    A very cohesive pop effort, showing Gaga’s lyrical, sonic, and thematic maturity. Some songs are better than the others, giving some low points or potential skips for casual listeners during the album. Nonetheless, this is outweighed by the well-thought out track arrangement and seamless flows, particularly between the the orchestral interludes and the following dance track. Sine FromeA very cohesive pop effort, showing Gaga’s lyrical, sonic, and thematic maturity. Some songs are better than the others, giving some low points or potential skips for casual listeners during the album. Nonetheless, this is outweighed by the well-thought out track arrangement and seamless flows, particularly between the the orchestral interludes and the following dance track. Sine Frome Above is a moment. Chromatica cuts emotionally as it successfully juxtaposes dark lyrics against joyful beats in some of the tracks, giving listeners a musical dissonance in the best possible way.… Expand

    A transição de uma música para a outra é incrível . Ela literalmente criou uma obra prima dos anos 90 90 ' n 2000 e com eurodance . Esse álbum reúne muito mais que uma música viciante e melódica . Ela reuniu a PERFEIÇÃO de um álbum completo . Se vocês queriam vingança para o ARTPOP aí está !!!!!

    ART. That’s all there is to it...art. Gaga takes audiences around the world on her emotional journey through music that celebrates all the rain that has fallen from her eyes, and the rainbows that come after, all in this lyrical and musical masterpiece called Chromatica.

    Generic beats findable at any club made by local novice DJs. Some lyrics like from 1000 Doves are great though, most of the tracks are just repeating the name of the song over a generic beat.

    Chromatica is one of Lady Gaga’s best work that she has ever put out. During these harsh times, it’s really insuring to get an album which encourages you to dance and be happy. This is portrayed by the lyrics which are a little bit dark and the production being upbeat and cheerful.

During these harsh times, it’s really insuring to get an album which encourages you to dance and be happy. This is portrayed by the lyrics which are a little bit dark and the production being upbeat and cheerful. Apart from the outstanding futuristic visuals that this album offers, the most intriguing thing that I found was how this album is divided into 3 sections. To me, the three parts sounded different sonically. In the first part (Chromatica 1) Lady Gaga goes back to her roots, which is pop. In the second part (Chromatica 2), the songs were experimental and Gaga used voice modifications to alter her voice to sound robotics. In the last part (Chromatica 3), the songs were anthemic and she showed her powerful vocal skills. Even thought the tracks are not as divided as I divided as I claimed it to be, as then the album would not be coherent, she still created this album in a way that it has different songs sonically but still sounds like it is very coherent.… Expand

    Lady Gaga returns to the musical stage with a masterpiece of Pop music. If it is one of her best works, I dare say that it is the best. The rhythms, the lyrics ... It's a perfect combination of sounds, and the interludes are a beautiful orchestra that is magically connected to the entire album. The best song is without a doubt Sine From Above with Elton John, a masterful cake

Faixas como Sine from above são realmente cativantes e calorosas. Outras como Enigma, Babylon e Replay são destacadas por suas batidas fortes e poderosas, entregando a verdadeira sensação de energia e êxtase.

Nada falta e nada sobra. Um disco que dá para ouvir num único fôlego, sem momentos baixos. As interludes - o que dizer? - Gaga não poderia ter pensado em nada mais coerente para amarrar os 3 atos do disco.
