    The Gaga has returned!

    Entering the album, I did not expect to feel nostalgic because of her released singles prior to the album but boy, I was wrong. The raspy, robotic-like voice of Lady Gaga is back once again, giving us little monsters chill as we reminisce those 2008-2012 days when Gaga's vocals were raspy, edgy and robotic. The upbeat production of this album is a perfect contrast    The Gaga has returned!

The upbeat production of this album is a perfect contrast to the sad and personal lyrics of Gaga in which we immediately feel in Alice, the 2nd track. This album would definitely power the dancefloor once people are allowed to go to the bars when this pandemic is over. Gaga gave the little monsters everything they wanted and we're all living for it.    … Expand

    The best album since Born This Way a truly masterpiece. Gaga back to the dance roots and she sings “this is my dance floor” and it is.
    Top Songs 1. Babylon 2. Enigma 3. Sine From Above

    Album is so perfect for nowadays. Firstly because every single one of the songs is so much produced and it is recapturing her first releases like legendary The Fame or iconic Artpop. Perfect. Great. Awesome. Nicely done Gaga!

    This is a perfect pop album, with extremely well-produced songs such as Alice and Babylon. You'd never expect a duet with Elton John would be a club-banger song. Overall this perfect album is a worth listen, from beginning to finish.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Reclaiming of the dance floor is indeed what the album should be described. With her sixth studio album, Gaga not only proclaiming that she's (still) the queen of the dance floor. But also proved that she has abilities to make a dance album that is fun, narrative yet cohesive piece of music in a Gaga kind of way.… Expand

    Epic one. The album is telling a story of outer space adventure, the future Alice looking for her wonderland and promoting kindness and pure rhythm. This is what we need during the stressful pandemic period. Bravo.

    The old Gaga is back, but with a totally fresh sound. She just released one of her best records so far.

    completely cohesive album follows perfectly in its three acts, and leaves you breathless at home, certainly deserves to be the album of the year winning the 2021 grammy. Lady Gaga delivered the purest pop we needed in this pandemic moment, we will be strong and dance in chromatics.

    What an amazing album, OMG.

    We've waiting since almost a decade for a pop record like this, and Gaga just snapped! THANKS GAGA FOR GIVING US A DANCE RECORD, i love chromatica so much.

    The nostalgia in the production — a blend of crisp digital synth textures and ringing grooves drawn directly from '90s house music — further bolsters the shadowed euphoria of a song like "Sour Candy," in which Gaga is joined by the K-pop girl group Blackpink; "Sine from Above," featuring Elton John, gets a similar friction from the interplay between their voices.

    Infectious, exciting and even a little hedonistic during some of the most confusing of modern times, now’s never been a better time to get lost in this new destination.

    Chromatica’s frank grappling with the vagaries of Gaga’s brain – and the way fame exacerbates them – ends up feeling much more real than touring dive bars with a guitar and a Stetson ever did.
