I don't understnad how you could close a therad for the album of an entirely relevant artist though... Thread bans for the messy ones would be musch more appropriate.
I just listened the whole album for the first time and just wanted to say this is one of the best albums of current pop music I've heard in a while. The only flaws I find is the low-volume "hee-hee"s in ARTPOP and the overall noisiness if you listen to the full album (but I also see this as a challenge from her, like, don't you have enough energy to embrace Pop music?). It truly mixes pop with art in a very interesting way. I'm a bigger fan than before: congratulations miss Gaga.
