ArtpopAct2 2,672 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I do agree the songs are more similar to eachother than her previous albums. Even though critics criticized BTW for being too unfocused and too different I really liked that.  But the cohesiveness is definitely great and Iâm glad she tried it for this album and I think it worked very well. Though I do agree I wish they went a little more crazy with production on some of the tracks. Theyâre still great tracks though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlopSlurper 34,336 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 look at y'all. I've read "we don't mind criticism but say it politely" probably 2838282 times and here you are acting childish towards OP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
damag 200 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Itâs not the âopinionâ of not liking the production. It is the way it is said by some people in this fandom. The opinion is expressed as an absolute truth, at least thatâs how I read it. Talking like theyâre producers themselves, experts on the subject, and been on the game long enough.

Rbr 421 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Iâm not bothered by this. I think thats why Chromatica is different, its more cohesive and even though 90s House is something mandatory on this album, its very well done and connected. Its the first Gaga album I donât skip one single song. What could be better than this? The job is really well done, props to Gaga and the producers. They made a choice.

Since house music is repetitive having longer tracks would have made this a bad album imo I disagree, the best and most classic House tracks are like 7 minutes long. For a House track to really HIT it needs build up, structure, a climax. Most of that is missing on Chromatica. The album sounds like it wants to be House, a genre that is dead in the mainstream, but also wants to appeal to the modern streaming crowd. Their way of doing so is going for the most generic and safe type of House music, and keeping every song under 3:30. 4 minutes ago, damag said: Itâs not the âopinionâ of not liking the production.

You donât need to be a producer to criticize production. Youâre unnecessarily rude and a perfect example of the horrible things yâall have been saying to people with genuine criticism. Can we get a Chromatica Criticism Thread please? Somewhere where we can talk about the album and its shortcomings without getting insulted? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only critique is that the lyrics/choruses got too repetitive on some songs. "Butâ I'llâ keep looking, I'llâ keep looking for Wonderland, Wonderland" "Rain on me, rain, rain Rain on me, rain, rain" "I can't seeâme cry Can't seeâme cry ever again I can't see me cry Can't see me cry, this is the end" "My biggest enemy is me, pop a 911 My biggest enemy is me, pop a 911"  Is that common with house music? To be fair Bad Romance and Just Dance are pretty repetitive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddyjeddy 519 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Hahahah YOU ALL GOT PLAYED to whoever think itâs not her best album, itâs definitely up there and it has amazing production, what do you guys think it will have glitter and rainbow spitting out from it? The woman literally has all these health issues plus a f*cking crazy schedule but yet she still delivered an amazing production; lyrically and using different sounds from instruments etc and finally giving all of us the bops weâve been pressuring from here since 2014. I know opinions are opinions but Iâm so sorry for your lost by not enjoying the production of her cohesive art. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemonkey 635 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I agree, I like the album but the production is weak. For people that say itâs supposed to be that way because itâs supposed to be 90s, thatâs a lazy excuse as the 90s had great production, but what they use was like generic form of 90s. Her music (in terms of writing) is already nostalgic of the 90s and a really good production would have bring it to the next level. I think itâs better than her previous albums.

Nightcall 21 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I don't fully agree with you but I do see where you're coming from. Some of the songs on the album do sound a little repetive, I still like most of them but it can be hard to tell them apart sometimes so a little change in the production would've been cool. I'm happy with the album overall though. I haven't stopped playing it and I think it'll be my 3rd favorite album from Gaga. Sine from Above and Rain On Me especially are two songs that I instantly loved from the first time I listened to them, I don't think I've genuinely loved a Gaga song so much since like ARTPOP. To me this sound is very different from any of Gaga's previous albums. I'd say give the album another chance. Maybe it will grow on you or maybe it won't and that's ok. We all have different taste. You can always wait for the next album and/or get into other artists. That's what I did when Joanne came out since it really wasn't my cup of tea. Also I don't see anything wrong with your opinion. It's not like you were being hateful or having a meltdown. I don't understand why some people are mad about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankenztein 1,150 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I don't mind the repetitiveness myself. However, I was listening to the album with my mom today, and she asked more than once "Is this the same song?" when we went from one song to the next. I guess there is a pro and con to how cohesive the album is. Cohesion is good, but it also makes everything sound more same-ish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickypie101 1,473 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I feel the same way, some of the production does feel very generic, such as 1000 doves the chorus sounds really basic edm to me Iâm sorry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this album is really bland and repetitive, I donât care about cohesiveness, and even if I did there are ways to make a cohesive album without making all the songs sound similar. But itâs easier to argue against a straw man, I guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
