I do admit, it is a rather "noisy" album, compared to her other stuff. But I still like it.

Isn't that just a general lady gaga thread?

It's a general thread; but that's where we're gonna be discussing the album. Lady Gaga isn't so relevant where she needs a separate topic for ARTPOP.

I've changed my mind a bit
Venus, sexxx dreams, guy, gypsy and artpop are the best songs.
All the others are not worth my time.
That's a nice little EP

That's correct - so I'm going to merge this thread. No need for seperate threads on this occasion.

So the general consensus for ARTPOP is that it's either album of the year or shit of the year. There is no in-between.

I feel a little mixed about this album, it's a hot mess with nice tracks here and the others are just trying to hard imo

I'm pretty disappointed with this album. On first listening, it sounds like a huge wall of noise, which doesn't really make me want to go back and hear more. The Fame Monster had a much cleaner sound and Born This Way, though it also had some tracks I though needed some dialing back, also sounded much more pleasant to me. I don't really care about EDM or her collaborators and most of the new songs don't grab me at all. The one song I instantly fell for is Gypsy; can't not love a song with such a euphoric chorus! Applause and Do What U Want are also nice songs, but they don't do much for me. Maybe I'll warm up to some songs later, but so far, this album is a dud.

I kinda like a few songs on the album such as Aura, G.U.Y., Swine, Do What You Want and a few more but it certainly isn't the album of the year. Just an ok one. I didn't expect anything fabulous so I'm not very disappointed.Maybe in the future days will grow on me.

This and it was said that "ARTPOP trips from 'genre to genre'". Where? It's all EDM songs. ARTPOP has some good songs but it's far from being "ART" or innovative at all.

Exactly. Where is the surprise on ARTPOP? Where is the genre to genre? I was expecting Sexxx Dreams to be a reggae meets EDM experimental song, GUY to be a R&B meets electro song, Gypsy to be an experimental ballad, Mary Jane Holland to be strange as fuck... and they are all basic EDM songs. Except from Sexxx Dreams maybe, the rest could have been on Born This Way
