'I love producing — I always have — and something that was really important to me making my seventh studio album was blending live instrumentation with programming,' she explained. 'The album is chaotic from a genre perspective — it is genre-bending, and I think in that way is a deeply personal look into my mind as a producer and the way I think about music.
' She also said that the album has a 'darker pop' sound that's more in line with her iconic 2009 album, The Fame Monster. However, fans need not be worried that Gaga is going too somber with her sound. 'The album is not extremely serious in that it's very fun and meant to be enjoyed at a party, in a club, or at home having personal fun time — to be free of your worries at home or walking through life,' she insisted.

This was loved by the wrong kinds of people. This sent the wrong kind of message. Male rage! Nihilism!" All these think pieces.
'And then I think, "What if we went the other way," and now they have Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga tap dancing to a point where it's insane,' he continued. 'It has no plot. We would sit there, me and these other guys were all dressed in these security outfits because we're working at the Arkham Asylum, and I would turn to one of them and we'd hear this crap and I'd go, "What the f*** is this?" And they'd go, "This is going to bomb, man.
