Lady Gaga Releases New Live Album Mayhem Requiem

Lady Gaga has released a new live project, Mayhem Requiem , via Apple Music. The album, which was recorded during a no-phones-allowed show at Los Angeles’ Wiltern Theatre in January, “reimagines” her 2025 album Mayhem with new arrangements. It also arrives with a concert film that will show at one-night-only screenings in select AMC theaters tonight (May 14). Give it a listen—and check out each track’s accompanying video—below

In a release shared ahead of the album, Mayhem Requiem was billed as “the final chapter of the Mayhem era,” starring Gaga as “the phantom of her own gothic opera.” Each song boasts a tweaked—and in many cases, more theatrical—arrangement, with the synth pop of “How Bad Do U Want Me” becoming a more traditional ballad and “Abracadabra” opening as a spare piano étude.

Since releasing Mayhem , her first new LP since 2020’s Chromatica , Mother Monster has been communing with her disciples around the world on an extensive tour , which included a massive free concert at Rio de Janeiro’s Copacabana Beach last year. She has also performed at the VMAs , salsa-ed her way through Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl LX Halftime Show , covered Mister Rogers’ “ Won’t You Be My Neighbor, ” and contributed multiple songs to The Devil Wears Prada 2 soundtrack, including “ Runway ” with Doechii. Mayhem won Best Pop Vocal Album at the 2026 Grammys, where she also performed “ Abracadabra ” with former Foo Fighters and current Nine Inch Nails drummer Josh Freese.
