/grimes/

Let's discuss peacefully about this music genius, Claire Boucher known as Grimes.

Grimes produced a new Aristophanes song, Humans Become Machines: youtube.com/watch?v=BHmVqMISPLw If you don't know, Aristophanes is that Taiwanese rapper that performed on SCREAM.

Remember: be nice to Grimes!

wow...just when i thought she couldn't possibly get any more beautiful

>Aristophanes
Some of us know.

Her current look is absolutely amazing.

That's why I said
>If you don't know

;)

Do you still like Oblivion? Personally, I never got tired of it even if I listened to it many times. This song is really addictive.

New thread theme

Art angel is goat

someone send this to her (say you have cancer)

Is this a new photo shoot?

Kinda. She posted 2 pics on her IG to promote a charity project (see her shirt). Like I needed other reasons to like her, she's so generous and nice...

why is she so obsessed with "yall" lately

also have you noticed she's been acting more and more like a hippie? like look at her in 2010, i recall her cringing and saying "I really hate to use the word, but for lack of a better term I really vibe..." or something like that in an interview.

i have a few theories, most of them revolve around the idea that since AA came out she's distanced herself personally from her fans and created a public persona that is far removed from herself. smart move, imo, but i dont want to pretend to know if shes being fake or not.

she's mentioned before how she has to sanitize herself so that everything she says is positive.

Why should I say I have cancer?

>>This is still very vague. Point to a specific example in her music.
>youtube.com/watch?v=eTLTXDHrgtw
>Listen to the bass drum part starting at 1:18 and notice how it gets tuned down by an octave in frequency (despite the fact that it is a usually a pitchless effect) at 1:26 before being brought back up a minor 7th and then a whole step back to it's original frequency, thereby forming a miniature melodic line in tune with the rest of the song.
>
>Stuff like this happens in her music all the time. Single percussive sounds that have a uniform rhythmic purpose have their melodic properties emphasized and then their pitches tweaked in order to add an extra melodic layer of interest to what's going on.

bad music for retarded people

she literally "looks beautiful" because her hair is covering like 60% of her ugly ass face

its literally full paper-bag-on-head mode

>not being nice to Grimes

Is /grimes/ finally dying? Wasn't the Venus Fly video supposed to give us new life?

Most overrated artist of the decade. She looks like a giraffe bye.

>enjoying grimes
please end your life as soon as possible

you are a waste of oxygen and the human race would be better without you

>>enjoying grimes
what's wrong with it?

>Most overrated artist of the decade
death grips thread is the other way

Ive explained it to everyone in these threads many times, my patience is exhausted

please just fill in the blanks yourself and fuck off to /r/grimes forever

>people what i don't like reeeeeeeeeeee

>i should be allowed to ruin the quality of a board with my retarded obsession over one specific artist instead of fucking off to a dedicated forum where i belong reee

my hopes and dreams just aren't happening. i don't know what to do with myself now

hang yourself only option desu

if that means less people obsessed with her i'm all for it. i usually think i'm over obsessing with her but then i listen to her last.fm scrobbles often. makes me feel comfy, like i was her in 2006

hmm i was actually over that a year before, it's been a negative experience overall

I like this pic because I can imagine she's urinating on my genitals.

>2006 was over a decade ago
wew

yet i more or less have the age she had then.. now i need to start taking estrogen so i become a cute girl like her
also if you're anything like me try listening to her scrobbles, it feels good, i don't know

If you're the same age she was in 2006 (18), it's too late for you to become a qt grill.

i know, it was a joke

Stupid and Retarded

doesn't everyone act to benefit themselves? fake isn't even the right word you're so far off

i hope our grimey is sleeping well

>why is she so obsessed with "yall" lately
What you mean just saying it? Maybe because she wants to speak like a human being instead of a literal fucking zombie like you guys.

grimes

...

...

grimescuck

she was in my dream tonight again

>why is she so obsessed with "yall" lately
Because she likes that expression. In general Grimes writes in the same way she speaks.

>but i dont want to pretend to know if shes being fake or not.
Come on. Don't pretend that you're acting like yourself when speaking in public. You put "the official mask" on, right? Why do you expect her to speak casually (she did that for many years but she learned a thing or two about PR from Roc Nation) when you wouldn't even dare to do that?

Get a real job.


Grimes = (((Grimes)))

End of story.

(((shitposter)))

...

>Is /grimes/ finally dying?
Just slowing down. Even if it will die, it will resurrect once our Grimey will release a new album.

That's a dude. Seriously.

i have a real job. what's next?

No, it's Grimes aka the artist of this decade!

Bye stupid hater and don't let the door hit you on the way out.

>ruin the quality of a board
>QUALITY
Do you mean the quality of a board of memes (including you)?

It's not a dude, it's Grimes.

