She got rid of her moustache and unibrow
Her music is completely pop now
She's appearing on canadian housewives womens magazines
Is grimes complete trash now?
Is it because you all pirated her album instead of buying it?
>Is grimes complete trash now?
>now
epic for the win
>>61740674
So pretty. My preciousss.
>>61740694
>le ebin contrarian /r/maymay
I might be able to take on grimes 1v1 irl
>>61740708
>universally regarded as shit music
>contrarian
>>61740771
You dumb. Her music is univerally acclaimed.
she was pretty good before art angels
guess the time after visions ruined her
This is just like St. Vincent. Grimes has always been pop music. It makes no sense for people to say now that she's "completely pop" when she's been that the entire time.
>>61742298
but that's blatantly untrue, you're buying into her bullshit
>>61740771
>>61740924
>universally
>>61742325
>pop musician makes pop music
Sssssssssell out!
>>61742298
St. Vincent has some pop elements in her music (catchy choruses) but she's much more than that. Her primary genre is indie rock (you can hear that noisy guitar on almost every song of her).
>>61742344
Yes. Almost every critic rated positively her latest album. Not counting her album featuring on many year end lists.
>>61742298
St.vincent makes great music and isn't a narcissistic person like grimes
she fucking did intense sessions with crazy michael gira.
can't compare her to grimes who on purpose makes average music then expects people to praise because she did it by "herself"
its genius how she has set herself up
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwycwmNROxUfrom this era
to what she is doing now
>>61742354
she was not a pop musician, saying that she was is ignoring the music she had released up until art angels
pushing the meme she herself pushes about always being about pop is buying into a lie she pushes to perpetuate a lie for the sake of her image
you are an absolute idiot and probably waifufaggist cancer and probably underage
>>61742358
>>61742403
I'm not comparing the two, I'm comparing the reactions to their latest albums where as pop musicians they make pop music and people freak the fuck out like they killed their pets.
>>61742408
I don't even like Grimes and haven't listened to more than a few songs by her (both off the new album and before) but saying she's "completely pop" now is retarded as her music has always been pop music. You can dislike it all you want but claiming her earlier stuff is a completely different genre just because she's more well known know is pretty pathetic. Like I said above, the same thing happened with St. Vincent when her self titled album came out a couple years ago.
>>61742408
(diff anon) Why some people are so surprised that Art Angels is electropop when Grimes said many times that she loves pop music (even cheesy stuff like Mariah Carey)? I guess many idiot hipsters simply don't like pop music and can't accept the fact that she does what she wants with her music.
>>61742507
She's a Justin Bieber fan, so yeah, i'm not surprised.
>>61742554
At least she's honest about it. Unlike so many hipsters from /mu/...
>She got rid of her mustache and unibrow
>pic related, Grimes in 2011
She has always been pop. Before, she was less accessible because she was making more experimental dream pop and stuff, but it was still pop. Now she's gone further into dance pop, which is much safer, better for radio play, and broader appeal. Not sure what the argument is, here.
>>61740674
>Is grimes complete trash
Yes, no need to continue that sentence
>>61742473
and I'm not saying she's completely pop, and no, it has not always been about pop music
it is now because pop music throwbacks are cool and she's associating her image with it to sell herself to people who buy into it
she is extremely vapid and superficial and she's constantly latching onto things, both in an ironic and non-ironic manner, to boost her own image
>>61742507
fuck off, seriously, you just interjected with the dumbest point one could make
>>61742378
Ever wonder why?
>>61742507
because prior to that grimes was the weird indie kid who made add music (her words)
she dressed like any art kid with the colored hair and nose rings. we/they thought she was one of us
until that whats in my bag interview where we find out
she only went that path because society/normal people didn't pay her attention
>>61742604
>fuck off, seriously, you just interjected with the dumbest point one could make
Fuck off too, idiot. Your points are retarded.
>>61742583
Don't look at the me, i'm listening to American Idiot right now.
>Criticizes somebody for listening to JB
>While listening to Green Day
My fucking god, i think i turned into a You Tube stereotype.
>>61742626
Because the album is great. If you imply that she paid for that you're wrong.
As someone who has avoided grimes' music like the plague, by looking through her YouTube channel for maybe the first or second time I can declare that:
>genesis is ok
>oblivion is ad music
>I can't remember the third thing I saw, she had red hair in the video. It was better than oblivion and genesis.
>the songs available to my country from the art monsters album or whatever it's called are remarkably better than anything else I've heard from her
>>61742638
I'm not the one not recognising her signalling for what it is, and not the one buying into it, and not making irrelevant points about imaginary hipsters who don't like Grimes because they can't get into "cool retro shit like Mariah Carey"
you're a dummy
>>61742661
Listen to whatever you like. But I must point out the hypocrisy of many people (in general, not you) that claim that pop music sucks while listening to the latest pop hits when no one is around.
>>61742696
Also, it's pop. Don't kid yourselves by thinking otherwise.
And no, there's nothing wrong with pop.
>>61742663
Keep telling yourself that. Art Angels is fucking dogshit for anime pizza tumblr teens. Literally 2006 pop music trash. Lowbrow Radio Disney garbage. Utterly awful.

