One of her best records if I'm being honest. She's at her best vocally on this one. It's been in rotation since it dropped

CYCLOPS

A personal favorite :heart:

And releasing it in the fall was the perfect timing. I'll give it a listen now that the leaves are turning orange

Chromatica is so bitter sweet, one of her best albums up there with TFM and MAYHEM 💓 

I mean the vocals and themes are fabulous, but the writting and production kinda shows she didn't wanna be there. Joanne could have also been fantastic had they really WENT there. Like imagine if Joanne had all the texture of the Harlequin music, same with Chromatica that sounds so artificial for a Gaga record. All the songs needed at least some more powerful drums or something to bring life to the concepts.

This artificiality of Chromatica is so intentional - or rather it is the result of two extremes, sadness wrapped in bright production. It covers the pain. The lyrics are sad and the sound is so lively - this contrast makes Chromatica unique. Personally, i don't need drums on Chromatica, it's an electronic album. An electronic album that deals with soul pain, that's real art. I love the atmosphere of sweet pain on Chromatica so much 💓 

Chromatica is the zero point close to death and reawakening to life 👌

Happy Mistake is probably her best ballad ever... 

GP completely failed it.
