In this thread we discuss everything about the fantastic artist Claire Elise Boucher.
>>
how you rater her looks? 10/10 for me
>>
who?
>>
>>71726518
She's shit and Grimesfag are the worst thing to happen to this board.
>>
>>71726608
why?
>>
I have a friend who went to high school with her. Apparently she was a real manipulative bitch
>>
Artangels was okay, haven't listened to anything else by her
>>
>>71726619
Because they fill this board with their dumb waifufaggotry. At least KPop can keep it to one thread, even if I want that to be banned too.
>>
Keep it /mu/ related.
Her favorite track is Kill v. Maim, yours is _________, fill in the blank. Mine is Be a Body, Belly of the Beat, tied.
>>
>>71726592
my future wife Claire Bushae
>>
>>71726630
but not every grimes poster is a waifufag, and kpopfags never discuss music, so this comparison is not relevant
>>
>>71726518
she truly is the Marina of this generation
>>
>>71726676
That doesn't explain why every one of her threads turn into waifufaggotry
>>71726707
They don't actually talk about her music
>>

is that a nipple i see?
>>
>>71726737
>That doesn't explain why every one of her threads turn into waifufaggotry
because there are some waifufags who don't even care about music? yet again, not every grimes poster is a waifufag

It's just that good, not to mention, I never heard Grimes before everyone around here got their panties in a bunch, so I had to find out. TheN, MIND BLOWN.
SO, it's all the shitposters fault I even gave it a listen, thanks fags!
>>
>>71726772
You completely missed the point
It doesn't matter if two of you actually want to discuss her music, it gets drowned out by the waifufags

Grimes is an amazing musician, but her art is much more than just a music, so that's understandable.
Also artist discussion is allowed by rules.

Seems like the definition of flanderization in music.

Was watching her perform songs from Visions live, and she seemed totally focused, managing all of the equipment, constantly tweaking everything and actually singing. You could tell she created it.

Been searching for newer performances and she literally just hits a button in all of them then jumps around on stage kicking her leg up in the air about five hundred times while singing off-key.

Talk about fame corruption.

You all act as if her music is brilliant because you want to pound her pussy. Her music is good, some of it is very good (referring to Halfaxa), but it is NOT amazing and it is NOT some fantastic innovation in the music scene. She's not doing anything that is new, if you know about the history of electronic music even slightly you would know that a lot of what she does has been done before. I'm not saying it's derivative, but it's certainly not pushing any fucking boundaries.

Every generation needs to "rebel" against their parents somehow. But what do you do when your parents rebelled against THEIR parents so hard that they still pride themselves on noncomformity and anti-commercialism? Naturally, the pendulum swings back, and the answer is in acting willfully inauthentic, cliqueish, superficial, materialistic and generally yuppie-esque. It sounds like something out of some mediocre dystopian satire, but there you go: the terrible roots of the "hipster"/twee/tumblr ethos.

So, adding to the flavor-of-the-week garbage heap of Crystal Castles and Lil B, we have Grimes, who repackages what Boards of Canada already did better a decade ago ("hazy" nostalgic recontextualization of muzak) with added "detached" blank facial expressions, memes and ironic metal poses. Basically brain poison. When I'm old I hope generation Z realizes this stuff (not grimes in particular, who will be completely forgotten in 5 years) is soulless pap and discovers guitars again.

you people are unhealthily obessed with this artist so much so that you describe your enitre experience with music in terms of grimes. There's nothing noble about it, it's just flatly ignorance. It's not condusive to good discussion on this board, and it's time to stop.

The fact is that there are middle schoolers who play guitar better than grimes, her primary objective with the instrument is using it as a fashion accessory

Guitar is a secondary instrument, after synths and samplers. Her songs don't demand complex guitar riffs; her playing supports the songs.

>You took that rating out of your ass. Not relevant.
hey friendo heres a little protip: numerical ratings in music are always going to be completley arbitrary

calling her 5/10 was my nice way of saying she's painfully mediocre bordering on just straight up bad

That's just your dumb rating, not a fact. So, it doesn't matter.

Bjork is a group? She's a "solo" singer/songwriter too. But she's not that talented if she can't do her music on her own (she's a freaking SOLO artist, ffs).

Virtuosity in music often comes along as soulless, imo. Is it INHERENTLY bad? No, but it is the least essential component to writing a good song.

I think that Grimes is the best female artist. Anyone could post a better female artist?

Favorite? Hard to say. She did a lot of wildly different stuff.

Commercial sort of stuff:
