Oh my people are LOVING this album! I’m so happy for her bc she seems so happy with the record and she’s been so upbeat in all her interviews, especially talking about loving her fans, so it’s nice to see her getting this kind of praise. Hopefully it helps her love this era and pop music.

I'm an ARTPOP bitch, baby

Would MrPopOfficial lie? :oprah:

No, the account is correct. On average, they upload 20-25 reviews. Chromatic had 25 reviews. Right now, they have 12 reviews for Mayhem and they haven't posted a very positive one yet that will probably register as a 90. Unless the remaining reviews are all 60s and 70s, it's very unlikely for her score to move below 80.

People loving this album while the ones who created the unrealistic expectations for themselves (which we told them not to do) are in pieces. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

should’ve replaced How Bad and Don’t Call omg :bradley: They would’ve been lovely little cute bonus tracks! 

imo, there shouldn't have been bonus/special edition tracks at all, both songs would've fit right into the album!

It's so sweet. This weekend! I was even thinking about our previous conversation recently and whether the forum could benefit from a new topic dedicated solely to the sonic landscapes of MAYHEM. I think the answer is yes. I am curious about your take on the album. I do have a feeling that it left a great impression on you. To me, it is the album her musicianship shines - I can hear every single layer so clearly! Definitely her best work since Born This Way.

You bet the answer is a solid yes! I’m excited to know it’s coming this weekend! As for me, it might be too early to say and I might be influenced by all the emotional charge these songs caused me (I literally cried listening to a lot of them), but I think it's my favorite album from her discography! I loved it from start to finish, no skips. The musicality blew me away, all the times I listened to Mayhem I discovered a new layer I hadn't noticed before. She outdid herself beautifully. And I need to emphasize how great the songwriting was. She definitely wrote some of the best lyrics of her career.

Reading these positive reviews like :coffee: I saw three 4-star reviews last night so I knew it would debut well but to come on to see that it had a full 10 reviews up with an 85, amazing. Consequence with a B+ just replaced that awful 2-star review from Financial Times (seriously, who s**t in their cereal? :patrizia:) and now we just need perhaps MusicOMH's 4.5/5 review to replace Slant's impossibly modest 3-star and that Wikipedia page will look mighty fine. Don't know why Any Decent Music are woefully behind with the memo but maybe it will even out. Holding out hope for Pitchfork and The Needle Drop. Then what else? Paste? Complex? Billboard? The Gay Times? I'm sure they'll enjoy it. As long as there's not multiple average/bad reviews from here on out, even if her score drops, she's got to stay within the 80 range easily. Gaga's first 80's score! Finally, an accurate critic reflection of the album's quality. :holdmyhand:
