Description

Attributing all of her success to the support of her fans, Lady Gaga has come out with support of her own. Her EP ‘The Fame Monster’ was initially a few tracks that were going to be part of a re-release of The Fame, but Gaga retaliated from the idea, breaking the news on a German TV show: “I have been fighting with my record label because my album as a re-release was entirely too expensive for my fans. So last night I ripped it in half!” The EP has eight tracks, making it more of a completely new album than a few B-sides. Gaga has said her inspiration for the album came from watching fashion show on mute, and even said that Fame Monster “was scored for them”. The tracks have sounds reminiscent to the artists Lady Gaga is inspired by. You’ll hear a little bit of Madonna and Depeche Mode in ‘Dance In The Dark’, and a House of Pain-esque ho-down finisher on ‘Teeth’. A collaboration with Beyonce in ‘Telephone’ features a bouncy electric pop track, with Beyonce’s voice adding an amazing power to the track and fusing Gaga and her style together. For Lady Gaga fans, you’ll be glad the fashion diva still has her heart set for you. - © Emily Corine

    This album is definitely an evolution in Westlife's musical style, but it does preserve their basic "poppy but very touching sound" that I really love !!!

          From The Fame Monster, we already have 2 number one hits: Bad Romance and Telephone with Beyoncé. It also includes the other hit single Alejandro.
          This album comes with a mixture of songs, from the up-beat Monster, to the power ballad Speechless.

            Worthy of a release in its own right

                Comments about UMGD/INTERSCOPE Lady Gaga - Fame Monster (1CD):

                I purchased this single CD version of the Fame Monster as I already had the Fame CD and didn't see the point in owning the same disc twice. This second CD, sold separately in most of the world except the UK, is definitely worthy of being an album in its own right, despite only having 8 tracks. 'Bad Romance' is of course a monster worldwide hit, and is probably the track that sums up Lady Gaga's own genre most perfectly. The duet with Beyoncé 'Telephone' is here too, but there are much stronger tracks than this, including forthcoming single 'Alejandro', the intricate dance track 'Dance In The Dark', and the strange but wonderful 'Teeth'. Gaga is at the top of her game at the moment and could have released Monster as a separate album just 11 months after The Fame and nobody would have batted an eyelid as it is as good, if not actually superior, to its predecessor. It is a shame that the UK arm of the record label decided to rip off the British consumers and insist the new disc was only available in a repackaged 2-disc format. I think if they were available separately GaGa would have had two concurrent top 10 albums for the past 5 months instead of just the one. But if you like Gaga, get this - you won't be disappointed.

                  I am buying the 1 disc version as i already have the Fame album so didnt want the same songs twice...
                  Brillant album, but what is with the 2nd track name??? I havent heard of this song before so I am wondering if it is a mistake? Shouldnt it be called Alejandro?? if anyone know why then please tell me.
                  Well i will find out when it arrives I suppose!!!
