Discuss the magnificent, unique, innovative artist Claire Boucher a.k.a. Grimes.

>I'm in the zone of just throwing things at a wall. I'm trying to be unlimited by “this is sound of the album” or something. I'm trying to do the craziest shit I can, or just reach outside my comfort zone. I've been doing a song a day kind of thing. Like, get as far as I can on a song per day then start a new thing. Then once I have a various amount of things, then I'll go back and decide what to do with it.

Just stop trying to bring that fake poll. It's not even worthy of discussion. Basically an autist decided to make a poll and he and other autists used VPNs and voted multiple times. They weren't even subtle about it. They wanted a revenge against her fans.

Taking about bias: most Grimesfans weren't even aware of that dumb poll. And I'm sure some of them even voted negatively because they don't want her to be liked by this dumb board. I voted negatively too.

You know what's funny about this poll-gate? It proves nothing. Once Grimey will release her next masterpiece they will see who really is this artist. When they will see the whole catalog flooded with the cover of her new album they will remember their fake poll. Like most exit polls, this poll has nothing in common with reality.

Haters: cry some more crocodile tears.

Because Grimes is between albums. There's not much activity now and most of her fans have better things to do than vote in a stupid poll. Do that poll once she releases new music and see the difference.
>>
>>73828612
>unlistenable

Are all grimesfags this close-minded? Swans is downright catchy most of the time, if the heaviness of the instrumentals are really too much, then there's no hope for you. Hell, even Grimes has better taste then you.

>Swans is downright catchy most of the time, if the heaviness of the instrumentals are really too much, then there's no hope for you
Wot? That shit isn't catchy. And their lyrics are edgy as fuck. I'd prefer some good experimental stuff like Delia Derbyshire, Laurie Anderson, Ulver, Kate Bush's weirder albums, Ozric Tentacles, Scott Walker, Art of Noise, Brian Eno, Autechre, Can, Silver Apples, Steve Reich. This is good stuff, not that crap.

But whatever floats you boat. You already have your taste validated by this dumb board, why my opinion should matter to you?
>>
>>73828736
If you don't associate with /mu/, then you rightly didn't vote and you don't belong in the poll. That argument is over now lol. The poll only shows what the average person browsing /mu/ thinks of grimes

>Swans is downright catchy most of the time

Actually yes. After AA was released her fanbase more than doubled. The signs are here. If she manages to have daily general threads when there's silence how do you think it will be when she will release a new album?
>>
>>73828779
>that shit isn't catchy?
Have you heard Oxygen or Screen Shot? Both have very memorable riffs that make the basis of them.
>and their lyrics are edgy as fuck
You really judge an artist on their lyrics and dismiss things as "edgy". Why am I not surprised
>I'd prefer some good experimental stuff like Scott Walker
Wait, you really like Bish Bosch and shit but you can't even into Swans? Wew.

I voted against her too. I knew that poll is just a sad joke.
>I imagine that at least a few more than 20 people (who voted before you made that post) would vote for Grimes
The things moved too fast. Also the fans that were at that moment didn't give a shit about a random poll. They're not your puppets to do what you expect.
>>
>>73828823
So there were ten fans on here after Visions was released? Ok. Maybe the amount of people interested in her will rise, but when her new album comes out shitty, I doubt people will like her any more.

It's not that I can't get into them, it's about the fact I dislike their music, their lyrics, their aesthetic, their covers, their frontman. Overrated crap.

/mu/ have a big problem with her. Grimes stands against their own culture of misogyny, sexism, memes, hatred, elitism*. She's like an enclave on /mu/.

* e.g. she likes Mariah Carey, Bieber and Rihanna, persona non grata on /mu/.
>>
>>73829124

That's an exception. Most of her lyrics are poetic.
>>
>>73829289
(continued)
It's an exception because that song is about a bad thing that happened to her. The reality was harsh to her for some years in her life.

