True shit anon true shit. Kill v maim is the best song grimes ever did. And the one with janelle monae is just amazin to blast in the car
>>65551895
Kill v Maim, Realiti, Easily, and Belly of the Beat are all pretty good to me. But some of the songs on the album *cough*Scream*cough*Laughing and Not Being Normal*cough* are enough to ruin my mood if I don't press the skip button fast enough
>>65552558
Fuck off Artangels Easily Kill V. Maim Realiti World Princes part II are all fucking crazy songs.
>>65551895
i dont really hate grimes. her music is pretty boring to me and her new stuff (especially AA) seem like radio friendly pop, with just enough bizarreness to appeal to starbucks-tier hipsters. her best work is her pre-visions days.
that being said, its not her i hate. its the people who shit post her on here. its all cringey and desperate, with "daily reminder to be nice to grimes" "i want to smell her feet" and whenever you try to criticize her, "dont bully grimey". i've never seen one of these people give any actual reason the think her music is good and it leads me to believe they're only obsessing because she has an odd attractiveness.
>>65553892
no normal human thinks grimes is attractive
the only Grimes album that's somewhat listenable is Geidi Primes and even that's a chore
good for poptimism though as her big hit songs are quite enjoyable on their own, despite the album they belong to being utter poo
probably because grimes is a dumb bitch and is shamelessly exploiting her fetal alcohol syndrome for likes and shares from tumblrites despite having no talent and memepits
Grimes looks like helga from hey arnold
>>65553892
its just jokes man relax
>>65554333
>implying helga isnt a 10
i want to die :3
>>65555759
i doubt most of them are
>>65551895
That's right. It's AOTY 2015 IMO.
>>65554159
Stop listening to shit music and maybe you'll get Grimes music.
>>65557283
You must have listened to one album.
>>65557789
Around 100. None of them were better than Art Angels.
>>65557789
It's in the top 10 of all critically-acclaimed lists. Get with it and just admit your defeat! Come out of your dreamworld!
OK, maybe Art Angels isn't really the best album of 2015. No one has time to listen to millions of albums to see which one is the best. But no one can deny it wasn't a major critical success of the last year.
cause she makes bad music but is popular anyway
>>65558065
weeb opinions literally do not matter
>>65558117
what about weeb opinions on anime or like japan things?
>>65551895
It is good, but grimes is hideous so it's fun being mean to her.
>>65558130
is it hard trying to be cute when you're massively fat and 30?
does it ever feel funny?
>>65558158
i dunno probably
>>65558179
>i'm only 29
>i'm only 80 pounds overweight
yeah, ok
i've seen the pics
>>65558205
really you thought i looked older and massively overweight?
Fuck off with these "be nice to grimes" fag threads it only makes me hate grimes more.
>>65558231
i think you're 30 because you look 30
i think you're massively overweight because you look massively overweight
>>65558245
i believe youre thinking of someone else dude lol
im going to hit her with a hammer
>>65558272
lols dude i don't think so
you were the one who posted them...
>>65558293
ok then well im actually 19 and 160 lb 5'6" i dont know where that puts me but yeah id like to trim up so maybe i should do it sooner than later
take care
>>65551895
it's not bad, but it's her worst album
>>65553729
>implying Scream isn't in top 3 from this album
>>65551895
Art Angels belongs to Soundcloud. It's cover exactly captures what it sounds like—amateur weeb pop turd. It should be illegal to sell such amateur crap for the price of a normal album.
>>65558241
Good. You indirectly admited that you never planned to like her music. "Big loss".
>>65558655
Bullshit. That album featured on multiple AOTY lists, you fucking turd. Do you think these critics are all stupid and you're smart? Think again.
>>65558065
>cause she makes bad music
Prove it.
>>65558901
Yes, I actually do. Because calling Art Angels good is absence of taste. It is hyped both by p4k who have turned into a feminist joke and the rest of press who push Grimes as a new "star". All while it's a very mediocre album by a mediocre musician which also has the most amateur production popular music has seen up until 2015.
>>65557862
>>65557903
It's not even in the top 50 on rateyourmusic haha
>>65559004
Why don't you just admit that you don't get this album? It's not a very mediocre album coz you believe that.