For you. That's subjective. Don't claim the album is bad because you don't get it.

>>61742804
well, who knows if it's done according to her wishes or what "the industry" thinks should be done
At what point can we count Sigur Rós among her influences? Is it when she stops singing actual words?
>>61742799
It is. A lot. The melodies, the beats, the production, even the lyrics. Really, you can't find anything enjoyable?
On a side note, why the fuck /mu/ is so contrarian about anything acclaimed? I've seen almost any great album trashed by a bunch on monkeys with keyboards. Shame.
>>61742783
You're reading way too far into it holy shit. It's seriously shitty bubblegum pop, get the fuck over yourself.

You wouldn't. My taste is great (Autechre, Killing Joke, Brian Eno, Neu!, New Order, Depeche Mode, Stereolab, Outkast, Robyn, Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk, LCD Soundsystem, Porcupine Tree, The Cure, David Bowie, Kate Bush, and so on). I can say that Art Angels is pop genius, like it or not.
>>61742840

nigger, your taste is the same as the guys who listen to Radiohead, GYBE, Slint & Death Grips, where the fuck do you take to acting superior to them
She's was always pretty damn mediocre and the way her music is seen here was only elevated because of the new poptimism fad.
I mean her music is better than Carly Rae Jepsen who is an outright shitty musician shilled by poptimists and P4K drones.
>>61742298
>visions is the first thing she did.
Grimes wasn't pop when she started, she just turned pop once she got a bit of recognition, then went full force when that became an option. She just does whatever gets her the most attention at a given time, like all hollow personalities who use music to promote their own narcissism. Once pop doesn't want her she will do some "serious" shit to try to stay relevant.

>>61743415
It's not. Tell me another /mu/tant that like all these artists (not separate). And that was just a very short list with some of the most well known artists.
I could add also Speedy J, Yellow Magic Orchestra, B12, Pete Namlook, Silver Apples, Delia Derbyshire, Jean Michel Jarre, The Chameleons, Cabaret Voltaire, Lush, Front Line Assembly, Lykke Li, The Pop Group, The Specials, Madness, Devo, Talking Heads, Blondie, Gong, Hawkwind, Motorhead, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Sparks, The Orb, Derrick May, Plastikman, Amon Tobin, DJ Shadow.

I love how you think this is your MySpace page and so you list a bunch of entry-level (not bad, per se, just stuff that the average 15 year will encounter in their first year of trying to find cool music) names designed to carefully show off your range of tastes and depth of knowledge as if there is a chance in hell someone will see it and think you're cool.
That's not how shit works, doofus, 100% of bands anyone says they like are shit by definition. We have no time to respect your earnest belief in your bland taste.
>>61743653
You're not special, man. Fucking Jesus. You're not special at all.

Because that's the context it was presented under.

