why do you guys hate her?
She is a good producer and has a unique voice
>Unique doesn't mean it good
If you think this please leave, you must be 18 to browse this website
>>65787742
i don't, i don't know her
I have to be honest. She looks great in all of these pictures, especially the one where you can see her nipples through her dress.
I think she's fantastic.
actual dicussion, no Waifu-fags please
>>65787938
I'm actually not a waifu-fag, but occasionally, Grimes can make herself look attractive. As for the music, I liked what I've heard from Visions
>>65787742
Because that bitchs fat ass is sitting on a vintage fucking HAMMOND.
>>65787986
It's okay to find someone attractive but /mu/ is a music discussion board. so lets try talk about her music not her looks.
>>65788044
>using a Hammond
Wew Lad
god, how many threads of her do we need?
that said, art angels and visions are both great in their own ways. the first two are too ambient for me.
do you think she will be alright?
>>65788090
I'm not saying it's a good instrument, but if you saw some dumb ass chick sitting on a model-t or a frail old piano wouldn't it piss you off? Idk your not me but some chick potentially destroying an antique piece of equipment just for a "cute" picture infuriates me, just my opinion.
>>65788203
>The picture was set up and the piano was more than likely busted anyways
>Being this autistic
>>65788130
like, career-wise? or mentally?
>>65788258
both, I'm curious why she walked off stage
wow look an entire Grimes thread no fag has posted t.Ricardo or the mustache pic
>>65788289
oh, i dont fucking know. i dont think anyone will care in a week and i dont think she'll ever say why. i guess we'll see though.
>>65788346
As long as it doesn't affect her in the long run then no big deal if we don't know
>>65787811
But what about unique and good? She's just like that.
And you're contradicting yourself.
You say:
>She is a good producer and has a unique voice
(not a quote)
And then:
>Unique doesn't mean it good
>If you think this please leave, you must be 18 to browse this website
Make up your mind.
>>65787906
AGREE.
>>65788412
>Implying her production work has anything to do with her voice
>>65788462
lol, i thought that was her foot.
>>65788044
Problem?
>>65788488
Grimes played with her right foot ages ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3n8rygjczk
Just a sustained note.
>>65788588
this is some geddy lee type shit right here, wtf
>>65788203
Just to infuriate you even more.
>>65788612
Grimes is always surprising.
>>65787742
she is a poser!
>>65788990
I don't think you know what that word means
>>65787742
Because Grimes is secretly patrician. They're envious.
>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.”
>>65788044
>>65788090
>>65788203
Those "Hammonds" are godawful Japanese junk that happen to have a respected organ manufacturer's name stamped on them. Not even the good end of non-tonewheel Hammonds, and as for "vintage", it's probably '80s or late '70s. Let Grimeth sit on the thing.
>tfwgwnsoyo
>>65789125
>tfwgwnsoyo
What that even means?
i worship her
>>65789350
halfaxa makes me cum
>>65789098
This is so cringy to read.
>tfw new Grimes song coming soon
we are so blessed by our goddess
>>65789403
By cringy do you mean amazing. You will never be as cool as Claire.
>>65789125
>>65789232
>the face when grimes won't sit on your organ
is that right?
>>65789098
>Be smart teenager
>Go to best university in Canada and study neuroscience
>Do a bunch of drugs and drop out
>Make shitty pop music and perform shitty concerts to the acclaim of socially retarded neckbeards who want to fuck you and tumblr feminists who find you empowering
Also she was raped at one point or something idk
>>65789460
visually? she doesn't have nostrils
>>65789647
It was all for the best: Grimes is now a very respected artist, she's loved by critics, other musicians and fans, she does what she really likes (music, drawing, videos). She earns money from her art and she's living her dream.
>>65789844
I saw a lot of backlash against Art Angels here when it first came out but honestly it's the natural progression of her getting better equipment and better production values. I think its the album she was always going to make but she just didn't have the means until Visions blew up. 75% of Visions is a jumbled mess of ideas. Its high points hit higher than the high points on Art Angels but Art Angels is by far a more focused album.
>>65787742
Cause she's boring and insist on doing the LE OMG I AM SOOOO QUIRKY shtick
>>65788065
That's why I added the comment about Visions.
>>65790061
That's right, she always wanted to make Art Angels.
>75% of Visions is a jumbled mess of ideas.
I don't agree. Even if Visions was very rushed (her label demanded her to make it very fast), it's still a very focused album. All of its songs have their own personality (I totally can tell them apart), yet they're have a homogeneous style.
>>65790108
If you say she's boring, how come people talk about her every single day? That quirkness is not enough to justify such huge interest. Maybe her music is interesting...
>>65790242
I never said everyone finds her boring.
>>65788588
get a fucking head mic sheesh
>>65790303
You implied that.
>Cause she's boring
But if you admit it's your opinion and don't try to pass that as fact, I'm ok with it.
>you will never be a cool as Grimes
why live?
>>65790385
At least you can try...
>>65790370
Yeah it's my opinion. There are some stuff from her i like.
>>65790440
Still better than nothing.
>>65787742
Too mainstream now.
>>65790493
Yeah i guess so
I actually genuinely used to like her a lot, before Art Angels came out, before her one of her songs was in a fucking commercial. That song in the commercial really fried me, and was pretty much when I stopped respecting her. Also, she has blown up and all these endless posts about her are so fucking lame and annoying. I mean everyday, it's Grime thread after Grime thread, Jesus. And Art Angels was really weak.
>And Art Angels was really weak.
Except it wasn't weak. What's not to like about this really enjoable album? One of the best pop albums ever made, no less.
>>65790755
wait music from AA was on a commercial?
Fuck, this is why I hate living outside the US, everything I like turns out to be mainstream garbage
whatever, I'll always have Visions
>>65791121
No, it was actually one of the popular songs from Visions.
>>65791255
FUCK ME
>>65791282
I know. That's why it hurt pretty bad.
because you won't shut the fuck up about her
>ALL WAIFU THREADS MOVED TO /S/ WHEN

