Grimes video of the day:
https://youtu.be/gbCQKudXzBE
What is her best song? Album? Live performance? Who would you like to see her collab with?
Remember the golden rule, treat others as you would want them to treat you. Grimes would never be mean to you.
Try to keep it music related, and be nice to Grimes!
what's up with her harsh noise album
fuck that's written like a structured general copypasta
i wonder if there is more dreamy Grimes song than Heartbeats
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvXkx3IcOi4
>>66289307
She re-united with Aristophanes for Scream last week.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pp-eqI0qO3o
>>66289553
it sounds bad
>>66289553
I feel like Scream could have been done so much better. The vocals are just grating and the rapping is off-rhythm
>>66289307
>What is her best song?
Hard to tell. Maybe it's Be a Body.
>Album?
Visions, followed by Art Angels.
>Live performance?
Glastonbury 2016.
>Who would you like to see her collab with?
Aphex Twin, Royksopp, Ulrich Schnauss, The Field, Orbital, Slowdive, FSOL, Boards of Canada
>>66289536
No, although I prefer the live studio version myself

Also, you can see Mac creeping around shooting music video footage in that video..

>Blood Orange and Kanye
>>66289912
I think her voice would fit with Blood Orange well, and I personally believe anyone can collab with Kanye and make it work
>>66289944
I puked it all out
>Who would you like to see her collab with?
Faun or some other medieval folk ensemble. Imagine Grimes singing magical faery hymns with old timey instruments instead of computer music.
>>66289886
>>66290065
He never smiles, and he isn't frowning, so that's a seal of approval for the ole grimey grime
>>66289912
Blood Orange might be neat. Kanye would be a disaster though.

Her best song is My Sister Says the Saddest Things

I don't like him, but even I know that he likes to be considered as crazy, not ok

>>66291073

>>66291073
what do you mean??
:^)
>>66291457
Grimes's beauty is underrated.
>>66291507
how so?
we on /mu/ have daily group fap sessions of grimes
also young grimes >>> current grimes
>>66291543
So many called her ugly, goblin, monster, and so on. Some ugly early pics doesn't make her ugly. Her beauty is unusual.
>>66291640
It was deliberate scenic image.
she was almost 10/10 when ~14 years old
>>66291596
GET OUT
>>66291714
Erotic and artistic at the same time.
Rate her dancing.
>>66291775
Not a fan of the dancing. Seems like it distracts her from singing and makes her loose her breath. I don't like her back up dancers either. Their moves aren't that interesting and they're not photogenic people.
>>66291777
Love this one. Perfect.
>>66291839
>Seems like it distracts her from singing and makes her loose her breath.
Yes. But her dancing adds so much to her shows. She should hire someone to manipulate the gear so she can sing and dance all the time. Seriously, she's dancing better than her dancers...
>>66291640
>some ugly early pics doesn't make her ugly

>>66291893
well she was professionally trained in ballet for like eleven years so
>>66291917
My bad for my shitty English.
>>66291917
everyone can take pictures in weird angles/angles that make them look pretty. Same can be done to make something ugly.
Grimes worst photos are just shitty skin with acne and some facial hair in weird placed light source.
Also lenses. Try selfie closeup with smartphone front camera. You will look like ayy lmao.
>>66291946
Yeah, she's got some nice moves. Also she usually moves very fast.

!!!!!! Rules of Grimes thread v1.0 !!!!!!
1. Be nice to Grimes
2. Don't call Grimes cute or adorable
3. Don't post whether you would 'fuck' her or not
4. Grimes is not your waif(u)
>>66292079
grimes is my cute waifu and I wouldn't fuck her because she looks like shrek
>>66289307
>What is her best song?
Skin

>Live performance?
Ave Maria
>Who would you like to see her collab with?
James Blake
FKA twigs
RZA
Japanese Breakfast
Autechre
>>66292079
That first rule is very important.
>>66292132
You just broke all 4 rules...

IF YOU ARE NOT NICE TO GRIMES THEN GTFO FROM THIS THREAD
I couldn't get past 30 hours of not sleeping, I don't know how she can make to the 72hr mark, at 30 I felt misserable

>implying Claire isn't bipolar moody bitch herself
>>66292680
just do speed
Grimes sounds like the past, present and the future of music. Medieval chants along futuristic sounds, pop melodies along strange soundscapes, siren-like vocals along groovy basslines. What kind of sorcery is this?
>>66292799
like ulver but for 14 years old girls
>>66292734
I don't know I'm not willing to sacrifice my mental health for grimes yet
>>66292862
Nope. You mistake her cute voice for bubblegum pop. She's above that shit. Honestly, she's so underrated (literally) on /mu/.
>>66292937
>underrated on /mu/
basically half of the board traffic. Show me other artist that consistently goes over 300 posts daily.
>>66292996
Literally underrated. Her music is not appreciated enough; it's regarded as some pop stuff when it's clearly much more than that. She's more genuine and better than 10 usual singer-songwriters put together.
>>66292799
Its a sorcery born from an open mind, unpolluted by formal music training.
>>66292010