>In your videos this year, you played with these clichés of powerful and powerless female archetypes. What was that about?
>I was interested in the Japanese archetype of a female protagonist who is very small and very cute and very physically powerful. You don’t see that archetype in America. But in Japanese culture, there are female characters who can embody this girl uniform and still cut someone’s head off with a sword. “Oblivion” embodies that kind of archetype, going into this masculine world that is associated with sexual assault, but presented as something really welcoming and nice. The song’s sort of about being — I was assaulted and I had a really hard time engaging in any types of relationship with men, because I was just so terrified of men for a while.

>Is it important for you to discuss what “Oblivion” is about?
>It would be intense if it were an overwhelming part of my image. I can’t censor myself; it’s really important for me to say how I feel. I needed to put out this song. I needed to make this song. I took one of the most shattering experiences of my life and turned it into something I can build a career on and that allows me to travel the world. I play it live every night. The whole process has been positive — engaging with that subject matter and making it into something good.

That's just your opinion. Lots of people loved her new direction. Her songs became catchier but they're still punching hard. Let's say someone liked Devon and My Sisters Says the Hardest Things from Halfaxa. I find hard to believe that someone would be unable to enjoy say Oblivion and Skin, or Realiti and Artangels. It's still synthpop, ffs, just a different kind.

there are other avenues on the internet where you can sell the grimes brand.

here's a question for you:

how many years of your life have you wasted selling this failed brand?

*steps out of the shadows*

Heh... not bad, kid. Not bad at all. Your meme, I mean. It's not bad. A good first attempt. It's plenty dank... I can tell it's got some thought behind it... lots of quotable material...

But memeing isn't all sunshine and rainbows, kid. You're skilled... that much I can tell. But do you have what it takes to be a Memester? To join those esteemed meme ranks? To call yourself a member of the Ruseman's Corps? Memeing takes talent, that much is true. But more than that it takes heart. The world-class Memesters - I mean the big guys, like Johnny Hammersticks and Billy Kuahana - they're out there day and night, burning the midnight meme-oil, working tirelessly to craft that next big meme.

And you know what, kid? 99 times out of a hundred, that new meme fails. Someone dismisses it as bait, or says it's "tryhard," or ignores it as they copy/paste the latest shitpost copypasta dreamt up by those sorry excuses for cut-rate memers over at reddit. The Meme Game is rough, kid, and I don't just mean the one you just lost :^). It's a rough business, and for every artisan meme you craft in your meme bakery, some cocksucker at 9gag has a picture of a duck or some shit that a million different Johnny No-Names will attach a milion different captions to. Chin up, kid. Don't get all mopey on me. You've got skill. You've got talent. You just need to show your drive.

See you on the boards...

The purpose of art is to comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable. Bad art accomplishes neither. Good art accomplishes either one or the other for each individual viewer depending on that person's current psychological state.

there's nothing disturbing or comforting or innovative or magnificent or compelling about art angels.

You can't make people be nice to her anon. The "rules" you're talking about don't actually exist. It is completely within the realms of /mu/'s actual rules for me to say I think grimes is worthless shit. There's nothing you can do to stop me from posting this, and every time you try to micromanage this shit as if you had some kind of authority here (you don't) you're going to make me want to express my opinion more. So just get used to the fact that not everyone is going to be nice to her, nor does anybody have to.

You may say whatever shit you want. But don't expect reasonable people to agree with your dumb posts. Your dumb posts will be challenged. Better be prepared to justify your stupid actions.
>>
>>73832430
>They don't hate grimes. They hate you
Not the anon you're conversing with. But if what you say here is really true (that most of the Grimes "hate" on /mu right now is actually just a result of certain posters not liking other - most likely newer - posters) then these fake "grimeshaters" are just gonna end up either leaving /mu under their own volition (the smart ones) or eventually getting kicked off of /mu, because trolling (including that directed at other posters) is against board rules.

Pro-tip: When posting on what you hate about /mu becomes more important to you than posting about what music you like, that's how you know you've been here too long and need to move on.

Quite the opposite. Bad art has no effect on people. Good art does. Whether that effect is perceived as positive or negative is up to you. If Art Angels was truly bad art you wouldn't feel the need to critique it AT ALL - especially with such strong adjectives.