It's just that you're taste encompasses probably more than half of the people posting on this board, yet you demand to be treated with respect because you read the /mu/core chart or something. It's fucking embarrassing. You're not special, you're actually pretty fucking basic. No one cares that you can namedrop a bunch of entry level shit.
holy shit is someone unironically saying that, because they listen to certain music, they have more credibility than another person?
christ almighty kill me now
Let me tell you why this board is imbecile:
- if you post good stuff but known: omg, you're a drone, you have bland taste
- if you post obscure shit: you're a damn hipster, a try hard
The reactions from this thread prove that many of you have mental problems and seriously go see a doc. Do you understand, fuckers?
>and so on
>>61744169
This board is shit (not "imbecile") because people think that listening to certain music makes you smarter than someone else.
If you've studied music at university that's something entirely different, but you don't get any fucking superiority or anything from listening to certain music.
>>61744169
A lot of it is baiting.
>suddenly the Bowie wars begin after his death
>>61744169
Demanding respect for listening to music (literally the most uninvolved/passive hobby imaginable) is more deluded. You should be institutionalized or have the shit beaten out of you, and so on.
>>61744143
You're right. I have more shitposting and bait material to post.

Awwww, we're you hoping we would all be super impressed by a list of bands literally everyone who has checked out music at all is already familiar with?

You don't like it, you can hit the bricks on over to imgur, you daily show watching son of a bitch. I hope you don't tho. I hope you stay here and learn our ways.

You literally listed those bands to prove to us that your opinion of grimes has some kind of objective weight to it.
Sad fact is that your tastes are WAY too basic to impress anyone, so nobody has accepted that your opinion of grimes carries any weight beyond your own subjective enjoyment.
So the fact of the matter is you tried and failed to impress anyone which was your explicit goal.
Seriously consider not being such a fucking sap.

How the hell my taste is WAY too basic? I know a lot of people and VERY few listen to even 1/8 of these artists. If this board is too elitist for these artists, well this board can kiss my ass.

>>61744981
There's a diff between being special and having "way too basic taste". I'm 10000% sure that many fuckers here don't know even 1/2 of these artists. You're all too busy worshipping Meme Grips, Sling, King Crimson, etc. Prove me wrong.

You know what the difference is between you and me? I don't expect you or anyone else to respect me because of it. I just like what I like and don't assume it makes me an authority whose opinions somehow matter more.
>>61745265

No.

Think what you want but you're objectively wrong.

Good. I'm not impressed anyway.
>>61745419
Some classical. I don't like jazz.
>>61745423
Good, that makes us even.
Now, do you care to address the basic issue that you are the one who thought your tastes were impressive, and that people were supposed to take your opinion on grimes as more valid because of them?
I have been repeating over and over that nobody is impressed by anyone's taste, so thanks for proving my point.
>>61745419
Basically I like: dreampop, electropop / synthpop, shoegaze, new wave, thrash metal, hard rock, alternative rock, indie rock, classic pop, hip-hop, a bit of blues, folk & classical, ambient, techno, trance, house, drum and bass, downtempo, 8-bit, trip-hop, breakbeat, post-punk, punk, glam rock, progressive rock, krautrock, berlin school, psy-bient, gothic rock, electro industrial, ebm, futurepop, idm. If it sounds to my ears, I like it.

>>61745265
What's up with that Orbital discography? They're one of my favorite 90s artists, along Underworld, The Chemical Brothers, The Crystal Method, FSOL, Ken Ishii, Ultramarine, Spooky, Biosphere and many others.
>>61745732
Caring about what bands or genres you mistakenly believe give your opinion the weight of authority and caring enough to make fun of you for thinking something so dumb are two different things.
The joke is that rather than addressing the fact that no list of bands you like makes you an authority on anything, you just keep naming bands and genres as if we're all of a sudden going to be like "oh, he likes ambient and techno and Gothic rock, this dude is legit for real" and crown you king of the correct opinions.
Also, from your list of genres that ends in 2002 I'm going to assume you are way, way too old to be this oblivious.
>>61745859
I damn trolling, don't take that too seriously. But I really like all those artists mentioned.
>Also, from your list of genres that ends in 2002 I'm going to assume you are way, way too old to be this oblivious.
Sorry but vaporware, bubblegum bass, pc music and other crap isn't for me. I like chillwave & dubstep though.
>>61745939
I like also synthwave. Anything with synths that sounds great is for me.
AS WELL AS MANY MORE

