Does Grimeth get any radio play where you're from?

>>70991220
She's barely played on the radio. She's an indie artist, that's not surprising.

there's already one grimes general up

*breathes in*
GRIMES IS A FUCKING UGLY WHORE

>>70991220
No she's a failed pop star lol why would they play her on the radio

>>70991220
Doubt it, but I live in Denmark.

You could say I'm a cuck for Grimeth

>>70991259

>>70991257
This is for you, dipshit

>The haters and trolls have a really hard time when it comes to Grimes. It's very hard to attack her. Leaving aside that "be nice to Grimes" mantra, how could you attack an authentic artist that got huge acclaim from the whole music world, an artist respected my many of her fellow artists, an artist known for her infinite creativity? Just lame personal attacks related to her look (despite the fact she featured in multiple fashion magazines) and personality (despite the fact she donated money for charity, caring about environment and her fans). That's why they're so pissed off irl all the time: desperation and envy. Desperation and envy.

Grimes is more beautiful than Cara and she's not even a supermodel.

>>70992864
Visions is such a great album. Even those little songs (intro, Eight, Visiting Statue, Know the Way) that seem fillers are great. Grimes and synths is a perfect match.

Why is Grimes so much better than Björk? I mean, Grimes managed to surpass her in just a couple of years.
Can you imagine what it is going to be for the rest of her career?

>>70993200
Bjork is not passé. I admit I enjoy her first 4 albums much more than the artistic wankery of the rest of her discography.

>Why is Grimes so much better than Björk?
Because she's an amazing vocalist, songwriter and producer. Too many Bjork songs rely on her voice and don't have exciting instrumentals. Also Bjork has a strong voice but some vocal gymnastics of Bjork are frankly off-putting.

>Can you imagine what it is going to be for the rest of her career?
She's impredictible but I'm pretty sure I will like her future music. I enjoy all her discography, even Medieval Warfare and Go.

See what ilxor thought of her http://www.ilxor.com/ILX/ThreadSelectedControllerServlet?boardid=41&threadid=90302

I love you, Claire Elise Boucher!

>>70991198
Knowing that Claire suffers from tinnitus has really helped me come to terms with my own. You can still enjoy and make music even if your ears ring a little bit.

If you have patience to read over 2000 comments here >>70995708, you'll see that she caused some controversy even there. Some folks really liked her music, some others were baffled by her popularity.

>ILX tearing itself apart over a 6/10 album
Lol

>>70996815
She's such an inspiration

I don't get why Grimes - a nice Canadian girl - could cause such controversies on the internet...

>one of the things I really like about her is that many of the vocal arrangements/lines in one song are little hooks/songs by themselves.

>this is gonna sound weird, but i almost think visions is like love king, where like every element is its own little hook, one of the reasons i like it a lot

>i think it's obvious that she has a good, powerful singing voice and this is one of the first recent indie albums i've heard where manipulating the vocals or choosing not to sing 'traditionally' really works for it -- she's not attempting to mask or hide any sort of vocal deficiency, but a lot of times it's like you're trying to reach out and grab these great hooks or melodies that aren't pushed to the forefront... but for like the entire album. again tho i think it works because she can sing.

>>70991198
I liked her better when she had a uni brow

>>70991198
I wish she would put a little more meat on her bones

she is too skinny

Another random quote:

>Every person who listens to this record [Visions] seems to bring an intensely hears set of signifiers and reference points to it - and they're all completely different.

>Which probably means she is actually quite unique? I honestly can't think of much that sounds exactly like this so I'm always reaching, and it's possible she's never heard any of the things I project onto her voice.

This. Claire is Goddess of Love.

Yet another random quotes from that ilixor thread:

>as rich and interesting and fun as her music is, I don't get how someone would only be able to imagine her appeal as only possibly being due to her image - appealing as it may be

>I think a lot of listeners DO respond to her personality; it seems like it is a significant apart of her appeal (and certainly a significant apart of her recorded presence). I don't think that's an inherently bad thing at all, but it's something I wrestle with listening to the album, which I really love. I can't always tell how much I'm responding to her music and how much I'm responding to her overall endearing, cool-girl vibe. There's probably no need to even make a distinction between the two, b/c they're so connected.

>I have pretty much no concept of who Claire Boucher is but I really, really like this record.

Friedrich Nietzsche Quotes:

>When a woman has scholarly inclinations there is generally something wrong with her sexual nature.

>Comparing man and woman generally, one may say that woman would not have the genius for adornment, if she had not the instinct for the SECONDARY role.

>To seduce their neighbour to a favourable opinion, and afterwards to believe implicitly in this opinion of their neighbour--who can do this conjuring trick so well as women?

Really? What you do ITT it's against the rules. Are you aware of that? Or you just don't give a fuck about rules?

Banned because you're heavily shitposting. Spammers like you deserve a permanent ban.

Look you idiot: if you dislike her so much, filter these threads and get over yourself.

They don't honor the arts or the artist for what he created. It's the music business celebrating itself. That's basically what it's all about.

Stop lying. If you were for real, you would have known that she was really discussed even then. Mostly because Visions was so acclaimed and later Oblivion was voted the song of the year by P4K.

>Waaah mods ban the people I dont like they're being mean waaah mods mods mods
You're not only mean, but stupid too. How would you call someone who does the same thing repeatedly and expecting a different outcome? That's right, an idiot. You keep spamming the same crap with the same results: insults + temp ban. You never learn.

