Relapse is so much better now.

Postby forgot_about_matt » Apr 15th, '10, 00:00

This is a dope fucking album. I'm at "Same Song & Dance", and the album is kind of blowing my mind. I always hated "Bagpipes from Baghdad", but I finally understand it. It symbolizes the decaying of Em's mind. That explains all the random shit! I was also never big on "Same Song & Dance" and now I think it's fire.

Now I'm at "We Made You". Lyrics are still dumb, but it sounds decent. I'd have replaced it with "Elevator".

It was a great album from day one to me.

And it would of always been a perfect little Em album without CAB. I'll clarify, I don't mean it would of been THEE perfect Eminem album or A perfect album. But for what it is, conceptually and everything, without that stupid track fucking it up, it would of been spot-on. Nicely one-themed.

I remember when it leaked and everyone was spunking over almost every track. Even non-Em fans saying every track fire etc. then they all listen to each other like sheep over the accent(s) etc. and suddenly it's a pile of crap.

I wasn't disappointed with it and I definitely wouldn't want to be without those tracks. But in the same breath, I'm really happy that he's changed further and I have no idea what Recovery will be like.

I always liked Relapse. I still do. Except Crack A Bottle and Old Time's Sake.

I love "Crack a Bottle", but that's how I feel about "We Made You".

"Stay Wide Awake" is a PERFECT example of horrorcore.

Crack A Bottle >>>>>>>>>>> We Made You


No chance. 50's TERRIBLE verse brings the entire feel of the song down. It's the closing verse and by far the worst verse on the whole album.

"We Made You" at least fits the theme of the album, you can tell it was made in those sessions and it's not a bad song. It's only the fact a stupid video was made with it and it makes the legacy of it feel cheesy in your mind.

But the flow / wordplay was actually very good. And totally fitting with the rest.

It has always been great for me. Even, We Made You is growing on me.

I hope Recover lives to its massive hype.

Crack A Bottle is Em's worst song ever IMO. We Made You is 100 times better.