>the most amateur production popular music has seen up until 2015
Just wtf? The album has a glossy production. I don't think you listened to it tbch.
>>65553729

>RYM
lol i'm talking about actual music critics who know what they're talking about, not some hipster faggots.
>>65559107
>implying rym isn't a bunch of morons
They underrate almost all the new albums. Only if a legend dies and leaves one last album, that album is overrated (see Blackstar).
>>65559107
The disconnect between RYM and the real critics is pretty big. RYM didn't like Art Angels but the real critics did. And I'm sure af that the latter category has more relevancy.
>>65559110
Oh lookie, p4k wasn't biased at all
>>65559272
So what? You don't know that the actual ratings are averages of many other reviewers? That's why you get ratings like 7.1 or 8.9 or whatever. It doesn't matter who wrote that review, almost the whole P4K liked that album.
>>65559272
And by the way, great that she's an advocate for gender equality. It's a good thing, way too many males are abusive towards women.
>>65559388
> way too many males are abusive towards women.
Well that says everything about you right here. There's nothing left to say. We try to discuss actual music here
>>65559548
>We try to discuss actual music here
>posts a screenshot with a P4K reviewer and highlights that she's a gender equality advocate
U wot, hypocrite?
EXPLAIN THIS
WHY NO VIEWS HUH
WHY SUCH A DROP
BECAUSE SHIT SUCKS
>>65560061
I'm convinced most of those views come from the few spergs who sit on here all day posting "be nice to grimeth"
>>65559548
>We try to discuss actual music here
Except you've been discussing music critics, not the actual music.
Try again.
'cuz Grimes is the musical equivalent of JLaw.
Happen to love both, but the similarities are staggering.
>>65559344
nah, the number is based off individual reviewer choice (but editorial vetts it)
BNM is a popular vote amongst the staff. Can't remember if it needs 51% or 3/4ths or full consensus or what.
>>65560164
Jennifee Lawrence is an ugly cow and a man that cant act.
Claire Boucher is at least hot.
Fans of Grimes are the most insufferable creeps on this board. They cling onto the fantasy of fucking Grimes, when in reality, they're 30+, overweight and would be rejected instantly by any girl. especially a rich feminist

And Art Angels was BNM. Just like I said: P4K as a whole liked the album, not only the actual reviewer.
>>65560239
>implying that few creeps = all Grimes fanbase
Get your fact straight, faggot.
>>65559127
>>65559134
>>65559168
Funny, because there are a lot of critically acclaimed albums that are forgotten. And let me guess, you must love Kendrick lamar since he ranks higher than Grimes on every 2015 list, right?
>>65560331
Its about the drop from 10 million to kne million.
They even had to change the song completely for the video because she KNEW it was trash.
When the album forst came out all the normies fell for the positive reviews. As time passed the truth was spread.
Art Angels sucks and Grimes is a hack.
>>65560410
her videos with more views are older dumb ass, the older the video, the more time for it to collect more views
>>65559127
>>65559168
But the disconnect isn't big. They usually agree with critics. They only differentiate when the album is really shit (see Grimes)
>>65560435
Listen here little girl, the drop from 10 million to 1 million over 6 months is because shit sucks. California will be lucky to get to 3 million, ever.
Show tits
>>65560383
Album of the year mate, everyone knows that.
>>65560441
OK then guys, Grimes is shit, you're right. Your medal is in the post. Wont stop me enjoying it though.
>>65560478
yeah it is not as good, but it will still get more as time goes on. Also I'm not a little girl or a grimes fan, sorry to disappoint
>>65560370
Why do you think I didn't mean the whole fanbase? Of course I did. If the current Grimes' threads aren't mouth-breathing virgins, trying to cum at the thought of Grimes, it's those exact people trying to convince others that she's not just all looks
>>65560530
>implying they arnt the same people
>implying its not just me
>>65560529
So just a fag huh
>>65560497
I wasn't dissing Lamar. I just know huge Grimes fans will bring critics into every discussion but fail to realize that Kendrick lamar is seen has much better and revolutionary than some Canadian white cunt.
>>65560555
Yeah I actually am
>>65560599
AIDS kills fags dead
I hate Grimes' music but I genuienely feel sorry for her because she has to deal with a fanbase this autistic.
