I feel like this review insulted Gaga's view on her life more than the music. 

This.

This is actually a very good review. Sal is much more knowledgeable about her than the majority of critics and is great at contextualizing both the artist's personal and musical history along with their musical references. I like the album more than he does but nothing he said is wrong and this is a perfectly good score for her all things considered.

That's a joke. 

I made my sister listen to the album. She's into rock like the stone roses and oasis. She said it was ok on first listen which is positive I guess considering her taste.

Why does any care about metacritic?  It's known that some of their reviewers are stans of certain artists, or just hate certain artists.  The opinions are not objective, so their scores are meaningless.  Find music critics who are known to be level-headed, unbiased, and judge solely on merit.  Listen to them, not metacritic.

but Metacritic is just a collection of various reviews from certified publications.... both crazy and sane critics

Every single review is going to mention ARTPOP :saladga:

Yes, it's her last album before this one. It's the job of a good critic to provide context for a release and not review it inside of a bubble. The ARTPOP comparison was pointing out the regressive nature of that album and how Joanne is superior so there's no need to get tight.

Yes, but some reviewers have agendas, such as saying what their own base of followers want to hear.  If their followers hate a certain artist, that could influence the review.  And I'm not saying to just pay attention to the critics who are Gaga stans.  I'm saying that the reviewers who take a professional approach and have the ability to put all influences aside, are the reviewers to value.  Unfortunately, the metacritic score includes some reviewers who are disingenuous, so the entire score is invalid.

I live outside the space time continuum.
