Who here was listening to Grimes before Art Angels?
>>
i discovered her in 2011
>>
>>60304375
well considering it's taken her what 6 years to release it, i think it's safe to say that most of us were listeners before this album
>>
Who here stopped listening to Grimes after Art Angels?
>>
I'm still not listening to Grimes
>>
Shouldn't the question be "Who here was listening to Grimes before Visions?"
>>
>>60304375
I got really high and listened to Visions a few months ago. Wasn't bad.

this is /mu/ not facebook

literally everyone on mu. if you weren't you need to leave

>>60304375
Everybody was. Even the laggard plebians. What you should actually be asking is who was listening to her before Visions.
>>
>>60304375
why does she look completely different in every single picture. seriously every single fucking picture she goes from hot la whore to quirky hipster to shutin recluse to nerd to average girl wtf.

THERE ARE LIKE FIFTY FUCKING THREADS ABOUT GRIMES

i dont want my words to be taken out of context

i dont want to be infantilized because i refuse to be sexualized

i dont want to be molested at shows or on the street by people who perceive me as an object that exists for their personal satisfaction

i dont want to live in a world where im gonna have to start employing body guards because this kind of behavior is so commonplace and accepted and I’m pissed that when I express concern over my own safety it’s often ignored until people see firsthand what happens and then they apologize for not taking me seriously after the fact…

I’m tired of men who aren’t professional or even accomplished musicians continually offering to ‘help me out’ (without being asked), as if i did this by accident and i’m gonna flounder without them. or as if the fact that I’m a woman makes me incapable of using technology. I have never seen this kind of thing happen to any of my male peers

I’m tired of the weird insistence that i need a band or i need to work with outside producers (and I’m eternally grateful to the people who don’t do this)


I’m tired of creeps on message boards discussing whether or not they’d “fuck” me

I’m tired of people harassing my dancers and treating them like they aren’t human beings


im tired of being referred to as ‘cute,’ as a ‘waif’ etc., even when the author, fan, friend, family member etc. is being positive

A fitting opening. well memed.

I got into her like last year with Visions. Listened to the rest of her discography [spoiler]and didn't like it. Too experimental for my tastes.[/spoiler]

Visions was the shit though [spoiler]and Art Angels might be just as good or even better.[/spoiler]

>>60304482
This, and I fully admit to being a pleb who jumped onto the Grimes bandwagon with Visions.
>>
>>60304375
who the fuck cares?

Well whatever. Also do spoiler tags just not work on /mu/ or something?

Most of the stuff on her album before vision was garbage generic ambient loops anyway. Her best stuff is her most obvious.

Still need to listen to art angels, but so far all I gotta say is she has to stop directing her own music videos, visually she's tone deaf, her videos lack a collective cohesiveness or symmetry, she jsut has a hosh posh of different colors and randomness.

She wants to be creative as hell, and an intense artist but she lacks the sincerity to do it. She's too nihilistic towards herself.

I mean god look at how "creative" she is when she gets to dress herself in some photo shoots. Pic related. What an ugly color scheme.

This is just not intended for your sexist man-pig taste, stop thinking women are decoration.

>>60306936
I'm talking about the cinematography and costume design. Iamiamwhoami is intensely creative visually, Grimes is not. She's too desperate.
>>
>>60306973
I liked genesis video tho, in a way, but Oblivion is miles better. Realiti is fucking beautiful also, I think she filmed/directed it herself?
>>
>>60307141
Yeah Oblivion is Kai Bock's direction, and that was otherworldly. Genesis just lacks a bit of something in contrast. At least the color scheme was warm colors and consistent.

Didn't really dig the improvised feel of Realiti, just looks like tourist footage edited with lip sync footage, and not in a cohesive creative manner.

Oblivion was shot on the fly, but Kai's direction is incredibly consistent and the color treatment was beautiful.

fair enough I guess. didn't know what to expect but it's just not my personal taste. thanks guys,
>>
>>60307319
If you can't get into Visions at least, you have shit taste.

I'll admit her earlier stuff is a bit too avant garde even for me. But Visions is poppy and conventional enough to be easily accessible while still being trippy and Grimes-like.
>>
>>60307252
ikr? Oblivion is simple yet really good. Thing about realiti probably that I just like her dancing 2bh (and I unironically think she is attractive when she tries).
Thing with flesh without blood/life in a vivid dream is that it's so cringey it's actually good. Although really liked couple of frames.

Grimes is pop and art angels is her pinnacle.

Weirdly enough that's my favorite part too in Realiti is when she dances. I'll try to watch Flesh And Blood, but idk, just seems so put together without any sort of care. Just aesthetic piled upon aesthetic.

this is the weirdest fucking thread

Since Vanessa came out. The only way anyone listened to her prior to this is if they were really into Witch House (few people).

>>60306714

Bro, she's a lover of Dolly Parton, thus that outfit.

She makes very accessible pop with some nice filters for the most part, this doesn't invalidate the music, but it is simplistic in structure

people send link on twitter to threads.

never listened to grimes, am i missing anything?
>>
>>60311337
That's pretty 1337. But honestly, Grimes strikes me as narcissistic enough to google herself.
>>
>>60311345
As much as I'm a fan of her, probably not. Just listen to Holter or iamamiwhoami

Her music sounds like watered down Drive soundtrack.

yeah probly.

I intentionally didn't listen to Grimes before Art Angels because it was all a shit

Art Angels is ok though. Kill V Maim and Venus Fly are pretty nice.
>>
>>60311812

yeah bet she has. probably posted "how much do you love grimes" thread.

stop posting this ugly whore
this is not 2012
even three years ago she wasn't relevant
cancer that kills dream pop
>>
>>60312491
She's becoming even more famous now. I don't understand how she remained remotely relevant for 3 years of doing not much. But yeah, Art Angels has increased her pocket book. Tumblr featured her for 3 or so days, so she's definitely gonna become even more annoyingly famous homefry.