The Ballet Militia seems to have been one of the side projects Claire was pursuing as an excuse for avoiding dealing with her sudden fame as Grimes post Visions success. The project's 2nd release was going to be the 'Be a Body' music video that she eventually decided to shelve, for unknown reasons (all of this is mentioned across several different interviews she did that I can't be bothered to find at the moment.)
>>66292799
Fwiw Jim Morrison pretty much predicted the existence of Grimes more than 45 years ago - with alarming accuracy. Skip to around the 39 minute mark:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZpuFr8XSoI?t=39m [Embed]
>"I guess [...] the new generation's music will be - it will have a synthesis of those two elements and some third thing. Maybe it will be... it might rely heavily on electronics - tapes. I can kind of envision maybe ONE person with a lot of machines - tapes and electronics setups - singing or speaking and using machines."
- Jim Morrison, The Doors PBS Critique show (April 29th, 1969)
>>66293290
1. Shame about that shelved Be a Body video. That song deserved a video.
2. Indeed, Jim Morrison predicted the future of music precisely. I'm glad that Grimes exists.
>You can continue to throw your buzzwords at the screen like spoiled toddlers but the fact remains: this album HAS and will continue to change music as we know it and be remembered as time passes.
>Nobody has ever made such a charismatic, intelligent, insightful, innovative and creative album since Homogenic or Kala. Furthermore, you can continue to hate this by proclaiming it's a product of "poptimism", but the fact remains, it's so much more than that. It's honest. It's emotional, it's vulnerable. It's as real as it gets for progressive pop in 2015.
>It's very experimental and not many will give it a chance because Grimes is an easy target to make fun of, but furthermore, it truly deserves all the acclaim it has and will get in the future.
>Hate all you want, you know objectively it's 10/10. The instrumentation, lyrics and concept are like no other.
Thoughts?
>>66293751
Who said that?
What is Grimes' most emotional song?
>>66293479
you just wanted to see claire's tits
exactly why she pulled it. stinky boys would just objectify her and be creepy and gross to her.
her true fans who have long since given in to her faery spell that erases gender from the brain/in some cases replaces it with femininity however would appreciate it for the art it is and we weep that because of SICKOS like you we will never see it.

Waiting for extended periods of time for new music is part of the suffering that comes with Grimes fandom.

Grimes looks stunning as Harley Quinn.
do people force these threads or genuinely like her?

I don't even know anymore.
>>66301908
don't pretend like 80% of discussion on this board isn't like that

shes definitely the hottest.
>>66301893
I think that she somehow forces these threads. I've never seen so much constant replies to basically the same thread.
>>66302332
funerals dont go all day. youd kill yourself if you went but missed grimes though.
>>66302373
People are just obsessed with Grimes, that's why can't stop posting about her. I have no idea when they will get tired of her for the next big thing. People are fickle.

>>66289307
if you could either have grimes kiss you butthole but at the risk of her being offended by your stinky butthole OR you kiss her butthole but at the risk of her feeling embarrassed about it all, which would you do. WHICH. WOULD. YOU. DO?
>>66302475
i imagine grimes literally turning chinese just to sing this song and then morphing back into her usual self. like a mighty morphing power ranger but chinese.
>>66302703

how can I be grimes

stop this mayonnaise meme pls

yeah that's not possible, I guess only thing I can dream with is being like an ethan kath
>>66302902
why? at least its better than harsh noise album
>>66302892
what if she has a stinky butt fetish?
>>66302915
dont give up on your dreams so easily. you can use hormones and chop your willy off, have a sex change. then have plastic surgery on your face to mimic claires beauty. do some singing lessons and then WOW youre grimes.
>>66302933
make sure it's been cleaned thoroughly and stuff it with mints
>>66302902
you realise this meme is older than the internet
>>66302968
I meant how to be grimes in a musical sense, also in a personality way maybe? but I'm sure she has some dark shit going on so I don't think that's cool to have
>>66302975
and dip it in mouthwash.
>>66303003
you need to suffer, take drugs and have friends dying from drug overdose
>>66303003
>also in a personality way maybe?
go vegan and post bleeding heart stuff about people of colour on your twitter feed.
>>66303033
yeah I've suffered but when I was a child, it's kind of enough, I don't know if in her level
only thing that's missing is musical talent

I find it kind of pointless t b h
>>66303119
i dont know. hanas pretty ripped. id be a hard task.
do you think grimes and hana have touched each others vaginas. theres a few pictures where they are up close to each others vaginas and all.
>>66303143
>I find it kind of pointless
then why did you ask this >>66303003 ?
if you really want to be like Grimes just follow this dream through all sufferings and be really hard-working

fuck!
>>66303336
ok, I'm 18, male, take into consideration that I'm not really sure on a lot of things and my native language is spanish so I can't express my thoughts how I want sometimes in english
all of my reasoning is based on the belief that everyone is trying their best, no one is bad on purpose, we're all conditioned into different situations by society/the direction our life goes, so the rational thing to do to me is to love everyone, I'm no buddhist monk though so I find myself still getting angry at people sometimes
I had my first existential crisis like a month ago, everything felt pointless but I found meaning in life on helping others feel better, it's all pointless in the end in the way that we will all die someday and the universe will go to hell.. but in a point in space and time you and me and everyone existed and felt things, it doesn't matter if it's going to end someday, we felt.
now I'm stuck at this, what's the best way to help people? do I just dedicate my time to charity? do I make art in hopes of making people feel better? what do I do? is there a better way? is it important to also dedicate time to make myself better, so I can help people in a better way? how important it is?
the thing is
I'm lazy and have an internet addiction, so I'm still not doing anything to help people out
so on >>66303143
I'm not sure, is music a good way to help people out? isn't it there better ways out there?
