what's up with her harsh noise album

fuck that's written like a structured general copypasta

i wonder if there is more dreamy Grimes song than Heartbeats
youtube.com/watch?v=RvXkx3IcOi4

She re-united with Aristophanes for Scream last week.
youtube.com/watch?v=pp-eqI0qO3o

it sounds bad

I feel like Scream could have been done so much better. The vocals are just grating and the rapping is off-rhythm

>What is her best song?
Hard to tell. Maybe it's Be a Body.

>Album?
Visions, followed by Art Angels.

>Live performance?
Glastonbury 2016.

>Who would you like to see her collab with?
Aphex Twin, Royksopp, Ulrich Schnauss, The Field, Orbital, Slowdive, FSOL, Boards of Canada

No, although I prefer the live studio version myself

Also, you can see Mac creeping around shooting music video footage in that video..

>What is her best song?
Realiti (demo)

>Album?
Halfaxa

>Live performance?
that one with Saturn Princess

>Who would you like to see her collab with?
Death Grips

>song
REALiTi (demo)

>album
Visions

>live performance
Pitchfork 2014

>collab
Blood Orange and Kanye

>Blood Orange and Kanye

I think her voice would fit with Blood Orange well, and I personally believe anyone can collab with Kanye and make it work

...

I puked it all out

>Who would you like to see her collab with?
Faun or some other medieval folk ensemble. Imagine Grimes singing magical faery hymns with old timey instruments instead of computer music.

...

He never smiles, and he isn't frowning, so that's a seal of approval for the ole grimey grime

Blood Orange might be neat. Kanye would be a disaster though.

>Now if I fuck this model
>And she just bleached her asshole
>And I get bleach on my T-shirt
>I'mma feel like an asshole
are you serious?

kys

Don't let the Kanyefag derail the thread, stay strong

kanye is an ok guy in my book

Her best song is My Sister Says the Saddest Things

I don't like him, but even I know that he likes to be considered as crazy, not ok

r8 this art i made inspired by grimes

delet

Kill V. maim influence

That one time Grimes and 2 Chainz wore matching pants... and tried on Travis Scott's grill:

Plus many other examples of adorably awkward interactions with [semi-]famous people:

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOOo

DELET THIS

...

genesis is my fave videosong

Have mercy

I literally have no idea what's going on, but I somewhat think it has something to do with steven universe?

pop sonics with comics vibe

>sonic
Now you're officially autistic

>le aesthetic meme
please stop. Its not funny, and its extremely obnoxious

"flirting with pop sonics" is like grimes catchphrase

top left, bellow is hana and two others are grimes dancers.

Grimes is flatchested you idiot

yea stop sexualizing grimes you pig!

...

what do you mean??

:^)

...

...

...

Grimes's beauty is underrated.

...

how so?

we on Sup Forums have daily group fap sessions of grimes

also young grimes >>> current grimes

...

...

So many called her ugly, goblin, monster, and so on. Some ugly early pics doesn't make her ugly. Her beauty is unusual.

It was deliberate scenic image.

she was almost 10/10 when ~14 years old

GET OUT

...

...

Erotic and artistic at the same time.

Rate her dancing.

...

...

Not a fan of the dancing. Seems like it distracts her from singing and makes her loose her breath. I don't like her back up dancers either. Their moves aren't that interesting and they're not photogenic people.

Love this one. Perfect.

...

>Seems like it distracts her from singing and makes her loose her breath.
Yes. But her dancing adds so much to her shows. She should hire someone to manipulate the gear so she can sing and dance all the time. Seriously, she's dancing better than her dancers...

>some ugly early pics doesn't make her ugly
>some
>doesn't
Triggered

well she was professionally trained in ballet for like eleven years so

My bad for my shitty English.

everyone can take pictures in weird angles/angles that make them look pretty. Same can be done to make something ugly.
Grimes worst photos are just shitty skin with acne and some facial hair in weird placed light source.

Also lenses. Try selfie closeup with smartphone front camera. You will look like ayy lmao.

Yeah, she's got some nice moves. Also she usually moves very fast.

>angles/angles
angles/lightning

>That first rule is very important.

IF YOU ARE NOT NICE TO GRIMES THEN GTFO FROM THIS THREAD

I couldn't get past 30 hours of not sleeping, I don't know how she can make to the 72hr mark, at 30 I felt misserable

>implying Claire isn't bipolar moody bitch herself

just do speed

Grimes sounds like the past, present and the future of music. Medieval chants along futuristic sounds, pop melodies along strange soundscapes, siren-like vocals along groovy basslines. What kind of sorcery is this?

like ulver but for 14 years old girls

I don't know I'm not willing to sacrifice my mental health for grimes yet

Nope. You mistake her cute voice for bubblegum pop. She's above that shit. Honestly, she's so underrated (literally) on Sup Forums.

>underrated on Sup Forums

basically half of the board traffic. Show me other artist that consistently goes over 300 posts daily.

Literally underrated. Her music is not appreciated enough; it's regarded as some pop stuff when it's clearly much more than that. She's more genuine and better than 10 usual singer-songwriters put together.

Its a sorcery born from an open mind, unpolluted by formal music training.

The Ballet Militia seems to have been one of the side projects Claire was pursuing as an excuse for avoiding dealing with her sudden fame as Grimes post Visions success. The project's 2nd release was going to be the 'Be a Body' music video that she eventually decided to shelve, for unknown reasons (all of this is mentioned across several different interviews she did that I can't be bothered to find at the moment.)


Fwiw Jim Morrison pretty much predicted the existence of Grimes more than 45 years ago - with alarming accuracy. Skip to around the 39 minute mark:
youtube.com/watch?v=-ZpuFr8XSoI?t=39m

>"I guess [...] the new generation's music will be - it will have a synthesis of those two elements and some third thing. Maybe it will be... it might rely heavily on electronics - tapes. I can kind of envision maybe ONE person with a lot of machines - tapes and electronics setups - singing or speaking and using machines."
- Jim Morrison, The Doors PBS Critique show (April 29th, 1969)

1. Shame about that shelved Be a Body video. That song deserved a video.

2. Indeed, Jim Morrison predicted the future of music precisely. I'm glad that Grimes exists.