Seriously, grimesfags need to leave
>>65560561
You don't sound like you've ever loved her. It's a disgrace!
>>65551895
This is the only grimes album i like.
I fucking LOVE this album.
>>65553892
Even though I dont have the same kind of knowledge of her music as this guy, I can understand this criticism of her / persona whatever
>>65560383
Actually not. I can't stand Lamar at all. Your point is invalid. I like AA because it's a really good album, that's all.
>>65560435
Exactly. The idiots compare old videos with new videos and say they don't have the same views. The idiots don't think that the older videos had more time to gain views.
>>65560441
>They only differentiate when the album is really shit (see Grimes)
It's not. Their reviews are shit. They're too hipster to enjoy a super-catchy album like Art Angels. Their loss.
>>65560820
>>65560873
Point is you two talk shit about RYM when they very much mirror critics lists. So you either hate both or not
>>65560410
>They even had to change the song completely for the video because she KNEW it was trash.
Absolutely bollocks and based on nothing. She remade the song because the original didn't fit well with that video concept. Stop bullshitting.
>>65560929
>they very much mirror critics lists
I don't think they do on the newer releases. On the older releases, maybe yes. Same old The Beatles, King Crimson,...
>>65560813
>This is the only grimes album i like.
>I fucking LOVE this album.
I got into her older shit eventually. I didn't expect to continue liking this album to be honest.
/mu/ is full of normies kek
>>65561002
Are you retarded? look at their 2015 list. Each of these three artists were spammed by critics last year
>>65560561
>I wasn't dissing Lamar. I just know huge Grimes fans will bring critics into every discussion but fail to realize that Kendrick lamar is seen has much better and revolutionary than some Canadian white cunt.
Your hate against Grimes is showing. We bring critics into discussion because critics are supposedly the neutral third party. I say that Grimes is great, you say that she's shit, who's right between us? Let's see what critics say about this: critics love Grimes. I win, you lose.
As for Lamar, he's just an ordinary rapper. When he will make soundscapes as amazing as Grimes' productions, we will talk.
>>65561074
Are you retarded? Why Art Angels wasn't high on that list too if you say they mirror the critics opinions? Art Angels was very, very acclaimed album by critics. Where is it on that RYM list? Or maybe many RYM users are also /mu/tants that hate-voted AA? I remember the tons of negative ratings when the album was barely out. That speaks volume about their reputation. Fuck RYM and fuck /mu/.
>>65561095
>>65561163
If critics are the neutral third party, Kendrick is better than Grimes. Find a critic's list that put Art Angels above To Pimp a Butterfly. By the way, The Quietus didn't put Art angels even in their top 100 of 2015, and they are one of the most respected music review sites.
>>65561214
>Find a critic's list that put Art Angels above To Pimp a Butterfly.
Stereogum, NME, Exclaim, they all put AA at #1. But most of critics overrated Lamar as hell. It was 2015's version of MBDTF aka the most overrated album of the year.
>>65561409
Then don't fucking bring up critics to defend your point of view when you don't even agree with artists that they like better than Grimes.
>>65561409
And notice how both lists, and RYM, rank Kendrick and Sufjan is the top 3
>everybody in this thread being mean to grimes
just stop
grimes has done literally nothing to you to warrant this behavior. im starting to think that asshole in charge of arbutus built a team of shitposters to try and turn this board against her like he did with mainstream media.
>>65561470
I bring them. Just the simple fact that Grimes in #4 on that list that you posted in the attachment, speaks volume about the album's quality. Just look on what league it's fighting: Lamar, Sufjan, Curtney Barnett, Jamie xx, Tame Impala. And yet, there are people saying that AA is shit. Pfffffffffft.
>>65561163
Mellon gave it 7/10
Scaruffi hasn't reviewed it
Exclaim and Now gave it 10/10 and 5/5. Both are Canadian outlets.
Guardian, for example, gave it 6, Rolling Stone—7, Slant—7. Most outlets gave it around 8. The ratings on metacritic are inflated by some no-name blogs like "coke machine glow" that gave it 100.
why do people even listen to critics? who gives a fuck what somebody with completely different taste who's lived a completely different life thinks about art.
form ur own opinion. its the only one that counts.
