when i heard about grimes on here i was excited to go listen to her because sometimes /mu/ actually rants about amazing music. but alas, i was met with some cringey anime pop that i could picture a pizza-faced, pedostached, $15 carpenter jeans wearing high school outcast jamming out to in the back of his decelerated math class. solid 3/10 music.

Her music is spacey, so.....

>>70342434
It's about Joan of Arc and he mentions Grimes in passing as a "popular musician". How can you not admit that to use this as an accolade for Grime is reaching like fuck.

>>70342608
It's not reaching at all. The fact remains: David Byrne collected pictures with Grimes and other artists. Why do you have a problem with that? FYI Byrne collaborated with the /mu/ approved female artist St. Vincent, so that shouldn't be surprising.

>>70342707
>David Byrne collected pictures with Grimes and other artists
So? My point was that that quote isn't a quote about Grimes, let alone an honorific. What I have a problem with is you guys using spurious things like this to support your narrative that Grimes is the best or most important musician in the world. I don't even dislike her; I think her music is decent. And I have no problem with other people liking her. But putting baity things like this about her in your OPs only puts me off her if anything. You guys are like the ISIS wing of Grimes fandom.

when do you think the venus fly video is gonna drop?

>What I have a problem with is you guys using spurious things like this to support your narrative that Grimes is the best or most important musician in the world.
Did we say that? At best we said she's the best musician of this decade, not of all time. And we're using whatever means necessary to support our arguments.

e.g.
>Interviewer: What young artists do you feel an affinity with? I heard you're a Kendrick fan.
>Joanna Newsom: I loved the latest Bjork album, I'm excited about the idea of Grimes. I haven't wrapped my head around the record. I find her so compelling and so unlike anybody else and so incredibly talented, skilled, and fun. I love her. I met her in LA a few months ago, she told me something along the lines of, "I grew up listening to your music". I will say, it made me feel really old for about five minutes, then it made me feel really happy. I was like well, I guess I'm old now, but that's okay because this awesome and amazing young musician likes my music and said that it was special to her when she was younger, so that's great.

If you're a naive person (easily influenced), maybe this board isn't suited to you. You're delusional if you think some anons care that some "baity" words put you off her. We could believe and say whatever we want, remember freedom of speech?

i like them more than generic pop songs through a cheap reverb filter with nasally whining over the top.

>>70351773
So, you're a pleb

>generic pop songs
Similar artists?

More than 80 posts, and NONE OF THEM relate anyhow to Grimes' music but are literally only useless spam, just as kpop is not about music. This just goes to show that you are bunch of waifufags that only masturbate to her and don't care about her music whatsoever. Pathetic, these threads are becoming just like kpop general, which is a shame since Grimes has some music worth discussing. Well, adding "grimes" into filter. Bye.

>>70351799
subtract the 'intentionally shitty recording quality+lots of reverb' aesthetic that she relies on to differentiate herself and it's literally no different than any other synthpop.

>>70351753
>not as forward-pushing and experimental as her peers

>The golden mean, the truth, is no longer recognized or valued. To win applause one must write stuff so simple that a coachman might sing it, or so incomprehensible that it pleases simply because no sensible man can comprehend it.
— Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, writing to his father in 1782

Her music is between pop and experimental. By the way she never claimed to be 100% experimental. What it really matters is the actual music: her music is marvellous and emotional. She found that golden mean mentioned by the good old Mozart. That's why people adore her.

>certainly not as attractive as them either
What that has to do with music? In any case, many people love her appearance. The beauty is in the eye of the beholder, bruh.

/grimes/ respect this rule. If you don't like it, fuck off.

I don't mind meme threads, the problem with this kind of thread is that grimesfags like to convince everyone they like her because of her music and how her music is of such great quality but when you come to a /grimes/ threads you see it's only waifufagging, circlejerking and incoherent shitposting. Meme threads acknowledge they are memeing and that's fine, while grimesfags won't admit that Grimes is a meme (just like that crusher girl) but try to push her as a legit artist and you can't do that without actually discussing her music like we discuss in other artists' threads who are not memes. Do you see normal discussion in "Does /mu/ like death metal" ? No, because it's a meme.

