Mayhem (Indie Exclusive, Alternate Cover, Opaque Blue Vinyl) [Import] (2 Lp's) |

Lady Gaga operates under a number of different guises -- chart-topping pop star, jazzbo songstress, power-ballad belter, award-winning actress, occasional harlequin -- but she's never better at being Lady Gaga than when she's operating as the original Lady Gaga, the dancefloor-destroyin' club queen who gave us "Poker Face," "Born This Way" and "911." Gaga has promised a return to pop with Mayhem, due in stores March 7 and described by the singer herself to Rolling Stone magazine this past January as "a transgressive journey through genres." "The album started as me facing my fear of returning to the pop music my earliest fans loved," she said in a press release announcing Mayhem's release, likening the new record to "a shattered mirror. Even if you can’t put the pieces back together perfectly, you can create something beautiful and whole in its own new way.” We're excited to hear the whole thing, especially since Lady Gaga claims it was heavily influenced by industrial dance music. Which you can kinda hear on lead single "Abracadabra" but definitely don't hear on last year's syrupy Bruno Mars duet "Die With A Smile." So who knows what's coming. That's the fun thing about a new Lady Gaga album. Madonna must hate her. TRACKLISTING: “Disease” “Abracadabra” “Garden of Eden” “Perfect Celebrity” “Vanish Into You” “Killah” (feat. Gesaffelstein) “Zombieboy” “Lovedrug” “How Bad Do U Want Me” “Don’t Call Tonight” “Shadow of a Man” “The Beast” “Blade of Grass” “Die With a Smile” (with Bruno Mars)
