I also gave it a try but I definitely dont like it at all... even the best songs are average to me.

Yep. I'm even going back on my statement that some of the tracks are keepers. Not only will the album not stay in my rotation but none of the songs will either.
Sometimes you still have some keepers on otherwise disappointing albums. A good example of that was Xzibit's Man Vs Machine album back in the day—was his first fail of his career—yet it had 3 or 4 bangers I always hung onto like "Symphony", "What A Mess", "Say My Name", "Losing Your Mind" (and even "Release Date" and "Heart of Man" stayed in my rotation)

I actually like the two Rick Rubin tracks that have got a lot of criticism - Remind Me and Heat. They are catchy and light-hearted, which is lacking in most of Eminem's output nowadays, plus it helps that they were mixed by Dr. Dre too. This albums gets weighed down by a few tracks in the middle, which if they were left off, the album would be much better for.
Some of the mixing is off on Revival as well. The interlude to Remind Me ends with a little bit of the drums for the actual track that follows, which I thought Dre would have taken care of (its not the end of the world obviously, but you do notice it when the album is being played on shuffle). There is a track where the vocals are very poorly mixed (Tragic Endings), and when you compare it to, for example, Untouchable, there is a massive difference. I've read elsewhere too that there is one track, I forget which one, that was most likely recorded around the 'Recovery' era, because you can tell by Eminem's vocal style and delivery.
