In some areas I think Relapse is better than Recovery...as far as storytelling, lyrical skill, and production goes I feel Relapse is ahead. But Recovery is a better collection of Eminem songs to me...it's actually pretty fucking solid front to back. It sounds more like an Eminem album than people give it credit for.
I like to switch between the two albums often. I love both for different reasons. I've been listening to Relapse quite heavily lately and tracks are growing on me again. It's just as an album, I feel Recovery is better than Relapse and is ultimately more important in his career. Relapse was more of a way for him to find his footing back in the rap game.
