    All in all the album is boring. I like 3 songs but the others sound just the same. Nothing really original or fresh. Sounds like a safe boring album of an eccentric artist.

    Again back at it and again recycling past music. The track "Babylon" is nothing but a copy of Madonna's single "Vogue" and "sour candy" is basically Katy perry's "Swish swish" She is running on fumes at this point.

    Lady Gaga was once again able to surprise her fans with a visceral album that describes her physical and mental pains since the 2012 incident. An album inspired by the Chicago House with euro dance elements and that delivers partnerships between Elton John, Ariana Grande and Blackpink. The note could not be different.

    Lady Gaga went back to her pop and dance roots that made people love her in the first place and added a little bit of 80s/90s vibes in it while managing to keep the music fresh and new, and I love it! The songs are short but efficient and the lyrics are deep and even emotional sometimes. AOTY!

    I had high hopes for this album but I am very disappointed. :( Lady Gaga adds nothing new or inventive to her great discography.. it is really repetitive at this point. All songs sound the same and the production strikes me as cheap and lacks originality. It will be good in clubs and stuff, but not a solid body of her work like most of her past albums. I hope it grows one me

    I know gaga fans will downvote this with a passion but seriously, this is just your average bubble pop album. nothing fancy or groundbreaking here. I actually like mainstream/industry driven pop, but this album is not that good even compared to her previous albums. the best song is Alice in my opinion, and even that one is not well produced.

    if i want to summarize, another pop album

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I never had insanely high hopes going into this record. But I had enjoyed the lead 3 singles, despite the clear change of sound Gaga was going for. The biggest highlight is Gaga’s vocals which continue to be her biggest strength. She’s a phenomenal singer that even with the overbearing EDM dance beats... her voice still hits all the ethereal beats she always has.

    Unfortunately this album didn’t quite capture the same magic as her last record “Joanne” which took her sound in a new direction.
    This one just bordered TOO HEAVILY on average dance pop.

    There ARE some songs that do stick the landing. Most of which in the former half of the album. Such as “Alice”, “Stupid Love”, and despite my disliking of Ariana Grande... “Rain On Me” is also a pretty powerful track.

    It’s sadly just those few tracks in the first half that fuel the album. The rest of it is either way too on the nose with symbolism, or fail to match the danceable power of the lead singles. Featuring 3 random orchestral interludes and a collaboration with Elton John that is honestly painful to listen to. Nothing about “Sine From Above” meshes well.

    Gaga is insanely talented. One of the greatest voices in modern pop music. But unfortunately this album was more like her worst album “ARTPOP (2013)” rather than “The Fame (2008)”.

    This album is a big disappointment, but it’s far from being the worst pop album put out during this pandemic, OR in recent years.

    This is a strong C+. Maybe a B– if I’m being generous.

    THE BEST ALBUM THAT I'VE HEARD IN ALL MY LIFE.
    Perfect lyrics, so full of passion, full of love and intensity, it healed me like anything ever EVER did.

    Good album, but I was expecting to see more of the Gaga that gave me shivers during her performance of Elton John's Your Song. She's the complete 21st century artist and I was hoping she could express that better here, with more concept to wrap the whole thing and more interesting music. I still have to read the lyrics to find what are the themes behind the album as a whole but apart fromGood album, but I was expecting to see more of the Gaga that gave me shivers during her performance of Elton John's Your Song. She's the complete 21st century artist and I was hoping she could express that better here, with more concept to wrap the whole thing and more interesting music. I still have to read the lyrics to find what are the themes behind the album as a whole but apart from "Plastic Doll" and "Stupid Love" and the chorus on "Replay", which provide some interesting musical variations, as a whole the album is just generic dance/house music you can play at a club, with simple melodies and harmony and overly repetitive choruses (especially on "Enigma" and "Rain On Me"). The synthesis of pop music. The 80s/90s disco theme is intentional, of course, and makes her fan base happy. I've been told it's "an album to dance to", and it is. But it's just that.

    Bom álbum, mas eu estava com a expectativa de ver mais da Gaga que me arrepiou ao tocar Your Song pro Elton John. Ela é a artista completa do século 21 e eu tava esperando ela expressar seu talento melhor nesse álbum, com mais conceito para amarrar tudo e músicas mais interessantes. Eu ainda tenho que ler as letras mas, com raras exceções (como "Plastic Doll", "Stupid Love" e "Replay", que ainda apresentam algumas variações musicais interessantes), trata-se de um pop/dance/house genérico que você poderia deixar tocando em qualquer balada ou academia, com melodias simples, nenhum desenvolvimento harmônico e refrões extremamente repetitivos (especialmente em "Enigma" e em "Rain On Me"). Um álbum que é a síntese perfeita da música pop, sem nenhuma inovação. A linguagem disco dos anos 80/90 é intencional, sem dúvida, e deixa a fanbase feliz. Me disseram que é um "álbum para se dançar" e eu concordo. Mas é só um álbum para se dançar.

    The nostalgia in the production — a blend of crisp digital synth textures and ringing grooves drawn directly from '90s house music — further bolsters the shadowed euphoria of a song like "Sour Candy," in which Gaga is joined by the K-pop girl group Blackpink; "Sine from Above," featuring Elton John, gets a similar friction from the interplay between their voices.

    Infectious, exciting and even a little hedonistic during some of the most confusing of modern times, now’s never been a better time to get lost in this new destination.

    Chromatica’s frank grappling with the vagaries of Gaga’s brain – and the way fame exacerbates them – ends up feeling much more real than touring dive bars with a guitar and a Stetson ever did.
