a collection or something IMO.

ok so i had recovery on repeat last 2 days,and really liked it,amazing album.

i decided to listen to TES again,after not hearing it for a while,and after hearing it again,im sorry to say,
Recovery doesn't come close.

While Recovery's Lyrical content, is amazing,
its missing the passion,the wit,beats,and layers TES has,Recovery kind of sounds like Em is just rapping on a bunch of Remixes done by other artists,

what made Eminem,stand out as an artist,besides for his writing skills,was his unique style,
which feels like its missing on Recovery,

Recovery Is an amazing Rap album,but a sub par Eminem album,it also doesnt have the mainstream appeal, That TES had. I think part of the problem is,that Eminem has always been at his best when he had something he wanted to say, or a point to prove,thats why TES was so great,he's really speaking from the heart,i dont get that feeling as much on Recovery,i dont know if its just because hes changed,or he doesnt feel he has to say something,or a mix of both.

Bottom line is, Recovery is a Great album,but doesnt come close to TES,or even MMLP.

next album i hope he does the entire thing himself,from production an on.

you couldn't say it better man....I agree 100% with you....Recovery is great but not as classic as MMLP and TES.

comparing TES and Recovery like comparing big, creamy DD tits (TES) to succulent, pert C cup tits (Recovery). Everyone has different tastes. That being said imma take those DD

I dont even wanna go back and listen to TES, now. Just thinking about Til I Collapse and Soldier is enough to make me realise how much Rvy pales in comparison to it.
