So is this album better than Chromatica? I haven’t listened yet

[godsmonster 14,347]

the way both Abracadabra AND Shadow Of A Man needed a chorus repeat at the end

the way i made my own...

Just finished the album and I am so ... out of words. I don't know where I should even begin...

 

Die With A Smile as the album closure makes sense more than I thought. This is literally a fuck you for these bitches who been whining & bitching about her putting this song in the final tracklist for months. And no, its not the song just makes sense, IT'S CLEVER AF and here is my theory:

 

MAYHEM as a whole body of work is actually a "dream" or a "nightmare" whatever you might call it, the "mayhem" is  a fantasy, a movie playing in her mind, given birth by streams of consciousness and went all over the place, and we all watching it with her. No beginnings, no ends, nothing makes sense, you go in and out for night after night, like an acid trip and/or ...just a sedated sleep - which starts with a "Disease" (you're so tortured when you sleep) that needs a cure to treat the pain. And that journey reflects throughout the whole album as a "dream"

 

Thats why Die With A Smile in the end of the record makes sense so much, the first line we hear is "I just woke up from a dream" - literally all 13 previous tracks were realm of dreams. Blade of Grass is like a haunting ending of a movie, DWAS is the credit right after. And in my mind, Blade Of Grass is kinda a very dark, haunting, sad song, its like a tragic faux ending where the main character kept saying "wrap a blade of grass amd we'll make it last" when everything is kinda too late - WHICH then, right after, the first line of DWAS is "I just  woke up from a dream" implying that wasnt the real ending, in fact, DWAS is, and its a truly happy ending in real life where our main characters once again come clean with their feelings and affirm "even if the world is ending i wanna be next to you"

 

The fact that Bruno Mars as the featured artist and he started to sing before Gaga went in is genius too... its like we all been diving deep in the dream in the sleep or even a bad coma with her to that point, and then someone else there woke her up just in time and remind her that she is not alone in this journey, and neither are we.
 

Gonna review the album in track by track later... ugh i just need time to process this.

[Fireffie 3,803]

I never listened to Gaga that much except her hits so I hit play just out of curiosity and OH MY GOOOOD, finally someone who makes a fun album!!! It’s soooo good, my favourite so far is Perfect Celebrity

dont hold your breath the chromatica target bonus track is lowkey lost media at this point

i have those bonus tracks except for the other remix of stupid love

[Rocket0212 2,129]

Mess...so I came back to this album today with an open mind, not expecting grunge industrial sound (and no I'm not watching each and every Gaga interview where she told that album sounds NOTHING like singles) and I kinda like it even less than yesterday. 

I know well that I would never listen to Vanish Into You - How Bad section ever again if it wasn't Gaga. Just bored me to death. But I forced myself to like 70% of Tortured Poets so I'll try the same with Mayhem (didn't work for Cowboy Carter). But I start to notice a pattern that maybe I'm not into pop girls like I was before.

Wow this analysis sounds super accurate, Gaga herself said that there were dreamy tracks on the album. Mayhem is like another dimension 

[GeminiLanaFan 50,096]

Listened to it finally.

full disclosure : I’m not the biggest Gaga fan at all, I love her voice but I don’t really connect with most of her songs since Born This Way, but it’s almost always the case with pop.

 

Not a bad album at all. But my main concern is how not representative at all of the whole album the singles are  Even Garden of Eden, with its snippet used for race cars, is nowhere near 80s like most of the album is. It’s almost as if Disease, Abracadabra (although it has some 80s influences), Garden of Eden and Die With a Smile are an EP (Blade of Grass also could be there) and the rest of the album is 80s Mayhem. 
 

That being said, there are good pop gems on there : Vanish Into You, How Bad Do You Want Me. 
 

But yeah, Killah is a fucking turd 💩 

[lakeemmahottie 1,949]

Me being the only person who enjoys Killah... I expected better tho ngl but anyway

 

So can someone point me to where the nine inch nails inspiration is? I'm failing to see it tbh. But good on gaga from taking notes from a legend like trent 

[ChaoticLipster 25,037]

Killah - one of the worst songs I’ve heard. Blade of grass also boring as fuck with annoying vocals. 
My top 5 

Abracadabra 

Perfect Celebrity 

Garden Of Eden

LoveDrug

Shadow of a Man

Absolutely. It’s her best album since Artpop imo.

[Just Cherry 3,864]