>>65790755
>Crying because an artist got popular and you are no longer a special snowflake for listening to her
>hear about /mu/ threatening to kill her with hammers
What the FUCK is your problem?
>>65791541
>caring at all
what the fuck is YOUR problem?
>>65791498
It doesn't matter. Her music is shit now, so, oh well.
>>65791498
It really does sound like that's why people dismiss her, but when people say they don't like new Grimes I don't think it's because she got popular, but because she changed her style completely.
Like, just listen to any song on halfaxa and compare it to a song off of Art Angels, not hard to see why people who like the former wouldn't like the latter
>>65791708
Exactly. Art Angels just isn't anywhere near the other albums. It's not just because she is more popular now and being shoved down our throats 24/7. But just to be clear, having someone shoved down your throat all the time can really turn you against them. Just saying.
>>65791612
Objectively wrong. It's still great, just different. Adapt or die, that's the old saying.
stop arguing and post cute grimes
>>65791967
Too much of a good thing can be bad but not liking someone's music for that purpose is borderline autistic
>like grimes during her ambient goth phase
>like grimes during her synth pop phase
>like grimes during her pop phase
>vibe with claire's drawings and her general chill attitude
who /grimesfan#1/ here?
>tfw you will never celebrate her birthday with her
>>65792285
I have enjoyed every asset of her creativity so far. There have been lows in her career but I can't wait to see where she goes next.
>>65790755
holy fuck you sound like such a fucking faggot
I liked Visions. That is all.
>>65792355
>>65792319
her birthdays lately have been pretty easy to crash.
good luck getting to ever see her though, they are fucking huge.
>>65791708
But what about the people who like BOTH styles? I'm one of them.
>>65788329
what's t.Ricardo?
>>65792285
Count me as one of them. I love all her stylez.
>>65792263
Over which reason? That she is shilled here 24/7? Or the fact that I don't like her new music? Either way, so be it.
>>65792425
dude I never said it was bad to like both styles, I love every LP Grimes has put out BECAUSE her style changes, but it would be easy for someone who wanted her to build off of her original sound to feel disappointed by her new stuff
the most beautiful woman in the world
>>65792467
Something fags post in Grimes threads as bait
>>65792504
I get that. What you said is correct: people that like one style of hers tend to not like her other styles. e.g. Art Angels fans not getting Halfaxa or Geidi Primes fans not getting Visions.
>>65792517
yeah def in my top 5 desu senpai
>>65792467
rabid fan (i think)
context: Ricardo Lopez (aka the Bjork Stalker) was a crazed fan who obsessed over Bjork and killed himself on camera for her
>>65792497
It's okay not to like something but not liking her because of her newer stuff is retarded. Her old stuff did'nt change because the new stuff is supposedly bad.
>>65788329
I got ya, senpai.
>>65792601
Link?
>>65792630
Well, I still like her older stuff somewhat, just not the direction she is going in now.
>>65792706
If you would be a synthpop/electropop fan like me you would appreciate her new direction. It's still electronic, just more upbeat and energetic. It's not like Grimes radically changed her style.
>>65792658
to the story or to the suicide?
(is that allowed on blue-boards?)
I want to kiss her nose and her cheeks
Is it wrong to like someones music because you find them attractive?
>>65792835
It's pretty weird. Do you feel enjoyment when you're listening to her music? This is all that matters.
>>65792863
I love her music but her looks are what made me want to listen in the first place
Her voice is pure sexy af ear candy. Irresistible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fb_0LzBv894
>>65792904
That's ok. Nothing wrong with that.
Now you know why do you hate California:
>Grimes was extremely drunk when she made 'california' and said: "I wanted to make a song that is so uncool no hipster would like it"
>>65792251
Jesus christ her tattoos are the worst.
>>65793037
the way she delivers "in" and "california" makes me swoon
>channeling Kate Bush
>tfw you'll never go from a broke junkie goth living in canada's detroit who posters in sub zero weather to pay the rent for their hovel to a pop star touring the world with hundreds of thousands of fans who absolutely adore you wearing high fashion clothing and living in hotels as you travel the world
>>65787811
So are you saying because she has a "unique" voice, that automatically makes it good? That's beyond retarded.
>>65787742
she made art angels so her shows concept will be based on that album until she made a new album. so we are stuck to watch her doing a le qwirky top 40 persona whenever she perform live
I don't hate her. Why would I hate her? I don't really like her music and she doesn't seem like the kind of person I would necessarily get along with but I have nothing against her.
>>65794594
but unique doesn't automatically mean bad
What is her best song and why it's Nightmusic?
>>65795313
>not infinite love without fulfilment
>>65795233
True, but often times the 'unique' moniker is indication of a shit voice.
>>65795343
Too short...
I have no idea who this is but it's rare to see somebody who's so incredibly ugly.
>>65795366
Possibly. But her voice is far more likeable than say Joanna Newsom.
>>65795410
Because you have shit taste in beauty and you're an ignorant, that's why.
>>65787742
She coerced her fans to get offended on behalf of Vietnamese people theyve never met and harass Viet Cong into changing their name
>>65795531
>>65795531
I still don't get the outrage at that
if I ever start a band I'm going to name it the Khmer Rouge and see if cambodian genocide apologists crawl out of the woodwork.

