what does /mu/ think about Grimes?
>>65778739
pretty talented. would personally like to see her become more experimental than just regular pop
>>65778739
isnt it obviouss?
half of them are retarded fanboy waifu fags
the other half is either misogynistic or hates her because of the aforementions fanboy fags
in truth, she's a ok producer with music ranging from bad to meh, with some standout tracks here and there
Visions is a decent album but I'm not interested enough to check out Art Angels.

honestly visions is a great album.
and i dont even wanna fuck her
>>65778825
Nice cop out. But your butthurt is showing:
>in truth, she's a ok producer with music ranging from bad to meh, with some standout tracks here and there
She's already pretty irrelevant and wont be long until she fades into musical obscurity and is forgotten. sad but true
>>65778884
Okay... if you say so...
visions was okay, art angels is a turn towards the wrong direction
>>65778874
not a cop out, her /mu/ fans are massive faggots
>>65778984
It is, when you clearly have an agenda.
I pointed out how you were wrong, and so far you're the only one behaving like a massive faggot.
Tell me: is your tactic to combat this "massive faggotry" by being one yourself? cos that is kind of stupid anon...
>>65779112
i'm of your argument, and think it might be b8, but i'll bite anyways.
like i said before, i speak in generalities about the FANS not her MUSIC (not sure if you didnt realize this, if so, apologies)
for every one post actually discussing the quality and merit of her work, there are 10 posts with needless shitposting about how much they want to fuck her, smell her feet, etc., and this translates to a great deal of the "haters" focusing on the level of cringe perpetuated by the rabid fanboying.
is this a bad thing? it annoys me, yes.
now, as for some "agenda" that i'm trying to shit on grimes or something, well, you're wrong, friend. it's more so that i simply don't enjoy her music. her production work is alright and while i don't consider them to be "good", i respect her early efforts like geidi primes and halfaxa for the experimentation, i do not like her new work as i don't enjoy the pop sound or her vocal delivery. i can see why other people do, and thats perfectly fine with me.
anyway, hope this clears things up :)
>>65779182
Kinda was... But it worked perfectly. Thank you :)
Here to mirror what has been said in the thread already.
Visions is good, everything else she's done is eh.
>>65779349
>Visions is good, everything else she's done is eh.
Let's agree to disagree. Everything she has done is very good.
>>65779182
You shouldn't ascribe the haters to the fandom, there's other female musicians talked about on here too who don't seem to have many unironic haters at all hmm.
>>65778739
Grimes is secretly patrician.
>A fairly regular Vancouver kid, with interests like anime, Harry Potter and Mariah Carey, it was during her adolescence that, as Garossino puts it, “something very strange happened.”
>“She changed into some kind of super-brain, exploring the internet all the time.”
>Teenage Boucher’s obsessions ranged from space travel, to the twelfth-century composer Abbess Hildegard von Bingen, to Russian existentialist lit. She crushed so hard on Dostoyevsky that she even flew to St. Petersburg to attend an intensive Russian immersion.
>But as with Grimes’ music, Boucher preferred autodidactism. Garossino recalls hearing Boucher teach one of Chopin’s nocturnes to herself, bar by bar. But only through the wall—at the time, Boucher had too much stage fright to even play the piano in front of her mother.
>“Something that people don't understand about Claire is her searing intellect and focus,” Garossino said. “Whenever you think you've figured her out, she's already three moves ahead. Things are never what they seem.”
>Her mother related how at McGill, the wunderkind wanted to take physics, but couldn’t stand introductory courses. Instead, Boucher entered higher-level classes and studied the prerequisite material at the same time. “She would nearly kill herself studying—surviving on almost no sleep for weeks at a time.”
>“And that's how she makes music today. In long, solitary blasts of blistering intensity.”

Pleb as fuck
Well this is bullshit i wanted to waifufag.
OP did you really need to make this thread? if you're in /mu/ for a day you'll figure the answer out, she/her music are discussed here almost every day

I think I'm the only one here who likes Art Angels more than Visions.
Both are good though.
>>65779448
meth
>>65779448
she sounds pretty based. What you recommend listening to get into her, given I havent heard anything from her. Who would you compare her to so i know what im getting into?
>>65780460
nope
>>65780530
Try Visions first. Then, if you prefer a poppier sound, check Art Angels, if you prefer dark dreampop, check Geidi Primes and Halfaxa. It may not be instantly likeable, but it's worth the effort of getting into her music.
>>65780530
listen to visions
>>65780634
Art Angels is almost as good as Visions, tbch. It's just a different style.
>>65780680
production wise it's even better, but I'm not into the style songs like california or flesh without blood
right now I'd even prefer listening to Halfaxa over Visions, but it's probably because I've listened to Visions too much and I'm a bit of a sadboy recently
>>65779448
sounds like a female fedora lord desu
>>65780292
I like Art Angels a lot more, it's the weirdest. Kill V. Maim was very important to me.
I'm starting to like Visions. I never got into it wayback when.
She looks like a female Davy Jones to me
Never listened to her music but I fucking hate her fan base on here
Message to all Grimes fags; go out and get laid
Also she's really fucking ugly so I don't even understand why people obsess about her like that
Also she's a malnourished weaboo
>>65780933
>go out and get laid
i have in-house pussy, why would i need to go out?
>Also she's really fucking ugly
she's definitely an acquired taste, but i honestly think she's very attractive.
>I don't even understand why people obsess about her like that
oneitis.
>Also she's a malnourished weaboo
i still like her music.
>>65780933
Your hate speech doesn't do you any favors. Stop shiposting, go out and get laid.
>>65780535
Claire is kind of intimidating.
>>65780995
I have a girlfriend, will do tonight thanks anon :^)

Grimes is secretly a lighthearted person.

>Burning calories
Grimes! You need to hold onto every one of those that you got!
>>65781089
I mean it doesn't feel very human like.
>>65781243
Her kindness i mean.
>>65781274
In what way? What makes it not very human like?
>>65781292
It's just really hard to believe, it's pretty much alien like.
>>65781564
Grimes is legit quirky. One of the reasons why so many love her.
>>65779448
>Teenage Boucher’s obsessions ranged from space travel, to the twelfth-century composer Abbess Hildegard von Bingen, to Russian existentialist lit
Cringed
>>65780530
Def Visions, maybe Art Angels depending on your taste. Leave Halfaxa for last, it's easily her least accessible. Geidi Primes is decently accessible, but it's kind of lo-fi so if that's not to your taste then it may be a bit difficult to listen to at first.

this is her best song
>>65782838
???
These are very interesting obsessions.
i liked that album, not very original but very comfy with nice melodies, the rest just doesn't do it for me, art angels was pretty bad but that's just my humble opinion
pic related is what /mu/ thinks of grimes desu
I get the feeling she probably has a stinky vagina.
>>65785604
>>65784551
What that has to do with music, degenerate waifufags?
>>65785682
She's not mai waifu. Having a stinky vagina is a bad thing.
>>65786273
What that has to do with music, degenerate retard?
>>65786317
it has to do with hygiene. She's unhygienic by my estimation.
>>65786421
>my estimation.
Keep your estimations to yourself. No one cares.
>>65785682
>>65786317
>>65786717
Wow, it's actual quality Grimes thread without shitty memes and other crap.
Impressive.
>>65787229
