MAYHEM: The Official Discussion Thread (Act II) It’s MAYHEM in here 👹

[serenity 77]

This is just wow!!! Her best album yet!!! Every song is amazing, no skips for me. She did that 

[NightStar 313]

I stayed up all night to give it a listen because I just couldn't fall asleep and constantly checked the Spotify timer  Just like in the good old days   

I really enjoyed it! One of the most cherished things about her to me is that among current music artists she is like one of the few who still manage to surprise you even though you may fall under the impression that by this point in time you have learnt everything about her and have learnt to anticipate her next move. And then she proves you wrong yet again! 

I loved that it feels very structured even though it is one of her longest records. I kinda envisioned it as three separate acts

ACT 1 : Disease, Abracadabra, Garden of Eden, Perfect Celebrity 

Vanish into you as interlude I 

Act 2: Killah, Zombieboy, LoveDrug, How Bad Do U Want Me 

Don't call tonight as interlude II

Act 3: Shadow of a Man, The Beast, Blade of Grass and Die with A Smile 

I loved that it was asymmetrical. The last Act is as quiet as the first act is loud, with exception of Shadow of A Man, of course  . This is also her at her widest sonic diversity?  Or so it seems so far. Like it has tracks which I can envision on every single one of her previous albums and also some that could be imagined on MAYHEM only, not sure I'm articulating it in the best way possible, but it's the first thing that crossed my mind when I listened to this record  

I also can't but mention that the tracks seem to come from her most vocally confident self, and at the same time the record is not as fast as ARTPOP or Born This Way, so I've got the feeling that we may see one of her best live performances at MAYHEM Ball 'cause it seems like she doesn't have to run out of breath while keeping up with the dance routines, except for at Abracadabra

people HATED dope and speechless on release. if it's not pop your *** banger then the fanbase doesn't want it

I hate dope because of her awful vocal delivery not because it's downtempo

Speechles is Beautibul song. Dope no. this is not a ballad or not subject. And i still think DWAS is the best track on the album unfortunately

So I’ve just listened to Kill For Love and I’d easily replace How Bad Do U Want Me with it, I couldn’t find Can’t Stop The High though, just a snippet

I am not a stan, or a super fan, but Ive been into Gaga since Paparazzi came out, and since than I loved every single piece she ever put out, some more, some less but her albums are always enjoyable, but what I truly ADORE about her is that every album is so different, I get that people trying to make comparisons to her older stuff, but I truly feel that MAYHEM is just what it is, and it brings new flavors of Gaga even after a long ass career as a pop star.

and this is EXACTLY why I can’t get enough of her, I am thinking that she’s about to go to one direction and than I get SLAPPED by her releases.

it’s funky, it’s hard, it’s memorable, it has some of THE BEST production, the CRISPIEST mixing and vocals she ever put out.

it’s a great album, I don’t even care about what the critics might say, u feel the hard work on every second of this masterpiece.

Woke up this morning and immediately played Mayhem whilst doing my chores. 
 

Is it too early to say this could be my favourite album?!?
The way she delivers some of these lyrics is just heaven. 
 

I love how different each song is, yet it all seems to fit so perfectly together. 
 

Current favourites:
Vanish into you
Killah
HBDYWM
Shadow of a Man