And I think art angels is garbage music for people who think Devo is obscure and that NPR playlists are a wild exploration of the varieties of musical experience.
>>61746208
oh you
>>61746154
enjoy your music.i dont care about your taste whether or not its bad,basic,reddit and so on.
>>61746208
Devo aren't obscure. Not really mainstream tho. Using my music knowledge I can say that Art Angels is really great. Very underrrated there.
>>61746257
Say what you will, but at least check those 5 tracks. You don't lose anything.
>>61740674
Good move on her part.
>>61746332
>Art Angels
More like Fart Angels :^)
cause it sounds like shit
>>61746361
So you legitimately belive people haven't heard of slowdive, massive attack, Steve Reich?
Like, you think everyone's mother doesn't know who Steve Reich is?
For real?
How does it feel that the average 14 year old with the tiniest bit of curiosity has already heard a wider variety of music than you have at, I'm guessing, 38?
>>61746454
It isn't. Give it more chances. I've heard quite a lot of music in my life (I know almost all 70s / 80s / 90s / 00s hits as well) and I can say this album rocks. Put some effort into it.
>>61746332
Yeah, nothing mainstream about having several songs on the billboard charts and having Weird Al doing parodies of them.
"Whip it" is a tune of theirs you might enjoy, I mean, not that many people have heard it but between you and me it's a bit of a jam.
>>61746548
>Give it more chances
;^)
>>61746490
>So you legitimately belive people haven't heard of slowdive, massive attack, Steve Reich?
I don't believe that. But many people didn't hear ALL these artists. Or they heard one or two tracks or them. Nobody is a god to know all the popular music in the world. The more you listen the more you realize how little you know about music.
>>61746548
None of the bad stuff I have to say about that album could possibly drive the essential point of how shitty it is home quite as well as your continued retarded endorsement.
So kudos.
>>61746627
Whatever. Your loss.
>>61746613
Except that the more you talk the more I realize just how little YOU know about music.
There is a chance that someone here never heard the Rolling Stones before too, doesn't mean posting a link to exile on main street and being like "watch and learn something" isn't hilariously cringe-worthy.
The point was that Devo were absolutely a mainstream band, objectively shown by their actual sales record as opposed to how I do or don't happen to feel about them.
I'm not saying you shouldn't post more of these expert picks. Because you totally should.
>>61746454
You've heard it all?
>>61746613
Brevity is the soul of wit. The more you boast, the more it confirms your taste is shit.
>>61746816
You know shit about music. The popularity of The Rollling Stones is far bigger compared to more niche artists like Steve Reich, Slowdive, Leftfield, Ulrich Schnauss, Massive Attack. These artists are more popular on their respective genres, outside of them, not so much. Ask anyone on the street if they ever heard of Slowdive as an example.
>The point was that Devo were absolutely a mainstream band
WERE is the magic word. These days, not so much. Some may remember them as that band with Whip It hit.
The popularity irl is quite different than popularity on the net. Just sayin'.
>>61746995
No. My taste is fucking great. If you have a problem with that, well, keep it to yourself.
>this spastic
Oh wow. I sincerely hope you're underage or you're a complete fuck up of an adult.
Anyway, I don't get the hype around Grimes. Especially Art Angels, didn't deserve the amount of posts it got on here, shame on you all.
Even if you're a cancerous waifufag like it seems most are that like her, she's not even the biggest qt 3.14 on 4AD.
>>61747126
No. Shame on you. You don't get the hype around Grimes because you're a complete pleb.
>>61747054
This isn't a "share videos of boring shit you like and get yur dick sucked" thread, you specifically chose those videos to illustrate your superior taste in a thread where every single person is laughing at you for how banal and mainstream your taste is despite your repeated and groundless claims to the contrary.
You can't look deep within your self-proclaimed superior taste and find a single band that anyone with a passing interest in music isn't extremely likely to be familiar with already? (the person on the street is irrelevant, this is a music board and we have ALL, and I repeat ALL heard Steve Reich and slowdive and massive attack here)
You are welcome to live in a fantasy world where your tastes are considered to be anything special, but don't fool yourself that you're teaching anyone anything here.
>thread is still going
Sure summer came early this year.
>>61747173
Mate, it's just another generic altpop album. Try Sylvan Esso, MADE IN HEIGHTS or Purity Ring on your breaks from listening to obscure artists like Devo.
>>61747234
Some monkeys with keyboards are laughing at me. Like a give a fuck. I'm shitposting because I can and because you're all a bunch of morons.
>we have ALL, and I repeat ALL heard Steve Reich and slowdive and massive attack here
You can't be serious. And even if they heard of them, how many actually know the deep cut In Mind? Or Eurochild? I posted these songs because I liked them. If you expect some obscure /bleep/ shit, you better expect the apocalypse.
>>61747368
Can I just ask, are you like... all there mentally? Are you okay?
>>61747236
>that meme pic
kek
>>61747327
>Sylvan Esso
I don't like her voice and their music is kinda boring
>MADE IN HEIGHTS
Never heard of them
>Purity Ring
Know them. Pretty good. Their debut > second album. I like Chvrches more t.b.h.
>>61747421
I'm OK. The main question is: are you?
>>61747368
It's more like you decided to go to the monkey cage and scream "y'all niggas don't know shit about fruits, let me put you on to this here banana" and the monkeys are laughing at your stupid outfit and throwing shit at you, but you stay there, in the goddamned monkey Cage, covered in shit going "no seriously guys, I've heard of grapes before, I know fruits".
Nobody is laughing at your tastes, we're laughing at you because you're being really stupid.
>>61747558
Fuck you nigga.
Anyone posting under this line (except me) is an idiot.