>>65561545
It's not shit, it's mediocre. And critics overate things and years from now those same albums are forgotten. I can GUARANTEE that Grimes will never have the same huge and influential legacy the Lamar will have.
>mfw grimes became the Banana Image of /mu.
Genius.
>>65562401
grimes is not a meme
she's a real person with real feelings. think about that before you post next time.
>>65551895
I am nice to Grimes and this is my favourite album.
>>65562678
So are 7.4 billion people living on Earth
>tfw you are a malnourished weeaboo
>>65561665
You're deluded. Grimes will be the new Bjork. Bjork also started her solo career by doing quirky electropop.
>>65561603
>form ur own opinion. its the only one that counts.
Apparently it doesn't count on this board. Just look many shit on your opinions. At least the critics are supposed to know better about music.
>>65564198
why would i care about people's opinions on my opinions
is there anything more worthless in this world?
even /v/ and /tv/ know to not give a fuck about critics.
>>65563451
and those 7.4 billion people aren't being called memes just because they make nice music and people like it.
>>65564994
OK, you don't care about critics' opinions. Then what you care about? About other users' opinions? How could you possibly prove that Art Angels is a good album or bad album?
>>65565055
no, i just care about art. i don't pay attention to other people's opinions, its a waste of time imo.
>how could you possibly prove that Art Angels is a good album or a bad album
why does it have to be proved? why cant everybody come to their own conclusion by themselves?
>>65565021
you're somebodies meme, ive been accused of being one too
>>65565091
>why does it have to be proved? why cant everybody come to their own conclusion by themselves?
There were long debates about this album. No one would agree about a consensus.
Why discuss an album if everyone already have their own opinion? That means that mu is pointless.
>>65565180
because the discussion shouldn't be whether or not something is good. that's shallow pointless discussion that gets nobody nowhere and offers no new knowledge.
the discussion should be about perceived meaning, and where you think claire is going to take the grimes project next.
what do i care if some anon from australia thinks AA is bad because reasons?
>>65560410
>They even had to change the song completely
It was Grimes' idea to change the song. Label chose California for music video, but she doesn't think it was the right choice as she couldn't imagine any visuals for it, so she did a new version to fit the video.
>>65565236
Explain that to that autist. He has his own bullshit theories.
>>65565236
don't forget that it was plagued with technical issues and was rushed and shot between kvm and flesh without blood. so now the video doesn't even have any meaning and according to grimes
>it's now a meditation on the color red
>>65565235
It pisses me off that many called AA a bad album without offering any reason why they think it's bad. "I don't like it" is a more legit reason than "this album is shit".
>>65565327
Venus Fly is the next single with a video.
>>65565353
Anons think they can cultivate taste by hating on things
>>65565533
/mu/ is always about hating music. I'm wondering if they ever enjoyed a piece of music for real.
>>65562678
is this some post-post ironic bait? I'm actually confused.
JUST ACCEPT THAT SHE'S THE GODDESS, THE TRUE AND ONLY GODDESS
>>65565715
if everybody was nice to grimes, we could try to get her to join a thread.
i'm doing my part by combatting shitposting with cold hard hitting facts and reality.
actually this thread isn't too bad. I don't think I've seen a single outright creepy post.
>>65566585
not gonna lie I'd like to see that. if only because it would take about 3.5 posts before kpop posters flooded in and started giving her (you)'s about licking her feet and then the media would catch wind of it and make a huge debacle about it.
>>65566710
Why people can't talk decently about Grimes? Why so many heated arguments? Is she that polarizing?
>>65567046
because she does what she wants instead of pandering to the audience of hipster numales who would rather have her making ambient goth music for years until they get bored and she is forgotten.

It's because her music is a 6.5 at best but trolls don't want people to talk about her so they constantly make threads about how she's a 10/10 to annoy and piss off other people. You're simply getting baited into an argument no one is defending or arguing.
>>65567384
I unironically think Grimes is 10/10
I have never vibed with an artist this much. Visions is the only album that's made me cry. So, sue me.

it can only end badly. look what happened when that one anon tweeted lavren a /mu/ thread about chvrches.
>>65567384
>It's because her music is a 6.5 at best
Hold on: from where did you get that rating? To see if your rating has any value.
Listening to this for the first time. First Grimes album I've listend to, too. What am I in for?
