Eminem: Encore

[trdavisca]

Eminem's new album called Encore came out on November 12th(yesterday) and did anybody here buy it? If so what is it like, is it a good cd at all? I like the songs just lose it and mosh a nice bit, so anyway if someone has it could you also give me the list of songs that are on the cd as well? thanks

This CD isnt good at all, only songs that are even listenable are "Yellow Brick Road" & "Like Toy Soldiers"

Easily Em's worst effort yet on a album.

I didn't like it at all. Too much of that stereotypical Aftermath sound for my liking. I liked the D-12 song, and that's pretty much it for Encore. Critics haven't been too kind either.

[Lord Nibbler]

If you liked "Just Lose It", you might like the album. If you're sane, however, you probably won't.

[Benji]

I quite like "Mosh", but I haven't heard all of it, what I have is severely average.

[Numbahs]

It is TEH SUCK~!

i didnt say it for everyone in the world...he asked "Is it a good CD at all" so I replied truthfully.

To say that the CD "isn't good at all" is saying that it's a known fact that it sucks and that NOBODY will EVER like it, which isn't true. Yeah, it might not be the best CD in the world, but it's not like he's trying to win over fans, as he's already got millions. So, try saying that in your opinion it sucks, 'cause it just makes it look like he will NEVER like it, when you have no idea as to what his tastes are.

I like "Mosh" Not too keen on the other single though.

[livid]

Then you say something along the lines of "I don't think it's a good CD", not "It's not a good CD at all". You the see the difference in the two statements? And I'm not an idiot, i know it's an opinion, but some people don't have enough commmon sense to recognize the difference, was just making sure it didn't happen here, because personally, I don't think the CD is THAT bad.

[fineintent]

It's called hyperbole - surely you've once said something along the lines of "That's the funniest thing I've ever seen" or "Worst movie ever", when you haven't sincerely meant it.

As for my opinion on the CD, someone was playing it at school and I couldn't get into it - not awful, but far from good. I haven't really enjoyed Eminem since the first album though, despite liking about 5 tracks from the last 2.

I think it's a good CD but it's definately not better than his past three albums but that is to be expected because he really can't keep going over the same subjects like in his first two albums (being poor, having a deadbeat mom/dad, still hating Kim.. etc). I did expect it to be better than what it was but at least it wasn't Grand Champ.

[tristy]

Only good songs are Yellowbrick Road, Never Enough, Mosh, Puke, Encore, Rain Man, Crazy In Love & One Shot 2 Shot.

I wouldn't buy it, though. It's worth a download, but not spending $15 on it.

[Benji]

Slightly off subject, but how is hyperbole pronounced?

Oh, and I heard a few more songs of the album, it remains severely average, it's worth a listen and your cash if you are a fan of Eminem, but if you aren't a fan of his and are a hard fan of the genre I wouldn't recomend it.

Hyper-bol-ee

Although I used to pronounce it hyper-bowl, like monster-truck-announcer stylee, to piss off my English teacher.

[Benji]

So, it sounds like "hyper-volley" only with a b not a v or am I reading that wrong?

[Docpepper]

I bought the cd and i really like it so far( haven't listened to it all yet) so far i like rainman , Puke , toy soilders , just lose it and a couple others . its definetly worth the buy

[livid]

hy-perb-alli is how it's pronounced, but it's close to how dragon put it too

EDIT: Yeah, i overreacted getting on the guy, but i wasn't in the greatest moods earlier, sorry.