I learned the term "astroturf" because of her. I always knew there was a word for it but I never knew what it was.
>>61740674
did you pay attention to Grimes' interviews? she's always been a huge fan of Mariah Carey
>>61747558
This
>>61747558
You're laughing because you're a monkey with a keyboard. Simple as that.
Art Angels is a much more consistent and enjoyable album than any of her previous work. The music is much more complex than her earlier stuff but is also much more accessible.
>>61740674
>Is grimes complete trash now?

>>61748074

>2014: "I still remember going to the CD World and buying The Sensual World when I was sixteen. And the cover, there’s a rose in front of her mouth that has bloomed, she’s got big wide eyes. And I remember, you know, putting it in the shitty car stereo on the way home, and you know, my life was forever changed.”

>2007: "And I also— this may sound really silly— but I just discovered Kate Bush, probably six months ago, and I think she’s so great. I know I’m very late to the party here [laughs], I know this is old news, but I got a Kate Bush record, and I forget— I think “The Dreaming” is on it, though I’m spacing on the name of the record.”

What did she mean by this?
>>61742403
i dont even like grimes really but i hate st vincent and i have to interject to let you know that tweet is fake and you probably already know it

don't worry anon i think you're cool. also i hope orbus terrarum is among your favorite orb albums or you're completely dead to me.
>>61749952
Thanks. I really like Orbus Terrarum, but U.F.Orb is my absolute favorite.
>>61747126
it was going to get that much attention regardless just because it's by grimes. i think it's kinda deserved too since she reached her goal of making a good pop album, which it undoubtedly is. it's pop music though so the haters are built-in.
>>61750027
oh cool! yeah they're both great albums. cheers!
>>61743653
>>61742923
You make music fans look bad.
>>61750117
Why?
>>61740674
>now
>>61750084
I generally like all their albums, even the underrated The Dream. And of course their debut and Orblivion. Their latest album was great too.
>>61748463
fuck
it really unnerves me knowing that there is so much bullshit flying around, that I will eat gladly because it sounds nice.
I mean, I currently don't give a fuck about the new heroine Vincent, but to think that there are people out there that I trully admire and just bullshit me like that because I look up to them.
I like music.
Hey is that Grimes?! Wow, she looks very different on that magazine cover!
I'm very indifferent about her music, but each to their own! :)

Just go on RYM and find a couple of artists with less than 500 ratings and claim to listen to them, make sure they suck so theres no chance of anybody else listening to them.

Just stop.