>>65795926
she is a cutey
>>65788329
>you will never be this comfy
>>65787742
The only reason I don't like Grimes is simply because Grimesfags spam her constantly on here, have an unhealthy addiction to her, and attack anyone else that doesn't share their same opinions
Screencap this but I think the reason Grimes had to abruptly end her show was because of an obsessive fan like some of you guys out there
>>65795951
claire is NOT cute
>>65796054
still would desu
>>65796111
dude, she's underage in that pic

She's the closest thing to sasquatch we'll ever discover. Let me go and get /x/ so they can figure this mystery out.

She's okay. Her music is better than I expected it to be. Her fans are atrocious though. That includes you and your pitiful thread btw
>>65796748
Fans having nothing to do with quality of the artist
Does grimes like john frusciante or the red hot chili peppers?
>>65796851
True, but this still answers OP's question. Or at least, I'd assume that's the cause of all the hate
>>65796895
i am the OP
>>65796932
REAL QUESTION HERE
whats the smartest solution against waifufags?
>>65797027
as OP and master of this thread I say just ignore them. I enjoy Grimes for her music but her looks are just a plus.
>>65787742
Just tired of fucking hearing about her.
>>65796932
i like short hair grimes
>>65797093

nice shrine anon. how often do you pray to her? i try for at least twice a day
>>65798980
what is this facial expression even
it looks like someone whipped out their phone and snapped a pic and she's offended but doesnt know if its okay to express it.
>>65793083
OMG (Oh My Grimes), This is perfection
grimes is cute and confident, but still has a vulnerable look to her. that juxtaposition is why people find her so appealing.
>>65792285
I like it all! 100% Grimes fan!
>>65792467
waif fag trolling
i think posting vulgar shit about her in 2012 was in the same context as this
grimes looks like she smells a bit off, would this be a correct assumption?
>>65799483
Stahp
>>65799332
I think you nailed it. That personality goes a long way.
>>65799332
i like her because when tripping hard on acid an elder god told me our souls were painted on the same canvas, which made some pathways deep in my brain so now i see her as kin desu.
>>65799726
sounds like a good time, too bad I have an irrational phobia of hallucinations
>>65797674
That feel when Grimes will never slyly offer you opium?
>>65799726
kek, sames
>>65799726
Thats sounds like a wonderful thing to experience.
>>65799913
>tfw you will never do amphetamines and dope with a relapsed grimes
>tfw you will never have to force her to take xanax to stop her from having a noided induced panic attack about the fact that she's relapsed
>>65799913
She will never turn you into a junkie and leave you washed up naked on a beach
>>65800004
it was actually pretty horrifying
interacting with something that defies description is pretty distressing if you stop to contemplate it.
>>65792285
spooky grimes is best grimes
>>65800183
I wonder was it all because of the drugs or is there something supernatural about Grimes herself? I've read numerous theories about her origin.
>>65800322
I agree, I love all Grimes's forms but my favorite is still Spooky Grimes. I would've loved to catch one of her early shows from 2010.
>>65800323
well according the the soundless gibbers of the thing that violated my mind, our canvas is a storied one used very rarely and only for great works of art.
on some level im sure its just my narcissism, but it was just so real im inclined to believe it.
>>65787742
I really like Grimes, but the more I watch of her, the more convinced I become that she is some sort of an illusion. She is just to perfect for the musical/cultural slot she is filling. She seems like she was genetically designed at the Advanced Club Kid Research Facility.
Think about it: She's "white," but she has the perfect skin, height and elegant limbs of an Asian woman. Alternatively, her features (especially nose and eyes) would be completely natural looking on a woman with dark brown skin. Don't you think she'd make a GORGEOUS black woman? I do.
