Next album gonna be more "slow and reflective"

literally queen of avant-garde pop

locked AOTY 2017

How do I express my scepticism towards this whole happening without actually bashing a woman what would be dishonest?

Hmm, I don't know, the whole stuff comes over kind of forced and try-hard-like, Idk

something is wrong with this stuff

AOTY 2017 is already established. Grimes couldn't make bad albums even if she tries.

>>68902585
so basically Björk

I fucking hate Grimes

What is wrong in being like Bjork? Bjork is a good inspiration for any artist. You should be thankful there are more interesting artists like her.

>>68903005
you must be nice to grimes

Remember when she said her next album after Visions would be more aggressive and experimental? Remember how that didn't happen? Take her comments with a grain of salt, she'll probably just become even poppier.

>>68903402
>aggressive and experimental
so Art Angels?
did she released any album between art angels and vision that i don't know of?

She is fucking pathetic. Good on her for excellent marketing thought.

>>68903454
Aggressive? maybe
Experimental? Hell naw

>>68902585
>I’m probably going to try to be more involved in the behind-the-scenes work
this implies that she doesn't even make her music ALL BY HERSELF, like you grimesfags are always trying to say

>>68903565
what the fuck you talking about
this means she's gonna be more like a producer
grimehaters are fucking dumb

>>68903609
so... she doesn't produce her own music right now? like you grimesfags are always trying to say?

>Remember when she said her next album after Visions would be more aggressive and experimental? Remember how that didn't happen?
What about Art Angels? She said in 2012 right after Visions was released:
>I think my music is becoming a lot more aggressive. I’m going more in that direction.
http://www.electronicbeats.net/the-visions-the-voice-an-interview-with-grimes/

Art Angels is both aggressive and experimental. Initially, she wanted to make AA a double album:
>She then went on to say: “I’m kind of thinking about making a double album, half-way crazy experimental and half-way pop. I’m trying to figure out how to do it well.”
http://www.nme.com/news/music/grimes-54-1231527

She kept some experimental elements in the final version of this album.

Almost positive James Brooks and BloodPop helped her with the production behind Art Angels. Especially Brooks. You can here a lot of his breakbeat influence on AA. In her New Yorker article, it says that she was going to cover On Fraternity.

Grimesfags btfo.

>>68903504
>Experimental? Hell naw
So, an album with a screaming song, an alt rock song, a country song, 2 classical songs, etc is not experimental at all? Dude, Grimes was always experimental pop. If you expect more experimental than pop you're delusional.

>>68902585

>>68903565
>this implies that she doesn't even make her music ALL BY HERSELF, like you grimesfags are always trying to say
No, you idiot. It means she will produce for other artists and she will not sing/perform as much as before.

then dont reply? hide thread?

Not the OP, but what fucking filters do you have? The keyword "grimes" appears in the OP's post.

>It means she will produce for other artists and she will not sing/perform as much as before.
okay. whatever helps you sleep at night

>>68903745
They're not credited, so everything is just a speculation. It's more likely they trained her to improve her producing skills, but they weren't involved in the actual production of the album. You just have no idea what a huge control freak is Grimes.

>>68904060
If you think she's not producing her own music, you better prove that, pal. Say it now or shut up.

Im such a fucking idiot /mu/. Such a fucking idiot. I got 10 comments into this thread before realizing that this was Grimes, and not St. Vincent. Fuck me.

>>68904191
WTF?! What do you mean? Are you the OP?

>>68904229
No I mean I was browsing /mu/ in the catalog form, saw OP's picture, assumed it was Annie, and went into the thread and started reading, assuming it was about St Vincent

Guys I wanna make my text notification beef heart saying 'fast and bulbous'. Any suggestions on how I could go about doing that

Tbch sometimes they look quite similar. Don't be sad anon, Grimes loves Annie:
>obsessed w this super distorted horn sounding guitar sound and st. vincent generally, i wish she would do like a guitar pedal tutorial

>>68904101
she was talking about her own project for the entire interview. even the sentence i took that quote from is talking about her own project. let's use occam's razor here.

although i don't expect you to be capable of logical thinking when it conflicts with the pristine reputation of your infallible God.

>like you grimesfags are always trying to say?
Trying to say? It's already established, it's an undeniable fact, bruh.