Probably none, since it's pretty clear that you've already arbitrarily decided that you don't like it. Learning how to enjoy new or different music requires having an open mind. If you can manage to have an open mind about it... probably the whole thing.

>>73833749

>>73833636
bad art has no effect on people, boring art has no effect on you. Thus, you critique it as bad art since it was uninteresting and did nothing for you. Since Art Angels is boring, and thus, bad art (very bad art), that anon felt the need to criticize it as such. Also, I see no reason why I should believe your metric for what makes art good. If it provokes either a bad reaction (to the music itself) or is uninteresting, then it's bad.

”boring as shit" is an adjective phrase, so yes.

that's a meme, the OP was having a bit of fun. It took one reply for the topic of the whole thread to turn into an argument about whether Grimes is liked here (she's not)

The topic could be changed out of the blue. Threads are fluid. People considered the OP shitposted and they turned the thread into a different direction. If you cared so much about the OP's INFORMATIVE topic, why didn't you contribute to discussions related to ITAOTS lady being the queen of /mu/??? Gotcha.
>that's a meme, the OP was having a bit of fun.
The Grimes-fans had a bit of fun too. Everyone had fun. See how easy it is?
>no double standards here, you just have a victim complex
So, you troll the people with a bold statement and an "end of discussion" at the end and then whine when other people derail your magificent shitposting thread? Lmao! Be thankful you weren't banned for shitposting.

Rules are rules. Things don't happen according to your will.

so y'all just like this shit because its different right? someone says "oh i like lady gaga" and you get to respond with a trap card. "yeah well i like GRIMES" evil laughter fills the room etc etc

>>
>>73834867
>the topic could be changed out of the blue
and that's bullshit. if you're so desperate to discuss something, start a new thread for it, don't ruin other people's discussion of it
>why didn't you contribute to the discussions related to ITAOTS lady being the queen of /mu/???
I tried, but after 1 fucking post the topic devolved into whether or not goblin lady is well-liked on a mongolian sheep shaving board
>the grimesfags had a bit of fun too
they seemed awfully mad for them to be having fun, they would at least post a reasonable contender
>so you troll the people with a bold statement and an "end of discussion" at the end
how the fuck is a meme thread a troll thread? how sensitive are grimesfans really?
>and then whine when people derail your shitposting thread
it wasn't my thread (nor was it a shitposting thread), but i still would've preferred to meme around then witness a bunch of spergs invade a normal thread and turn it into another /grimes/

yes, and i think they should be changed so better discussion can occur

It can't be bad ART (you can still dislike it) - by definition.

Let's be real: you totally expected her fans to post on a fucking thread with "queen of /mu/" on its title. We all know that Grimes is the queen of /mu/. Don't act surprised, friendo.

Anon, this is a music discussion forum - not a safespace for retarded memes.
>>

>you totally expected it
fair enough, but I at least hoped that they wouldn't be autistic for once. Unfortunately, I was wrong

>>73834983
>by definition
define good and bad art then, it's all subjective. If we're going by that original anon's definition (it has to make you feel something), then a boring album (which makes you feel next to nothing) is bad art, which he seemed to not understand.

>>73835060
what's the fucking point in redirecting an anon who replied to a certain post to another reply to that same post? Don't you have anything better to do?
>>
>>73835122
music-related memes fall under this board because this board is for music-related things. If you're going to pursue this argument, then why aren't you just as annoyed that the grimes-fans brought up her popularity here, which is also not music discussion directly? Please think before you post.

>memes are retarded because they can be misconstrued as a slight against my waifu
this is just sad

>>73834736

>>73835122

>changing a thread topic
Is a form of trolling, and is therefore a bannable offense. Report such posts and move on. Whining about it just encourages more trolling.

it's not trolling, it's a separate offense that also requires a rule.

I already did. >>73832943
Art itself is a process of mental transformation. Good art changes the way you think in some way. Bad art doesn't.

