May 20, 2011Love this album. Gaga is amazing. Only eight songs but all eight songs are hit songs. Amazing song writing on all songs. Track by track you don't get tired of it. One of the best EP album. The Fame was an amazing album and she came back with the Fame Monster another hitmaker album. Her style from the fame change but still and electro pop rock album.
-
Dec 5, 2010Funny that it was given a 3 elsewhere on here. Only a few listens and it's totally magnetic. Bad Romance is possibly her best song to date - the point where the chorus kicks in just takes my breath away. That and the hypnotic Abba'esque Alejandro, make this worth the price alone.
Maybe some are out-takes, but man. this is is just stunning! -

Aug 11, 2011You could look at THE FAME MONSTER as an extended re-do of Gaga's debut THE FAME or an entirely stand-alone extended play. Either way, it's Lady Gaga's best work yet.
-
Dec 11, 2011The best thing about this is that it sounds like the fame. 5 out of the 8 tracks follow in bad romance's footsteps in being danceable and addictive. Dance in the dark is ok but the other two, speech and teeth are rubbish in my opinion but I suppose they are right up the 'little monsters' street. If you loved the fame then you will love this. Another great record from Gaga.

Mar 20, 2012This album sounds great and is good! It's not innovative or revolutionary, but is good and fresh.
Speechless and So Happy I Could Die are great! The best of Lady gaga -
Apr 26, 2012I liked this album a lot more than her first one, the only big complaint I have is I wish she would've have put more songs on this album. I felt it was way too short. Again, she made great dance/pop songs. No other complaints.

Jan 5, 2013Yo compre este album y bueno es menor que su antecesor , pero combina muy bien los sonidos electro, rock y pop. Ademas su contenido lirico de te ha entender los miedos de Gaga y el amor por su musica.
-
Mar 24, 2013Lady Gaga returned with her first and Grammy-winning extended play containing hit songs such as "Bad Romance," "Telephone" and "Alejandro." Clearly one of the best EP's I've ever listened to.

Dec 15, 2013Changing the game with each album. Definitely a darker side to The Fame as what she have described. The Album perfectly comply the title THE FAME MONSTER. It would be difficult to understand in first listen but if we venture into lyrics and the order of the song, the album is near perfection. Just a small step
-
Nov 13, 2013Gaga brings out her dark side in "The Fame Monster". The album feature lush and well produced tracks and collaborations. Despite this only being an EP, the quality of each song makes it a fully realized album.
-
Dec 30, 2013Gaga improved with this album since her debut moment. "The Fame Monster" certainly reflects the dark side of fame without making it be nasty. Most recommended songs are "Bad Romance", "Alejandro" and "Dance In The Dark".
-
Sep 6, 2014The Fame Monster é um dos melhores EPs que já existiram. As melodias e as letras são excelentes, tanto que um EP fez um sucesso enorme. É muito criativo e divertido, com músicas que vão ser lembradas para toda a história da música Pop.
-
Apr 3, 2015Easily Lady Gaga's best album. Lady Gaga was way more artistic on this album than she was on The Fame. The production is more creative and Lady Gaga's artistic side is shown more. The lyrics have also improved greatly. This album is an overall B+. Highlights: "Monster", "Telephone", "Dance in the Dark". Worst song: "Alejandro"
-
Sep 4, 2020Para ser una expansión de The Fame, suena más a una expansión o introducción a Born This Way.
-
Apr 27, 2016Her second album after the "welcome to the pop" scene with The Fame. Great songs, infectious melodies, really pop music. Gaga proved she has come to stay.

Jul 10, 2017Bad Romance - 10
Alejandro - 8
Monster - 10

Aug 10, 2018Isn't better than 'The Fame' but there are some deep feelings and a dark vibe all over the tracks.

Dec 12, 2021Não é um tipo de música que eu gosto muito, mas, é inegável que esse álbum é um clássico no mundo do pop e no final acabei achando ele muito bom mesmo sem gostar do estilo.

Jan 8, 2021Lady Gaga has an unteachable ear for pop hooks. Like damn. Full of stand outs being the singles, fun detours like "Teeth" and "Summer boy" whilst the B-sides secure enough pop-edm bangers for this album to earn its legendary status in recent pop history.
-
Sep 2, 2020lo que me gusta de este álbum es que tiene un contraste con su álbum debut, tiene casi el mismo nombre pero tiene un concepto diferente. algunas de las canciones que lo conforman tienen un aspecto sombrío, mientras que otras tienen un tono más alegre. un muy buen álbum para una muy buena época. mis canciones favoritas son telephone, monster y dancer in the dark
-
Feb 13, 2021With only 8 tracks and a remix, Gaga gave us one of the most memorable pop albums of the late 00´s. The Fame Monster is for sure a big step in Lady Gaga's career.
Top Track: Alejandro
Worst Track: Monster -
Nov 20, 2021Uma coletânea de hits, Gaga mostra uma faceta extremamente comercial e necessária para o pop dos anos 2000. Certamente se o The Fame Monster não existisse o pop não estaria vivo nos dias atuais.
-
Feb 1, 2023None of this tracks are bad, every track it's great in its own way. Nothing less, nothin more.
-
Dec 18, 2022The Fame Monster album is timeless all of the tracks!
"Dance in The Dark" really deserves to be listened to with headphones. The production with all the synths is genius. The lyrics are also pretty deep. Dance in the dark is the best music of the album. -

RayRNov 26, 2009Good follow-up to The Fame but she should have added more tracks and released it as her second album. The standouts are Dance in the Dark and Telephone which pairs her with Beyonce. There is definitely a darker theme here. Speechless fails to show her soft side and Teeth is a letdown. Otherwise, a solid mini-album for Lady Gaga. Listen to: Dance in the Dark Skip: Speechless

Feb 16, 2011While most people are going Gaga on this EP, i must admit that i was a bit disappointed on this EP. The tracks are too long with sick beats and hooks. Although, the songs are really good but it did not satisfy me like what her debut did. Her voice is not good but she can sing. The EP is artistic but she is better in the futuristic one.

