    This EP is very good: it's cohesive, it's dark, and it has good concept - Gaga's fears.

    It's an amazing album. A great follow up to The Fame that talks about the dark side of fame. Very cohesive, great lyricism, innovative sounds.

    Absolute pop perfection. I used to listen to this album all the time when I was a kid and I recently did it again and I still feel the same, it's timeless. It has songs that make you feel empowered, that make you want to dance all night or just make you want to sit and drink in the case of Speechless. Kind of makes me wish this was a full album and not an EP, but I think that makes it raw.Absolute pop perfection.

    Con grandes letras, grandes ritmos y un impacto cultural innegable, The Fame Monster es la obra definitiva de Gaga. Con una consistencia perfecta, cada canción funciona por separado y como pieza de una obra mayor.
    Uno de esos discos que no tienen falla alguna.

    The Fame Monster is the perfect album to spend your time in club or just to hang out somewhere. But I like this album for its conception. It's really wonderful how Gaga tells us about dark fame.

    Spectacular, Brilliant, Contagious and Innovative. With an even better sound mix than The Fame, Lady Gaga undoubtedly delivers one of the best pop works ever done with striking lyrics and a mix of genres that shows how multitalented this artist is.

    For a newcomer to the pop music, this is a good album. Actually, considering the facts it's a pop masterpiece. You can't deny that. It's simple perfection. It's Lady GaGa becoming Lady GaGa. She will never be better than this, NEVER.

    Gaga mostra todo seu talento como artista pop em The Fame Monster. As faixas, que conseguem unir qualidade a potencial comercial, mostram a pluralidade da música pop da cantora.

    One of the most innovative, genius and iconic pop albums of all time. Every single song from this album was enjoyable.

    One of the best albums I have ever heard in my life with iconic singles such as Bad Romance and Telephone and overall just being amazing with a unique dark tone. Favourites include Bad Romance, Telephone, Monster, Dance In The Dark and So Happy I Could Die. The only reason I'm not giving this album a 10 is the song Teeth which I simply do not like at all.

    The only flaw this album has it's that it is too short. Every song could have been a single. Bad Romance is the obvious highlight on the album but every song is perfect.

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

    Not 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.