>Ive explained it to everyone in these threads many times, my patience is exhausted
So why are you still here? Are you familiar with the definition of insanity?

Wouldn't be surprised.

Why are you calling Ariel Pink such not-nice things?

...

>Do you mean the quality of a board of memes (including you)?
Yeah

If it's so bad then why don't you fucking leave

To annoy annoying anons like you. And to discuss Grimes, of course. Problem?

She looks like a monkey

rude and false

a shapely monkey

...said the real monkey (You).

that's 100% a dude.

then you're 100% blind

Why should anyone care?

why did grimes let this disgusting chick into her video

>shapely

>Why should anyone care?
Muh gender fluidity.

Enjoy the pied piper freak show numales.

>not talking about music on /mu

>Pitchfork: Who's the woman with the pink braids, Brooke Candy?
>CB: I played a show in L.A. a few months ago, and I saw her at a party. She looked so cool that I was like, "OK, I'm just going to move to L.A. because that person has the best style I've ever seen in my life." So I moved to L.A. for a couple of weeks and I ran into her at a party pretty much on the first day. I was just like, "Dude, you have the most star power of any person I've ever met. I need to make a music video and I need you to drive it as a character."
>I don't have any money to hire actors. I just need to get people who are going to do a good job being themselves. Brooke Candy was the first person I found. It was all about her.
>Pitchfork: What's her background?
>CB: She's like a very contemporary muse: People make outfits for her, do her hair, take pictures with her, have her host things. She's like the Ryan Seacrest of indie culture; she's extremely magnetic. Whenever she's in a room, you just feel everyone being pulled towards her. She's also really comfortable with herself, which is key. Sometimes you find people who are magnetic, but once they get in front of a camera, they freak out and get weird. But she performs all the time. She's super powerful and aggressive, but really warm at the same time. That's a really good line to walk. You might be kind of afraid of her, but you still want to be around her. She's very kind in real life.

i rly dont like grimes in anyway. she is a pompous pretentious fashion-feminist,

yet i love art angel so much i forgive all, and in fact love

...

Where's the music discussion, nitwit?

Grimes doesn't like that Brooke Candy anymore. Maybe even Flesh Without Blood is about her.

>Grimes doesn't like that Brooke Candy anymore
how do you know

I think I've read that on an interview. The thing is she didn't mention her anymore after 2012.

>One thing I'm not sure I like when it comes to criticisms of the album -- I swear I can handle negative opinions, this is just a thought -- is that people have claimed she's gone too pop or too Top 40. Listening to this album, I struggle to hear anything outside of maybe 'Flesh Without Blood' on a particularly daring college pop station getting any sort of spin. Catchy melodies and production flourishes that touch on '90s rock guitars aren't exactly Top 40 these days. I've read some saying that 'Venus Fly' would fit in on the pop charts these days, and it kind of boggles the mind; where is this Top 40?? Can I get in on that one?

I was locked up for over a month and the thing I missed most was grimes general threads. So glad to be back and to find that her Venus Flytrap video is out. Life is good again!

Kek. Is that the trannie from Against Me?

No, you idiot. That's Grimes. She's a female.

I saw here live opening up for Lana del Rey and she was nothing compared to Lana ofcorse but her music was great she put on a wonderful show

Actually nevermind. These are mainly speculations.

>For what it's worth, if it is about Brooke, they don't follow each other on any social media platforms anymore.

forum.popjustice.com/threads/grimes-art-angels-general-discussion.34279/page-54#post-3983902

When she did that tour I wondered if there was much crossover between Grimes and Lana del Rey fans. Maybe I wrongly assumed that Lana's fans would "get" Grimes.

>she was nothing compared to Lana ofcorse
Do you really believe that Lana's sleepy songs have any chance against the full assault of Grimes' bangers?

LDR fans are womem.

Grimes fans are feminist train wrecks and waifu faggots.

Love the beat but really don't like the vocals. Is there an instrumental version of this song? Really cool music video though.

It was the first time I ever heard of her and her live music was so much better then her recorded in my opinion

claire boucher, i love you

Grimes fans a wonderful human beings with a truly sunny disposion, mister saltyman.

See pic related. She occasionally likes Grimes' posts as well fwiw.

Regardless, imo speculating about people's personal lives on an incredibly public forum like the open internet is never a cool thing. It's like talking about someone behind their back when they are, in fact, in the same room with you and within earshot.

yeah man

>It's like talking about someone behind their back when they are, in fact, in the same room with you and within earshot.
she and people who know her do not keep track of these threads and they do not visit these threads.

...

I like both LDR and Grimes so stfu

>she and people who know her do not keep track of these threads
It's about accessibility. The contents of these threads are a simple google search away from being read by ANYONE in the world with an Internet connection.