>a boring album
People who find an album truly boring don't go out of their way to discuss how "boring" they thought it was with groups of people who are almost guaranteed to disagree with them (e.g. the occupants of these threads.)
>>
>>73828228
Hope it goes down
>>
>>73835168
>music-related memes fall under this board because this board is for music-related things.
As per official board rules, /mu is for the discussion of
>music, artists, and instruments
http://www.4chan.org/rules#mu

>memes are retarded
Because they can be misconstrued to be about ANYTHING. And since this board is specifically for the discussion of
>music, artists, and instruments
Smart people avoid using memes since they invariably lead to thread derailment - exactly like what you saw in that ITAOTS "fun" thread last night.
>>
>>73835604
if an album is boring, then it doesn't change the way that you think. Thus, a boring album is a bad album. People who really found the album boring will call it boring because they're discussing an artist's music in a thread about that artist.
>>
>>73835785
>discussion of music, artists, and instruments
Yes, so discussing music-related things (for example, memes) is directly related to music.

>because they can be misconstrued to be about ANYTHING
yes, if you're obsessed with an artist and see her in every situation

>smart people avoid using memes because they invariably lead to thread derailment
No. Memes are a fun way of communication between people that help develop a board culture and more future enjoyment. That thread only led to thread derailment because of overly-obsessive grimesfans

Well I see these threads haven't improved at all. Still a barrel of sunshine in these parts.

Starting to not like her music based solely on the fanbase on these forums. I mean sure the trolls are irritating, but these threads and the continuous triggering is obnoxious.

It's at the point where I don't believe any sort of subjective/objective discussion about her work is possible here.

Someone says they don't like it because of x, someone comes and tells that person they are retarded or that they didn't listen properly or some bullshit.

Ah well. I'll check back later on I guess. Maybe. Whatever.
>>
>>73835225
>it's not trolling,
trolling: the act of maliciously interfering with the free flow of information in a pre-existing thread of discussion.

Hijacking the topic of a thread (unless the topic is itself a meme since memes have fluid definitions) is a straightforward example of trolling. Report, move on, and - for God sakes - don't whine about it. Otherwise you just encourage more trolling.

>>
>>73835858
>Memes are a fun way of communication between people
Who are like-minded. In the context of a place like /mu (where conversation is open to literally ANYONE) they just function as ways for people to derail conversations.
>>
>>73831657
Agreed. Some people in these threads do not know how to allow other people to enjoy or not enjoy shit of their own choosing.

Nobody wants an echo chamber. If you do (if responder is OP) then make an echo chamber grimes thread.

This is probably the most annoying thing that fellow fans are doing. What a disgrace. Her music should stand alone, she doesn't need you to "defend" anything.

Man sometimes I regret clicking on that youtube video. She makes great music but people like this... sigh... dammit man.
>>
>>73836065
Where did you find an official dictionary entry for the word 'trolling' which would recodnize and legitimize it as a real word, like 'mansplain'?

I'm not saying it's wrong for you to be quoting user generated definitions of words from joke websites, but it makes you a fucking moron to do that thing. Just my opinion

>>73832097
Dude, that is so rude. I don't know how you can come in these threads and think you're helping.

Maybe I will then. At least the trolls seem to know how to party and have a sense of humor. Instead of some of you humorless, waifu dolts.

You're an idiot for having such a big problem with her fanbase. NOT the trolls, her fanbase! I think you're just a troll undercover, you can't be this naive. All you do is to whine at her fanbase for "beating" your dear trolls, like those trolls are saints and not devils. Get a life dummy.

Yeah but it's not the entire fanbase. A lot of people are cool and normal sounding except there's this particular segment of this fan base that waifu's shit up and believes... seriously believes they're going to be with her and they use that hope to fuel their defense of her and any and all criticism. It's absolutely unbearable.

An artist should stand alone and be able to be judged solely on their merits. People who come to their defense or whatever don't improve anything. They're not going to change anyones mind. I don't understand how they think they're helping.

Different anon speaking. 90% of the problems rational people are having here with her "fanbase" are actually just problems they're having with you specifically. Stop being an asshole to EVERYONE (including people like who genuinely like Grimes) ITTs.

I think it might be 3 actually, since there's one with absolutely terrible grammar, one with a very distinct way of speaking that will nitpick any small grammar mistake, and one with middle-of-the-road grammar. There probably are around 5 total who post the "expecting to be taken seriously" and the "grimey sleeping well" memes, including those 3
>>
>>73836834
I rarely see one talk about grammatical errors (how petty) but i'll keep an eye out.

