AUDIO DECONSTRUCTION

LADY GAGA'S FAME MONSTER = MEH

POSTED BY BEETLE




So, Lady Gaga’s new album “The Fame Monster”….eh? Well… I was curious, got my hands on an advance copy a couple of weeks ago and have been spending some quality time listening to the Gaganator. Here is what I have to say about it: I hate, HATE, when artists RErelease tracks on an album and have the balls to call it “new” cause there are a couple of fresh tracks on it. It bugs me, there are only 8 legit new tracks!? What the effbomb?! In my opinion, Show Me Your Teeth and Bad Romance are the best songs on the album. The rest fall seriously short of my Gaga standards. It is ALL about heartbreak waaa waaa waaa. You’re FREAKING LADY GAGA!? You want me to feel sorry for you cause your Spanish lover ate your heart?! MEEP sorry, not really feelin’ the sympathy pains.



The album is neat as a whole. Cool tunes, groovy beats, good dance tunes… the new stuff just brings it down a little. Too much “feel sorry for me” not enough “fuck you”…. You know? It’s worth listening to if you dig the GagaLoo. Pretty good driving jams.


I am stoked to see her live again. I have seen her rock it at the Mirage and The Commodore... Her shows at QE are going to be off the hook. She is undeniably fabulous live and has a killer presence! So, album aside, I still love the Gaga.
