Fanboy.

I don't know if anyone was planning on it, but don't buy The Fame Monster vinyl. It's a picture disc that sounds like shit. Purely for decoration. The Fame sounds good though.

Reverse. Fame Monster should be orange and The Fame should be red (though depending on how long and successful her career ends up being I could see them as both being orange eventually). Either one of them work as a first listen.

TFM > The Fame. They're almost equal though.

Yeah, I was thinking of putting TFM as orange from the start. Its orange now.

I'll leave The Fame as first listen.

Apparently Born This Way will have 20 tracks... the hype however she's creating for it is suicidal, claiming it will be 'the greatest album of the decade' etc etc. Gurl.

Wasn't The Fame Montster promoted to LP status?

edit: according to wikipedia it's not, but in my eyes it meets all the requirements.

Lady Gaga needs to get experimental, even if it backfires. She's perfected the art of selling a massive hook or two, and she obviously is no stranger to production and how to work with producers to get her desired effects. Like Kate Bush (though for different reasons), I can't say I'm a fan of her early work, but I'm hoping she can crank out her Hounds of Love soon, it'll be interesting to say the least.

I think my favorite songs on The Fame Monster are "Dance in the Dark" and "So Happy I Could Die"

This is how I feel as well but from what I've read in interviews she seems to have no interest in becoming, as she calls it, a niche artist. She just wants to be conveyor belt of incredibly good, incredibly popular pop songs, and be a huge spectacle at the same time. I'm hoping that she'll just get over it eventually, or her shtick will start to wear thin pretty quickly. Hoping for the best, expecting the worst.

Yeah, I share those feelings. Gaga has made two brilliant albums where both rely heavily on a tried and true formula, but how long can she keep it going before stumbling? I want more Gaga, but I wouldn't want her to just repeat herself. She should be able to keep her signature sound intact without sacrificing originality.

I agree... She is going to have a hard time keeping some of her fanbase (she needs some tight hits) but many of the fans also want new, unique stuff from him, and not the same old repeated formula... I hope that the next album is a huge success both artistically and commercially! :wink:
