Rate Music, Not Amazon *UPDATE* Album Review
After seeing the deal, previewing the music, and reading the reviews with problems, I've come to two conclusions: 1) The new album is definitely different, and I while I don't think it's quite as strong of a showing, it's still solid - especially for $0.99! 2) Amazon needs to moderate comments/ratings when there are known technical issues on their end! People should not be allowed to give 1 star ratings on a product simply because of issues on Amazon's end; That does not contribute to the product rating in any way. *EDIT* 5/23/11 1 PM EST I should also clarify that I have purchased the album, and have so far only received 6 items as well. 6 PM EST - Just received order confirmation receipt email, so things are slowly moving ahead, just have patience people. 5/24/11 Have received all files, as expected. Will updated with further album review once I can listen all the way thru. 5/25/11 - Full Album Review After listening thru the whole album, I have to say I like it better than I did from just listening to the samples. Overall it comes across as another successful adventure in new sounds and song styles, and has a distinct sound that separates it from The Fame/Fame Monster. There don't seem to be as many stand-out songs at first pass, but it may grow on me the more I listen. I will revise my review if I change my mind along the way. The album has a very 'big' sound, is somewhat whimsical at times, and covers a whole range of styles: Upbeat club/pop; Driving, darker electro beats; 80's synth-pop; Even a Ballad thrown into the mix (You and I) - This one almost has a country sound to it I am keeping my original star rating for the album, as I feel that artistically it deserves 5 stars.