She is basically the simultaneous ideal of Asian, black and white people- but she happens to have very white skin, which makes her more widely advertisable. Her face might be a little narrow and pointy to make a classically beautiful Indian woman, or other near-eastern people, but I'll bet they would still relate to her if her skin were changed into some familiar color range. Personally, I like looking at white blonds, but I'm always suspicious of them. They're constantly up to some scheme or another. And almost never does it involve making me happier.
So you missed me, ACKRF. Nice try, but until you come up with an Indian girl who has the curves of a black girl, the complexion of an Asian girl, the voice of an Irish girl and the "F it - let's just screw things up" attitude of an American girl, I won't be buying your product. So basically, I'm saying that Grimes is unbelievable. Not unbelievable as in "awesome," though I like her work, but unbelievable in the sense that I have a hard time believing that she was born of woman, and not out of some test tube in Japan. Or she could just exist as a digital avatar, not flesh and blood. Just from Canada? I've been to Canada. That's a really weak cover story.

this song is really powerful, it made me cry like I hadn't cried in years, to me it feels like medieval suffering
I just picture a poor fucking european farmer struggling to make a living after her daughter died from the plague
it sounds too like something that could soundtrack a novel from dostoyevski, everything feels absurd and pointless
I hope this song has a strong effect too on anyone here
>>65802098
It's like she captured the most depressing and cold place in the earth into a song and then made it sound angelic too somehow
>>65802098
It makes me feel kind of nostalgic.
>>65802189
a lot of her music make me feel nostalgic it can be comforting and sad because of the lost of innocence and simpler times
>>65802189
yeah I get you, halfaxa and geidi primes also make me feel nostalgic, still the cold sound that this song has makes me picture that russian scene, sounds kinda churchy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfAOUbLCSZM she has an understanding on human suffering that's very strong
>>65802265
Those albums just make me feel safe, when things are too real.
can someone post some ugly grimes so i have something to shitpost with the next time one of these threads come up?
>>65802463
oh it's kind of the opposite for me, they make me feel real when my life is fake and absurd
>>65802591
It's all in reference to loss for me, and fulfilling that.
>>65802465
just imply they're ugly to begin with, pics won't upset the waifufags you know how they be
>>65802591
>>65802463
i can see it from both sides 2bh but her music is more comforting almost sad for me
>>65803037

There lies something i really trust about her, idk. She kind of needs to be sjw, though. Her nature is exploitable for bad people it's very double-edged.

You wouldn't be able to convince anyone that you weren't the "literal trash person" here.

Same sad feeling from her song Ambrosia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZ9PeqqnQOw

Very moving.

She doesn't care about your opinion. She even has a side project named Trashique, so...
idk she might be an angel
>>65804873
Possibly.

Her Lethe EP is UNDERRATED.

Far worse, too.

They're emblematic. It's cool seeing them evolve.

Far worse? What about the image attached?

>basing quality on critical opinion
think for yourself, bozo. dont rely on other people's opinion, make an argument for itself on your own.
>>65800697
this is hot..
>>65805103
I think for myself. I really love that album, regardless of the critical opinion. Still, you can't deny that album is great, you just don't get it.
>>65805152
i love it, i just dont think getting better reviews inherently means its the better album - particularly when it's significantly more accessible than her previous ones.

drugs mate. she's been heavy on the drugs for a long time.

>i just dont think getting better reviews inherently means its the better album
True.
But when so many reviewers think it's great => the consensus is positive => that album can't be objectively bad. Same thing for any acclaimed album like Low, Remain in Light, Unknown Pleasures, Disintegration, Doolittle, The Man-Machine. The critics loved these albums and for a good reason.
