Grimes should retire

>>69943173
Why?

She should hire session musicians next time.

>>69943309
No. She's doing fine on her own.

>>69943122
she's the best

she /mu/'s lorde or something ?

>>69943844
Dude, Grimes posted about Lorde before most people heard about her. To answer your question: Grimes is /mu/'s new Bjork or Kate Bush (/mu/ still like these 2).

>>69943929
I think I remember giving her stuff a go a couple years ago after seeing her hyped up alongside Zola Jesus ( which I thought was a tragic waste of potential ) and I only seem to remember gabber-sounding drivel with jajajaja I'm an urban witch-type vocals. Was I just not looking at the right stuff ?

>>69944054
>Was I just not looking at the right stuff ?
Indeed. Not only her albums are different to each other, but they have nothing to do with "gabber-sounding drivel". Her music is a synthpop/dreampop hybrid with influences from IDM, R&B, medieval, J-pop, industrial, ambient, classical.

i'm not good enough for grimes

>>69944054
no you were right it's all pretty mediocre

>>69944054
what did you listen to? I suggest Art Angels

>>69944627
this

>>69944764
I can't find it anymore so I suppose it wasn't Grimes but I think I was close enough with the urban witch stuff, the tracks used for her music videos are what soundcloud would sound like if it were a genre.

I don't dislike it but it kind of feels like an odd " what would happen if we made records only using stock FL studio plugins ? " experiment.

I'll give Art Angels a shot later today.

is it true (You)s are gone?

>>69945043
>I'll give Art Angels a shot later today.
Report your thoughts on this album after that.

>>69945788
checked

>>69945816
What. The. Fuck. The (You)'s really are gone

what the fuck hiroshima you fucking hack can you do anything right?

>>69945842
>>69945788
Who told you that?

>>69945852
the other boards.

>>69945872
why would you need other boards when /grimes monopolized your favorite place on the internet desu?

While looking in the archive I found this old thread and read the whole thing.

You guys are so defensive. Do you love CRJ and other female top 40 pop in truth or do you feel like your standards are higher?

>>69946613
>You guys
>implying the grimes fanbase think like a single person
Some Grimesfans like CRJ too, some hate her, some don't care. Nothing unusual.

i'm not sure what to think of grimes anymore. people just love to troll her fans so hard

>>69947768
It's viceversa. "People" (other moo-tants) are really triggered by the simple mention of her name. The joke's on them.

>>69947799
yeah that's totally what i was referring to anon

You said:
>people just love to troll her fans so hard
It's just an illusion. They're not in control here, they just troll themselves. That explains the large amount of these people being really mad and naming the Grimesfans as the worst fanbase. Why they do that? Because they trolled themselves hard...

Grimes looks a little like a girl I had a crush on in high school. She had a bf already.

Grimes pictures make me a little melancholic.

>>69948306
she's like someone i could feel close to. do want

How brave you are.

I replaced it with a less vitriolic version. It's not about bravery: I pity your pathetic life.

They're just delusional. They would do anything to deny their true feelings: they secretly admire her.

What is her most beautiful song?

>>69952644
I always feel something good when I listen to "know the way"

>>69952540
I think it'd be cool to get a coffee and have a chat with her weekly. And I find her attractive. But she just needs to go away with the terrible music.

I've had a love/hate with her since after she released Go. Everything she's done after musically, visually, and from a performance perspective have just been a step in the opposite direction of her potential she had with Visions and then Go.

Pretty accurate actually. Although I'd swap "you just don't like it" with "you misinterpreted where I was trying to go."

Beautiful lyrics

What would you do if Grimes called for all straight cis white males to be killed? Would you kys?

Stop asking stupid question, bloody idiot.

>The lyrics of Boucher’s songs are often emotionally charged, but sometimes the cloak is so iridescent that you don’t immediately notice the dagger lurking beneath. “Oblivion” was written after an incident of sexual abuse that she experienced in Montreal a few years ago. “I was literally in tears when I sat down to make that song,” she says. Four hours later, she had translated her trauma into a digital-age cult smash with a message that reached millions (18m on YouTube and counting). “For me, that’s the best motivation for music. You’re turning emotional existence into a product that people can understand, and you get a high off that. I think the first reason I make music is that it’s a therapeutic way to deal with things. I always make the best shit when I’m upset. If you start off really upset and you work and work till the sun is rising and you are finishing, you can tell it’s really universal and it’s this great thing... That high is unbeatable; that’s the greatest fucking high on planet Earth.”

>>69954512
Some specific songs having some specific traits =/= all her discography. Stop generalizing.

>>69954635
And there are people who hate this kind of person. She could be an inspiration to anyone.