>>65568885
A very sweet sound. I almost got diabetes listening to it.
That's a good thing btw.
>>65568885
It's very catchy. But listen to Visions too, which is darker and weirder. That album is fascinating tbch.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwycwmNROxU
>>65570861
yeah but think about it for a sec
she probably knows absolutely jack shit about this place except for it's reputation as the worst place to exist on the internet. To normies this might as well be a deep web pedo board browsed by an army of Elliott Rogers.
she probably wouldn't even click the link.
though, thinking about the kind of person she is, maybe she might want to see it for herself. she's not really the easily offended type, but with her fame it's entirely unpredictable what would happen.
if pitchfork even catches a whiff that she posted here, it's guaranteed they'd write some stupid article about how she's literally vagina-hitler. it's not like she needs to add even more fuel to the fire that is the media hate against her.
then you have to worry about how quickly shitposters would try to drive her off "for the kekz". you can bet people would post low hanging fruit misogynistic (you)s, and then weird creepy ass sexual posts, etc.
and that's IF she didn't just completely ignore it. Maybe if someone could explain the appeal that she could be as raunchy and toxic and political with a very small handful of fans as she wants and yell at the poop, she might actually appreciate that. A return to something she hasn't been able to really do on the internet since 2012.
To be quite honest with you family, if it were ever a thing to happen, this thread is probably the most optimal one we will see for a long time. There aren't any creepposters or bjorkposters. There's some actual discussion going on. If you REALLY want her to browse here and not immediately leave after the first post, this is probably the most opportune thread to do so.
>>65571638
it's better for her to avoid this place ffs
>>65551895
I think Grimes loves me!
>>65571734
i don't disagree
i was explaining why i dont think its a good idea to the guy i was replying to.
i just also threw in that if he really wants her to post here, its the optimal time to do so. find out when she's playing tonight and then tweet her a link to the thread.
thinking on this, you'd probably raise the chances if you screen capped key posts in this comment chain and sent her an image of the conversation, too.
>>65571807
> find out when she's playing tonight and then tweet her a link to the thread.
should say
>and then tweet her a link to the thread a few hours after she's done
>>65571734
Way too many creeps and way too many haters. She better posts on reddit, which is much cleaner. The Grimes subreddit is actually a nice place and the users really like her.
someone make the attempt.
at best, we break /mu/ for an hour and make history.
at worst, she does the same thing lavren did and we have a laugh.
most likely, absolutely nothing comes of it.
you might have a better chance of getting james to post here with claire.
>>65561163
You're assuming that there's this big difference between "critics" and random assholes writing blog posts or rating on RYM. There's not. You're living in the internet age, my man, these "critics" whose opinions you so cling to are just spoiled, entitled, ignorant children just like everybody else.
The only difference is they, unlike random assholes on RYM, are part of a big, economical music-and-rhetoric machine, and actually stand to win something by promoting someone marketable.
Don't kid yourself. Critics these days are not writers, not artists, not scholars. They're confused tumblrites spewing slogans for a paycheck from Daddy Big-Media-Conglomerate.
>>65572457
This. So much this.
Although, critics have never been anything BUT alternative marketing. The only "critics" who matter are philosphers who pose certain questions on the back of their criticism. Not people who just blatantly share their unwarranted opinion.
well i tweeted at her with a throwaway
https://twitter.com/jessicakrady/status/741468840983285764
so there's a 5% chance she'll actually see it and a 2% chance she'll care. but I made the attempt. now we wait and pray.

well now we have the duty to keep this thread alive for as long as possible.
if she sees it and decides to come on, it'll probably be in a few hours. maybe curiosity will get the better of her and it'll be an "adventure" for her and hana to partake in.

I mean it's not bad. It's just really average I guess. As far as pop goes it's pretty standard. It just doesn't interest me as much as it does others. It might be her voice. There are other things I'd rather listen to.

you trying to let us speculate whether we can physically take advantage of you?

It's a great pop album and people on /mu/ don't like pop. It's like when you show a great jazz album to somebody who doesn't like any jazz they will say it's shit. And don't even get me started on posts which go "it's radio-pop but it's also hipster/different/edgy" They just say stuff like that because she has her own sound but they still want to use the term radio-pop so they seem smarter.