>>70352360

>>70352443
You have a point but don't forget you're in a /grimes/ thread so you'll get attacked for this post whatsoever.

w/e at least grimes posters don't have anger issues over people talking about a musician.

anti grimes posters blow a gasket every time, every single time.

>>70352443
>you see it's only waifufagging, circlejerking and incoherent shitposting
why
there's also always music discussion in these threads

there are also daily grimes threads outside of /grimes/ where people serioulsy talking about her music
wtf are you talking about

>>70352443
Her music is great regardless of the meme status. She's a meme because she's very interesting and popular. The meme status has NOTHING to do with the quality of the music (e.g. 21p are pretty bad, yet popular; Bjork is great and popular, just like Grimes).

>the problem with this kind of thread
The problem is that you don't filter what you don't like. Her general threads always have her name posted, so what's your excuse now?

people think its a green light to hate posters for talking about grimes because they're the autists with anger issues.

post anything positive about grimes in an anti grimes thread and then suddenly we're the bad guys so haters come in here and start raging about what..? nothing coherent.

>>70352486
The Grimes fans are actually chill most of the time. It's the haters that "blow a gasket every time". Later, you could see them whining that her fanbase sucks because they were btfo.

>>70352569

Ya. I know why - because they like finding people to bully.

>>70352238
so his iq is negative now. that's even worse !

>>70352443
BTW anon, you must be new here. Every single thread about a female artist is doomed to have shitposting. Didn't see those Bjork or St. Vincent threads that consist mostly of memes, pics, shitposting and hateposting?

>grimesfags wondering why everyone hates them

Because nobody likes spamming and forced memes. Every now and then someone will try to force an album or an artist to become /mu/core or loved by /mu/ and they'll fail because forced memes were never successful on 4chan. You don't see people going on other artists' threads to "rage" and "hate" as you describe it because those artists aren't spammed aggressively and inavsively all over the fucking board (>>70348484 this "proud" faggot) and there aren't 100 threads created about them every day. But sure, it's cute how grimesfags think the problem is in everyone else and they don't even question their own behavior. Really mature and doesn't show their underageness.

>>70352631

Ok I did that. But to be fair it was in retaliation to real hate posting.

I feel bad for people who refuse to get into her music. There's so much beauty waiting to be unraveled. These are the same kind of people that rejoiced on her every misstep (e.g. that Coachella performance when she was super criticized).

what's not normal about this wrist?

>>70353938
i can't see that wrist. also that's a different picture in a different position

>>70353020

She's a celebrity so it wouldn't be a good idea to do a lot of stuff in public because of paparazzi.

I dunno. I wonder if she's a good DnD player? I would like to play DnD with her people.

>>70353902
1) it's not a boob window
2) it's just a random photoshoot for magazine
3) it's not even her own sweater

Reminder that even Elton John is a fan:

The icon is well-versed in today’s music and always open to new collaborations, namechecking an eccentric young rapper. “There’s a new act, who I love, called Young Thug, who I think is fantastic,” John said. “He’s brilliant.”

Other acts John’s into these days: Hudson Mohawke, Grimes (“Her second record — Art Angels — is a brilliant record”), Chris Stapleton (“Tennessee Whiskey” is one of the most surprising things I heard last year), Kacey Musgraves, and FKA Twigs.

>Grimes: ‘I want to remake cult sci-fi movie ‘Dune”

>The electro-pop artist, who has referenced Frank Herbert’s 1965 sci-fi novel in her songs, claims it would be her “dream” to make a new film version. David Lynch previously brought the book to the big screen in 1984. Grimes told Bust magazine: “I want to direct a full-length film of Dune. I liked the David Lynch version, but everyone knows that he didn’t really care about it. I just feel there isn’t really a great Dune movie in the same way that there’s a Lord Of The Rings movie. I think by the time I’m 50, it’ll be time for another Dune movie, and I’d love to make it. That’s the dream of my life.”