>says the guy who's been spamming the same thread every fucking day for 8 months

That's right. To be truly mainstream Grimes would have to do tons of compromises. She's too big of control freak to allow other people dictate her career. She's playing the game in her own terms, like a boss.

>Something I didn’t realize when I started making music was that any entrepreneurial endeavor involves hiring people, creating a company, and becoming a businessperson. So, while you may know me as a musician, in practice I am also a boss. I’m the CEO of two companies, Grimes Creative Corp and Fairy Tour Corp, and I just started Roco-Prime Productions with my brother. This is simultaneously very cool and very stressful. I’m definitely not the best or most experienced boss. I’m also a young, female boss, which can present a very particular set of practical and emotional challenges. Here, I’ve compiled a list of things that have been useful to me while I’ve been figuring out how to be in charge, in the hope that some of them might help any of you who are doing what I’m doing (aka learning as you go).

Get the hell of here with that stupid argument. P4K is a music publication writing about music (mainly indie music), Grammy Awards is an organization awarding the "best" recording artists of the year. Apparently they awarded so many times the biggest sellers (e.g. Adele) not the best ones. That "best" thing is completely subjective anyway.

They're not the same kind of organization.

Grimes is always trying to keep up with the joneses, just take a look at her shoes(adidas superstar) She does everything to turn a lot of heads, she has even cried wolf saying that she was sexual assaulted. She's the worst 'artist' I've ever met. Her place is in a playground.

Lol what a moron. Can't you read?

>>71009273
Exactly. Grimes makes music for connoisseurs, not for the masses. The masses couldn't even understand most of her music (imagine your ordinary pop fan listening to SCREAM and Eight...). She would have to dumb down all her quirkness to have mass appeal.

>>71009288
They're just second hand trolls. I can do better trolling than them.

>>71009361
This. If you're trolling at least be creative.

She was nominated to Polaris Prize but didn't win. Recently Juno Awards (the Canadian Grammies) announced that she was nominated for 2 categories: alternative album of the year (AA) and best video of the year (KVM). I hope she wins this time.

Grimes is not quirky for the sake of it. She has great tunes to support that quirkness. e.g. Oblivion without whistles and bells still sounds amazing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Se0hqGl94U

Grimes is doing synthpop right. I can't wait for her new album.

Did you notice that quirky synth sound at around 4:15 at Flesh Without Blood? It's just one note thrown there. I wonder how many little easter eggs are in her music....

>You wouldn’t describe anything she’s put out to date as terribly commercial, but there is something singular and unteachable and deeply fascinating about this person. The thing here at :33 or so where she’s guerilla-shooting the “Oblivion” video and offers a cheery wave to a confused onlooker trying to walk in front of her is the best dance move of the decade thus far.

>this album is absolutely my favourite of the year tho. I can't remember being as immediately and consistently besotted with a record. it is pure energy. most of the discourse around it seemed way off to me, but lindsay zoladz's line about it being superhero music for introverts deserves a and mb expansion. there's something v nourishing about it, a source of power I have been continually diving into. it's both hugely expansive in the range it covers and incredibly dense and fast-paced, she really charges through it – the percussion is the key secret ingredient giving it a radio/dj set energy – & the whole thing is such a blast, it's been something I've just played it over and over (and I'm not really the looping type). I maintain that righteous is the best description of the vox. the depth & layers are still there but they're also pushed right into the foreground which gives it an immediacy and all this wonderful high drama that wasn't possible in the older stuff. so much of it is pure exhilarating release; if you skipped at random there's a good chance you'd land in a moment of her holding some long vowel sound over the top of the roar of whatever enormous machine she happens to be piloting. this being balanced of course by her supreme poise elsewhere: coolly dispatching all-comers when she comes in on world princess pt 2, or that impossibly exquisite flattened singing on the verse of butterfly which butters you up perfectly for the chorus - which is the point on my first listen at which I threw my hands up and decided there was going to be no accounting for this album bc it's just too much.

>>71019069
>I was content with my own untranslatable private obsession with this album, but I was chatting to my now-distant best friend I grew up with, who doesn't chat much about music and afaik had never expressed any prior knowledge of or interest in grimes, and he totally unprovoked started raving about it, and I felt that warm glow of satisfaction, which I have disavowed in the past as cheap adolescent tribalism, but which I think can be a legit recognition of that shared experience, knowing he was hearing it just right and feeling the same way. anyway this album just rules, I am so happy about it

>The more I listen to Visions, the more and more I feel like it’s one of the most complete records of 2012: it’s swirling and mysterious, it draws you in but doesn’t spell anything out for you. I listened to “Genesis” maybe 20 times before I was even able to pick up on the lyrics; the more I listen to it, the more it sounds restless, like someone who’s realized they’ve outgrown their home. Or take “Oblivion,” which buries its fear under layers of ominous synths and layers of vocals. It sounds so unassuming, then Grimes hits you between the eyes: “Someone could break your neck / Coming up behind you / always coming and you’d never have a clue.”

>Think about that tune; compare it to her above comments. She’s been there, come out the other side and is pointing out truths I’d bet half her audience never thought to look for. And it’s done in such an unassuming way: rather than a band like The Knife, who dress everything up as a grand experiment, layering everything in unfamiliar sounds and textures, Grimes makes the same message bluntly, with a catchy, dance-influenced record. The video for “Oblivion” has her standing alone in a mostly-male dominated audience, ears covered with headphones. Sometimes she’s being shoved around, other timesGrimes1 people are passively showing off their muscles in front of her. Her message couldn’t be more overt, but she’s not making it seem like it’s being pushed on the listener.
