Lady Gaga

[ChaoticLipster 25,047]

It’s her best album since ARTPOP

 

1. The Fame/Fame Monster

2. Born This Way 

3. Mayhem

4. ARTPOP

5. Chromatica

6. Joanne 

I count The Fame and Monster together because they go hand in hand for me, I don’t consider them separate.

[Make me your Dream Life 90,339]

the way Nothing On But The Radio would just fit right rite in this album 

[details 17,773]

finally heard the album!! time to give my unsolicited 2 cents about it like everyone else  

 

first of all, the thing i feared the most turned out to be true… the taylor comparisons were accurate 

 

my first impression of mayhem is that is quite confusing, i'm failing to make a connection between the visuals and singles with the rest of the album… felt very misleading to me.
 

my faves were abracadabra, perfect celebrity, garden of eden, shadow of a man and can't stop the high. i can't believe can't stop the high got demoted to a bonus track only, it's so good! i really love it, got a the smiths vibe but dancey… it would go really well with perfect celebrity on the tracklist. perfect celebrity sounds like a hybrid between nine inch nails and gesaffelstein, which i really love as well. garden of eden and shadow of a man are pure bops, garden of eden reminds me of private audition. and what can i even say about abracadabra? i feel like it's the closest thing we'll ever get to artpop act 2, like i just KNOW the same spirit responsible for tea and rabies was present for this one, it's the perfect classic gaga song! this is the best thing she released in over a decade i'm so serious… i'm actually starting to wonder whether or not this is an older song bc even her voice sounds closer to golden age gaga than post-jazz gaga like…

 

the rest is not bad but to me they belong to another record, another narrative, perhaps even another lifetime… i feel like if they were released somewhere between 2018 and 2020 with a more colorful aesthetic it would be more revolutionary, these songs really do sound like they belong to the future nostalgia / after hours era of pop music.

 

mayhem was perhaps the best name to describe this project, it has good songs but it seems to suffer from ADHD, it doesn't really focus on anything for too long. it's like gaga made different records and then tried to cram it into one

As much as I like this one, I think the regular fits the tone of the majority of the songs better

Ok,

It just occurred to me that I’m responsible for Gaga & Gesaffelstein‘s collaboration!

I was making Deviled Eggs for Easter listening to her album Born This Way, But I didn’t know his album Gamma had just come out - So I hit play on his.

So the picture above is the reason for Mayhem…

EDIT:

GOING FULL ON DELUSIONAL, MY USERNAME IS A SIOUXSIE & THE BANSHEES REFERENCE. SHE HAS WRITING CREDITS ON ABRACADABRA!!!