You just don't get it. She talks about her project Grimes as separate from her person. Grimes is Grimes, Claire is Claire. When she said she will do more behind the scenes work, she meant she will put less emphasis on her Grimes project and more emphasis on her production/songwriting for other artists. Or maybe even making just instrumental music.

>At the time, Boucher spoke of Grimes as a business venture – a sort of Svengali-meets-singer deal in which she played both parts, exploiting her own self for her own ends. It was an idea that highlighted her creative clout, but it was also a coping mechanism, forming a pop-star proxy to deal with the invasiveness of fame.
https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/oct/31/claire-boucher-grimes-art-angels

>The hardest battle Boucher faces is the struggle to be recognized as both the public-facing pop star, Grimes, and the technical mastermind behind the scenes. An architect of her own illusion, she's always handled every aspect of the production and packaging of her work, and the same goes for her new album. Boucher wrote, produced, performed, and engineered everything, designed the artwork—and Art Angels also welcomes a new range of instruments into the Grimes repertoire, including guitar, keys, drums, ukulele and violin, which she learned to play for the record, plus 14 unique illustrations to accompany each track.

For those that don't get the idea what Grimes is about:
>Around the time she released the homegrown clip for “Vanessa”—a poppy, angelic-sounding single from a 2011 split release with Montreal musician d’Eon that would become her first real breakout track—the idea of a “fake pop star” would emerge: Grimes as a fictional character played by Boucher, crooning songs that the real-life Boucher had written for her to sing. “I didn’t want to be a pop star—I wanted to be like Phil Spector,” she says, pointing to her natural shyness. “I wanted to be the person behind the scenes who no one ever had to look at—who just could be crazy and be a genius and have a performer fulfill their creative wishes. But that wasn’t possible, so I just had to do it myself.”

>By the end of 2013, the nonstop touring schedule had left Boucher on the verge of physical and spiritual collapse: “There was a point where I remember putting a hand up and grabbing a piece of my hair, and I could just pull my hair out,” she says. “I was, like, beyond exhausted, and I was just really unstable, and it was just super uncool. It was at the point where it was going to destroy Grimes.”
http://www.thefader.com/2015/07/28/grimes-cover-story-interview

Grimes is not Claire Boucher, it's just her main project.

Mark my words: Grimes is not going to disappoint. She knows that her next album is her ticket to legend status. If this album will be a masterpiece like her previous 4, her place as one of the defining artists of the decade is assured.

guys I re-listened to Art Angels after thinking it was girly noise and it finally clicked.. went back to listen to her discography front to back and back to front and I random tracks have been ringing in my head

f-fuck im a grimesfag she is amazing how do i escape this, how do i satisfy my needs

>>68905610
Cool to hear that. That's the trick: listen to her music enough times and you'll become really addicted. Dear haters, take note.

>>68905610

>>68905677
I think she has another chance to redeem her career, but she will need to release the next one after the bad album fast (she has lots of unreleased music anyway). I bet her next album will be so undeniably awesome that even the haters will have to admit its greatness.

>>68905652
>Art Angels
Favorites (in no particular order): Belly of the Beat, Realiti, Venus Fly, Life in the Vivid Dream, Butterfly. It's insanely hard to choose one, I really like the project as a whole. I never skip a track.

>Halfaxa
Dream Fortress, Devon, Swan Song

>>68905858
>>68905861
Haven't listened to Darkbloom yet!

For Visions I'd say,
Genesis, Oblivion, Circumambient, Be A Body, Nightmusic -- this album is also very easy to listen to entirely. Tracks 5-8 could be one song. I never get tired of Oblivion, I don't get it.

>>68906090
On Darkbloom only the first 5 tracks are hers. The others were made by d'Eon.

>I never get tired of Oblivion, I don't get it.
4 years later, still not tired of it. It's a perfect song.

It's all synth-pop. Just because she used some guitars doesn't mean that this song is a rock song, it's called alternative dance, I can assure you that guitars has been popular among radio pop artists for a long time.
And there's no classical songs as well, those two songs are art pop, and they're just short intro and interlude, I mean its not enough to call the whole album art pop.
This album is clearly leftfield, but not that experimental.
