    Chaotic Progress NEW EM - APRIL 5th.

    Dec 18, 2017
    I know these threads are annoying, but seriously give this version of Revival a listen, it flows perfectly:

    1. Walk on Water
    2. Believe
    3. Chloraseptic
    4. Untouchable
    5. Heat
    6. Offended
    7. Revival (Interlude)
    8. Like Home
    9. In Your Head
    10. Castle
    11. Arose

    That's a short 9/10... Maybe - classic, to me.

    Tracks 1 to 4 already flow perfectly, no alteration needed. "River" is the first hiccup then things get really messy until the perfect flow of the final 3 songs as everybody has noted.

    The "Revival Interlude" was actually a brilliant way to segway into "Like Home" and introduce a new section of the album. Makes it feel somewhat theatrical. But it was used terribly. Because it beautifully introduced "Like Home" but then the album dragged on, and on, and the placement was f---ing abysmal - going from spacey pop rock to southern silly rock rap and back again. What the f--- is in Rubin's head with this placement?? It's so bad.

    The above placement works. "Heat" flows nicely after "Untouchable" with its vibe somewhat referencing the feel of the first half of "Untouchable" and Em's tone being similar, "Offended" follows fine from that... then his supersonic outro is like the apex of his rappity'ness section of the album... then comes the interlude segway - perfectly setting-up the point of the cover and theme with "Like Home" and also now into the 'emotional' part of the album and then the album powerful trails off as it does.

    Seriously, there was a great album here even without any additional songs.

    Overstuffed. Compromised. Mess.

    I feel it's a great opener though. To set up "Believe" and it only makes sense - as an opener, and the piano and violin, and Em's tone on both songs work together great. But I agree I don't love it as a song, but I'm happy with it as an intro to a 'proper' album for once.

    Offended is dope as f---.

    Bad Husband is okay, I could live with it, maybe after Like Home. But sick of that format.

    Because it doesn't belong anywhere near the other songs fam.

    It's Relapse.

    I love the song by itself, but it does not fit AT ALL with anything else. It's a pure anomaly.

    Both of those songs ruin the album. Drag it down with that d--- format we've been hearing for 7 years, it sounds like 1 giant repetition.

    Well you do have a point here EminemBase. However, the difference between Encore and Revival is that Encore's filler songs were kinda terrible. Whereas Revival's filler songs aren't really bad, they are just a mixed bag.

    I feel Encore would have been a classic if not for the fillers too. But at least Revival's fillers are still sorta fun songs. Overall, the album is solid. And what keeps it from being a true classic is the lack of cohesiveness, which you always advocate.

    Also, I would add Framed and Bad Husband to the album and possible a couple of skits. Throw in the rest on a bonus disc or deluxe edition. Wouldn't a SUPER short album.

    I wouldn't say Revival's filler songs are fun fam. They all sound the same. A drag.

    Framed is the most obscure unfitting song on the album.

    Good by itself. Absurd on the album.

    Bad Husband is okay, Heat is fun, Untouchable is one of the best tracks.

    I’d rather have an unfitting song like Framed than have it locked away in the vault never to be heard again.
