I like grimes, but these threads are the nadir.

harsh noise when

link me the vidya of claire playin violin grimes bros

She never played it in public

b-but it's Carly

youtube.com/watch?v=tDPGkxWeicQ

but i was told there is such a video

YAY! GRIMES

she posted a video playing violin on instagram, back in 2013 or 2014

Why? They're pretty chill even with some trolls shitposting here. Some may say they're the most interesting thing on Sup Forums.

Carly is nice too, but Claire is even nicer.

and no one have has it?

thank you

That woman is fucking amazing, isn't she?

not even the best grimes in music desu

Grimes generals are not just threads.
It's an established community which has its own characters, memes and discussion topics.

Indeed.

What other Grimes do you know?

Rachel Grimes, Henry Grimes.... the list could go on

>search for "grimes" on youtube
>Rick Grimes, Carl Grimes, Shenae Grimes, Rachel Grimes
>REEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I think I had a little contribution to that. Previously the Grimes threads were random and not organized at all. Few months ago I opened (almost) daily "Daily reminder to be nice to Grimes" threads that were quite successful, and from here it snowballed into the current general threads.

that Carl Grimes isn't half bad desu senpai ; ^)

She knows some Russian anyway.

>The leak I found on soundcloud for Medieval Warfare was pretty good. It sounds like shit though, might just download the Suicide Squad leak just for the song, unless anyone has a copy in 320 (v0 works too, 256 etc) or flac. I enjoyed the song though.
>Not going to any shows or fests she's booked for
>Someone like Arca, OPN, or another good electronic producer to see what comes out.

>Not going to any shows or fests she's booked for
Even if it would be a free show?

What happened to CRJ and /wpop/ threads?

No interest anymore. The last /wpop/ thread died after a couple of replies.

he meant he's not going, either there aren't any in his area or he just can't go

I want to live in her shoes. I want her to vore me.

today I felt blissful thanks to grimes
I was walking on my way home and behaviour (youtube.com/watch?v=AoDbSJ1ljbw) was playing in my head, I stopped to buy some stuff I needed to buy (a book, a harmonica and a basketball) and I just felt so connected with everyone, I was super super nice to everyone I talked to, I payed for a woman bus trip and just fell a deep love for everyone, honestly if someone knifed him right at that moment I wouldn't have been angry at that person
and the song was only playing in my head! and it's a pretty amateurish song too, she truly is something special
thank you, grimes

So here's an idle question for you all. Which album (forgetting Art Angels for the moment) do you think is the best of the bunch in the running for this year's Polaris Prize? For anyone inclined to take a listen, the other nominated albums are:

Black Mountain – IV
Basia Bulat – Good Advice
Carly Rae Jepsen – E•MO•TION
Kaytranada – 99.9%
Jessy Lanza – Oh No
PUP – The Dream Is Over
Andy Shauf – The Party
U.S. Girls – Half Free
White Lung – Paradise

So far my top pick has been vacillating between Oh No (Lanza), 99.9% (Kaytranada), and IV (Black Mountain) while my pick for absolute worst has to be The Dream is Over (PUP).

Any Thoughts? Feel free to trash my opinion - this is Sup Forums after all, and I'm just curious to hear what other people think (I'm a recent Grimes convert, and this being my very first time having a wholly contemporary musician whose music I genuinely adore, I'm having a lot of fun trying to determine how she sizes up to the competition.)

>grimes has written sci fi porn
it's a self insert of fucking Feyd Rautha, isn't it?

Now I REALLY want to read this article.

I was here in the short time after california released when threads would die after only like 14 posts.

Hey fellow grimesfags, what's your favorite pre-visions songs?

Saved for the next cringe thread

sleep well grimey

what's your favorite grimes song and why?

Nightmusic, because it's the dreamiest one

Honestly, I think that Art Angels is better than all those albums. Maybe it's just me...

That's right. We the fans are more organized these days. These threads are the major reason why I'm still on this board.

>forgetting Art Angels for the moment
do you even understand that it's one of the reasons why these threads are hated? you're the opposite of being open minded, and i'm pretty sure you just didn't even listen to the albums in this list
I'm stuck between Oh No and Half Free

Rosa, Devon, Grisgris, Venus in Fleurs, Crystal Ball, Vanessa, Urban Twilight, Weregild, Sagrad, My Sister Says the Saddest Things, Dragvandil, Gambang, Caladan, Saturn Princess, Heart Beats, and so on.

