Lady Gaga revealed that her third full-length album is complete on her Twitter this morning. "Exciting news little monsters!," she wrote. "I've played my new record for my label and will be announcing my new Album Title in September!"

Gaga is currently in the midst of a world tour in support of her 2011 album Born This Way. The show, which is focused almost entirely on material from that record, has already been toured through much of Asia, and will travel through Australia and Europe through the summer. She has yet to announce North American dates for the Born This Way Ball tour, suggesting that by the time she hits American arenas, the show may be altered to include material from the next record.

“V.T.T.L.O.T.F.D.G.F.”

Fishbone | 1985

Quite a few musicians have utilized initials for song titles -- Michael Jackson's "P.Y.T.," Abba's "S.O.S.," Donald Fagen's "I.G.Y.," etc. But the more curiously initialed tune has to be "V.T.T.L.O.T.F.D.G.F.," short for "Voyage to the Land of the Freeze-Dried Godzilla Farts." Fishbone's original guitarist, Kendall Jones, explained to Rolling Stone, "When Norwood [Fisher] wrote it, he introduced it to the band saying, 'Man, I've been hearing about all these Nazi right-wing groups on the news saying the Holocaust was staged. So what if America said it never dropped two atom bombs on Japan, that it was actually Godzilla popping a couple off?' Only Norwood would come up with something that out." The same year "V.T.T.L.O.T.F.D.G.F." was released, the film Godzilla 1985 appeared in North America.
