Lady Gaga’s new album Chromatica: Full track listing and review round up

by

Lady Gaga released her first album since the soundtrack to A Star is Born today, the pop-dance album Chromatica.

Many of her fans are hoping it marks the return of Gaga and her original sound, after releasing a cover album of jazz standards with Tony Bennett and the more reserved 2016 album, Joanne, which some did not take to but others think deserves long-overdue respect.

Metro.co.uk are big fans of the album, giving it 4.5 out of 5 and suggesting one track, Alice, is a ‘career-best’, but what have other critics and fans online had to say about the pop star’s new album so far?

Clash

Giving the album an 8/10, Clash writes that this is Gaga taking us back to her roots.

‘Chromatica is stuffed full of hi-NRG club bangers that truly hark back to Gaga’s imperial period. It exists in world completely immune to recent trends in pop, where Drake and The Weeknd’s introspective, downcast R&B didn’t conquer all and, as a result, it’s like a beacon to a brighter tomorrow.’

AV Club

Giving the album a B grade, the publication calls the album ‘at times frenetic and disjointed.