Seems there are some "fans" of hers that are just hell bent on fucking up these threads worse than the trolls. That way NOBODY gets to enjoy these threads.

Congratulations, these people are worse than the trolls. In fact I think we need more trolls in here to mellow shit out a bit. Jeez.
>>
>>73836870
yeah, the trolls are pretty funny honestly. I'm the (apparently) famous "I like her first two albums" guy that always get's shit like "you just dislike pop music" so I've experienced the worst of them front-on
>>
>>73836870

It's a certain anon who brags about being a professional musician or something like that. Something related to classical music. Indeed, that's petty.

>>73836614
He's been obsessively "battling" anti-Grimes trolls since at least March or April of last year, and simply doesn't know when to quit (because IT IS NO LONGER NECESSARY - hint hint.)

Because doing wrong out of ignorance is completely different from doing it out of malice. Are you aware that you're constantly being an asshole to EVERYONE else in these threads?

I don't want to be the "autist" guy but that's one of the signs of autism. That they cannot comprehend being an asshole to others. They can't read social cues.

You're more autist than all her fanbase put together. You literally hunt every thread of her and reply to every troll. Your style is very recognizable. I've seen your spergtastic posts everywhere. Funny thing you say about now knowing when to quit when you did the same thing.
>>
>>73836972

>>73836961
kek
>>
>>73836693
Part of the problem is that English clearly isn't his first language (most likely eastern European based on my impressions of his odd word order.) And consequently both the way he reads people's negative comments and words his own insulting replies comes off as much more heavy-handed than necessary - which just makes everyone involved/observing more like to troll back. He really needs to take a break for a while.
>>
>>73837008
I know who you're talking about, and >>73836951 isn't him. The guy you're referring to uses different terms and reddit spaces more often.
>>
>>73837030
I might be mistaken but I think that's the guy who shared the unreleased library with me. Not sure. Could have been someone else.

There's many anons in these threads who are cool bros but unfortunately, it's the other few who are fucking the threads up entirely and making them very hostile.

Even trolls should feel welcome here. At least they're fun sometimes.

>>73836985
You are not everyone. There's place for everyone here. Do you dislike my posts? Hide them. Problem easily solved. You brag about the rules but you're not tolerant.

>>73837072
Could be the polish guy. I spoke with one chap from the east who said he went to some of her concerts. Was overall positive, never got any weird undertones to his discussions. Could be the wrong guy though.
>>
>>73837078
This. We could all do with a little more tolerance in these threads. People being overly anal about "rules" and such are really irritating. Like the class nerd who continues to say he'll tell the teacher if you don't do your work or some shit.

I don't think it's him. It looks more like this guy >>73836951

That classical musician anon is the more intolerant here. He criticizes everything and everyone. I'm sick of his fake policing.

>>73837123
All in all, I'd say that there's around 5 super-obsessives (classical guy, in-between guy, eastern-european guy, the guy who does the "expecting to be seriously" shit, and the "grimey is sleeping well" guy)

>>73836972
>gives you an impression of the quality of these threads doesn't it?
More like the quality of /mu or 4chan in general desu. I only started posting here last year because I was looking for a place to discuss Grimes' music other than Reddit (whose up/down voting system gives me a headache) and this place popped up in a Google search. On the one hand this is a really good place for it since her stuff tends to be very... edgy in a way that makes it difficult to discuss fully on any of the major social networking systems (since you can never be sure what's gonna end up being inappropriate for what age group.) At the same time, the sheer amount of... "garbage" posting that goes on here usually unabated is pretty baffling. So... yeah.

Totally! Pretty similar approach as mine as well. Interesting.

>>73837003
>They can't read social cues.
The thing is, that's also something you get when communicating - especially non-verbally - in something other than your native language. Imo he isn't autistic (perhaps very slightly.) He just doesn't know how to read context clues in English well enough to not end up sounding completely insensitive.

Not sure, but yeah you could be right as well.