May 25, 2012This is better than her first album. The songs in this album has impact, which I want to have in her songs. The songs are very catchy just like her first album. A great album, overall.
-
Jul 5, 2011I am a Lady Gaga fan and I enjoyed this album. But, there could of been more songs on there. It only takes about a little less than twenty minutes to listen to all the songs. And sometimes I feel disapointed because a lot of her lyrics are just dark profanity.

Mar 26, 2017Dance in the Dark, Bad Romance and So Happy I Could Die are great pop songs, they carry this EP.
The rest of it is just okay, nothing outstanding, just generic pop music with generic lyrics. -
Aug 2, 2015No doubt it is a good job. Gaga I managed to follow the quality that I leave you with The Fame, the only downside of this album is that half of the songs are quite commercial and its quality is very loose but very rhythmic.
-
Sep 23, 2020This album is way more different than the ones from the time it was released and still is, you could definitely see ''Bad Romance'' being released nowadays, but some songs like ''Monster'' and ''So Happy I Could Die'' are really outdated. Overall it is a great album.
-
Jul 5, 2022i enjoying these songs but there aren't many songs so good in this album...
-
May 9, 2023More pop bullcrap from the peanut gallery for horny fans to obsess over. It was fun to listen to but nothing special.
-
Aug 21, 2023Its a decent, if predictable, pop album from one of the genre's most recognizable figures.

Nov 23, 2021For the amount of success and acclaim this album has, I was expecting this album to be an amazing album, but it really isn't. After listening to it for the first time, I can say this album is overrated. I liked the singles, very much, and in my opinion, they're the best songs on this album, also, because the album tracks don't stand out, only a few do.
-
Sep 21, 2010A little better then debut but we are still at a rather low level.
A generic collection of pieces electropo and dance-pop that will last a season or two. no ambition, very little originality.
Overrated and disposable. -

Sep 10, 2011Better than "Born This Way", but still a nonsense album. "Speechless" is a great track, but "Alejandro", "Telephone" and "Teeth" seem to be jokes, not songs.
-
Jul 21, 2018the purpose of a reissue is to improve something that was already done and although it is not a big difference with The Fame, definitely gaga redeemed and won a very high place in Pop and in our hearts.
-
Mar 6, 2011YUCK! the WHOLE EP has only 3 gd songs, Bad Romance, Monster And So Happy i could die... A big disappointment, but it's actually better than The Fame, too much about sex and is too creepy!
-
DanDNov 25, 2009None of the new songs are as instantly catchy as the songs on the first album, and I'm not sure I expect any of them to be added to my regular play list.
-
-
May 23, 2020Com exceção de" Speachless" e "Dance In The Dark" todo o resto é descartável. Típico Pop comercial e genérico que enlouquece adolescentes vazios e sem senso crítico. A mulher tem uma boa voz desperdiçada com toda essa produção cheia de sintetizadores e autotune.
-
leewJan 6, 2010Semi-catchy dance beats set to bland and soulless lyrics. Certainly good for a random teenage girl's myspace page, but severely lacking in content.

Mar 2, 2011I bought the first album on a whim because I liked the first single but I didn't buy this album, listened to it on the internet and it's definitely one of the worst albums I have heard.
-
Mar 23, 2011Mindless lyrics and repetitive beats. This album was crap, thats all there is to it. It was a trashy pop album from the worlds biggest attention whore.
-
Aug 8, 2015Cant enjoy the songs as i wished i wanted to. I liked a couple songs but as a whole album together, it fell quite flat and short for me. I dont understand the praise for this album.

Jun 9, 2017Se puede ver la falta de capacidad de esta mujer, queriendo inovar algo pero solo suena a exito pasajero que en unos años nadie reconocera.

Dec 16, 2020A segunda parte da copia, as vitimas foram David Bowie, Cher, Prince e Madonna, eternamente redutiva.

Jul 25, 2020Urge retiro de la copia barata de Madonna. Qué horror con esta inventada. Nadie se acuerda de ella en 2020.

Sep 30, 2020It's a good album actually, but I can't say the same about Gaga fans on the other hand, they are trash :)

May 2, 2012Not only does this new song cycle retain the Euro-tastic sheen of its predecessor, it outdoes it in sheer dance-floor whump.
-
Only after being overwhelmed by the sheer visibility of her warp-speed relaunch did I realize how enjoyable and inescapable her hooks and snatches had turned out to be.
-
In her music videos and live shows over the past year, Gaga has worked hard to demonstrate her creative ambition and stylistic range, and that project continues on The Fame Monster.