>>70356106

The thing is - apart from being the Björk of her generation - Grimes is also the David Bowie of her generation:
http://www.baeblemusic.com/musicblog/1-19-2016/is-grimes-the-true-spiritual-successor-to-david-bowie.html

And the Prince of her generation:
http://www.nme.com/blogs/nme-blogs/grimes-glastonbury-set-proved-bowie-and-prince-s-maverick-spirit-lives-on

And the Brian Eno of her generation:
http://www.nylon.com/articles/the-meadows-2016-review

And the Beethoven of her generation:
http://www.papermag.com/grimes-jimmy-fallon-flesh-without-blood-1778648997.html

And - perhaps most aptly imo - the Kurt Cobain of her generation:
http://www.undertheradarmag.com/interviews/2014_artist_survey_owen_pallett/

All of which is to say that, with so many apt comparisons to be made between Grimes and such a diverse list of musical luminaries, the only real conclusion you can make is that she must also share in the one thing that all these other people had in common: being a musical luminary.

>But putting baity things like this about her in your OPs

>Here I was expecting someone brimming with whimsy, but instead she was a 24-year-old girl; rather down to earth and just coming to terms with the concept of fame. The fame that brings David Byrne of Talking Heads to your shows. When his name came up, Boucher was absolutely ecstatic, like an excited little puppy. “The tour in America was fucking insane. David Byrne being there was crazy. I kinda wish I knew he was there before the show… But then again if I did, I probably would’ve been really nervous.”

David Byrne has been a confirmed Grimes fan for at least 5 years. Face it, anon - this thread isn't bait.

> the best artist of this generation

Geidi Primes wasn't even the best album of 2010 by fair margin.
Visions was just above average 80's synthpop nostalgia rehashed a few decades late.
Art Angels showed us that she has no interest in doing anything but becoming a mediocre psuedo popstar who will just coast off releasing the same album for the rest of her career.

Grimes ran out of steam before most of us even knew who she was and she stays relevant because of her waifu status, and just like every waifu before her, she will just be cast aside when the "new & hip" waifu comes and replaces her.

In ten years, Grimes will be a piece of interesting trivia amongst thousands of others.

Wrong, wrong, wrong.

>Geidi Primes wasn't even the best album of 2010 by fair margin.
It was her humble debut. Still amazing. Also you forgot about Halfaxa (2010) and the EP Darkbloom (2011).

>Visions was just above average 80's synthpop nostalgia rehashed a few decades late.
Having synthpop influences =/= 80's synthpop nostalgia rehashed a few decades late. Her brand of synthpop is unique and includes influences from other genres such as r&b, idm, ambient, medieval, classical, dreampop. If you believe Visions is generic, post a similar album. BTW Visions was super acclaimed by those people who matter.

>Art Angels showed us that she has no interest in doing anything but becoming a mediocre psuedo popstar who will just coast off releasing the same album for the rest of her career.
Bullshit. AA was different than anything she had done in the past AND it was a triumph (her best sales, her biggest acclaim, her most successful tour).

>In ten years, Grimes will be a piece of interesting trivia amongst thousands of others.

It's that these ''discussions'' always seems to be started by teenage girls. There's something in her music and appearance that makes her fans think that they know something about music and arts. The word ''Grimes'' makes me cringe only because of what I've seen on /mu/.

>>70369110

Go reread what I wrote.

I'm not saying that there aren't ANY similar things between them AT ALL. Merely that the things on that list aren't them. It's a list of completely unqualified equivalences - not even similarities.

>>70368948
Yes. She's just an indie artist. No one should expect massive popularity when it comes to her.

>>70369259

What's wrong with teenage girls having a discussion, you sexist pyg.

Should I tattoo "Grimes" over my fist

>>70368979
Let's say there are bots (even it's way harder now on FB). How many of them "liked" her page without being detected by FB's system? 1000, 10000, 50000? More? Less? That's nothing compared to the total number of followers.

Grimes? Whatever happened to Kelly Rowland?

>>70369259
>There's something in her music and appearance that makes her fans think that they know something about music and arts.
It's the fact that it's so well done. It gives the listener/viewer the strong impression that THEY themselves are/were somehow involved in its creation/continued existence. It's the central value that all artists strive to communicate - self-identification.

>The word ''Grimes'' makes me cringe only because of what I've seen on /mu/.
Not sure if this is meant to be a diss at /mu or not, but if it was then imo it's totally warranted. /mu tends to be an awful place - through and through.

>>70369259