I like it too. Pretty different than anything she has done before.

Sleep well grimey

>do you even understand that it's one of the reasons why these threads are hated? you're the opposite of being open minded, and i'm pretty sure you just didn't even listen to the albums in this list
I listened to all of them at least once. Emotion - multiple times. Why do you have a problem with my opinion?

>do you even understand that it's one of the reasons why these threads are hated?
And btw, like a give a fuck. If you have haters it means you're doing something right.

because you cant choose anything forgetting Art Angels, so I dont really believe you ever listened to them, most of these albums are great

What if I really like AA the most? What if I really think AA it's AOTY 2015?

i agree that AA is the most, and it's my second favorite album of 2015, but he asked you to forget about AA for the moment, why is it so hard to you?

Lots of people here visit Sup Forums only for Grimes threads, I don't think they've listened to anything except Art Angels.

And my pick is Oh No

I'm quite stubborn. In that case, I'd pick Emotion.

Hey i heard she was back on the heroin...

anyone confirm?

my aoty is a tie between nonagon infinity and bottomless pit

forgetting that art angels is the real #1, of course...

art angels was released in 2015

I don't follow the standard calendar. It's far too nonsensical and cluttered and stuck in draconian practices that I simply refuse to use it.

In your time my years begin and end on October 23rd.

cringe

what did he mean by this

...

One day I will run an empire and I will conquer every land on this earth in a massive war. Every single corner of this world will be under my control.

When I have assumed the role of leader of the world, I will enact my dark plans. What are these plans you ask? Genocide? Cultural progroms? Forcing everybody to wear silly clothes? No...

I will wrench the gregorian calendar and every last nonsensical unit of time that we use from the clutches of humanity and I will replace it with a far superior system. Change the length of seconds, minutes and hours so they all divide evenly. None of this 60, 60, 24 bullshit. It will be calculated in such a way that a completion of earth's orbit at the implementation of the system will be 1e8 seconds.

However the second will be based on a complex mathematical formula so that as the earth's orbit slowly decays, seconds shorten with the orbit so that time remains perfect.

I will do away with months entirely, days instead will be counted into the three hundreds instead of the arbitrary system that is months.

All will bow to me as the savior of mankind, who liberated us from the terror of the Gregorian calendar.

And it will have only taken a world war to accomplish it. In the end I will name the new calendar... THE GRIMES CALENDAR

...

it will be my gift to my god-queen.

a standardization of time, a gift to the future of humanity... maybe then senpai will notice me...

post more interviews where Grimes seems to be very relaxed.
In a lot of interviews she seems very tense and anxious but a relaxed artist is a happy artist has a happy fanbase

sleep well grimey

OP of the post you're replying to (and self-proclaimed HUGE Grimes fan.) My question wasn't about whether any of them are better than Art Angels (since - given that this is a thread for self-proclaimed Grimes fans - the answer to that question would be a foregone conclusion.) My question was which do you think are the best and worst sounding of the other albums listed.

>do you even understand that it's one of the reasons why these threads are hated?
user, cool it. No need to go jumping down other peoples' throats at the slightest provocation.

Lol you should go read about 18th century post-revolution France - you would've loved it there.

see

OK. I think I missed the point a little. Anyway, here it was my answer about the best one besides AA.

I miss old Claire

Even worse than Art Angels

she's in a better place now.

Which album is actually better, Geidi Primes or Halfaxa? And why?

Halfaxa is objectively better, but my favourite is Geidi Primes

I think they both offer a different thing.

While Halfaxa is definitely more robust in it's production and the quality of the recordings themselves, the emotions and abstractions brought to the table by Geidi Primes can't be dismissed for this simple fact.

To put it rather shortly, the experimental sci-fi nature of Geidi Primes makes it just as worthy of a listen as Halfaxa, even if it's extremely low-fi.

For me Halfaxa.

Imo while Geidi Primes has an interesting disjointed playfulness about it, Halfaxa's sound is just so cohesive and darkly beautiful... it can get down right scary.

I just fapped to my first grimes what do next?
