She definitely has the indie credentials with Kevin Parker and Father John Misty.

that's why I think they will like songs like Sinner's Prayer (WHICH THEY SHOULD BECAUSE IT'S AWESOME)

I'm usually all for subjective critical analysis, but I'm sorry... if you can't find at least a few things to praise about it, the problem is yours.

Does it not occur to you that not everyone shares our love for Gaga? I personally can't find anything to praise about it either and I'm a fan!

Gaga's not a hipster and she's not indie either

To say there is nothing good about Joanne is just ignorant.

Pretty sure she has recently referred to herself as a hipster. But it was a forum joke...

And some of the songs on the album could easily be by an indie artist.

Why? Because I don't agree with YOUR opinion?

I don't think that was the point. It's more like there are definitely positive aspects to the album even if it isn't your taste. Critics aren't supposed to use their personal likes and dislikes when they critique an album. They are supposed to examine it objectively, or as objectively as they can.

A true hipster doesn't go around shouting it from the rooftops. Your a hipster because you just are, not because you tell someone you are.

And no she's not indie, it's a pop/rock record and she's a pop/rock artist. Indie is just the word of the month around here same as when Kylie brought out Impossible Princess. Everyone was calling her 'indie Kylie' which was total bollocks.

A "true hipster." hahahahahaha. It's called being self aware. It's so annoying when hipsters are like "Oh I'm not a hipster. not at all."

Says who? You? A little monster? Are you a professional music critic? No your not, your a fan on a forum. He is commenting on her position in pop culture then and now and he's right on the money.

uhhhhh. dude. whatever. I don't have to be a "professional music critic" to know what a professional music critic is supposed to do. And also, why are you here? Are you just trolling our forums?

Where in my comment did I say that anyone had to love or even like the album?

Having said that, if not one of the songs was to your liking, then I really don't know what to tell you. From a songwriting standpoint, Gaga has done herself proud on this one.
