Festival Flashbacks #1 - Eminem

Post categories:

ATL|11:26 UK time, Wednesday, 21 April 2010

Yes! It's the return of our occasional Things That Make You Go Hum series that flags up lost gems... but this time, with a festival twist!

ACT: Eminem



TRACK: Superman (2002)



FESTIVAL: Oxegen



CHANCES OF HEARING IT: Reasonable - he played it last time in Punchestown...

ATL is currently a little concerned about how Eminem's inclusion on the bill will affect the crowd at Oxegen this summer. We reckon having the world's biggest hip hop icon headline could mean a fair few Oxegen virgins weigh in, the type of crowd who may be unaware of... good festival etiquette. Naturally, we hope such fears prove unfounded.

But don't get us wrong - it's still great that he's playing. Ten years in the spotlight has made for quite a few standout tracks. But while daft, cartoon theatrics make for his biggest moments, we reckon Eminem is at his best on dark, moodier tracks like Superman (from fourth album The Eminem Show).
