I expect nothing less than greatness. I can't even imagine a bad Grimes album. I bet it will be like a mix of her past styles plus something completely new. It will be so good that even her haters will finally have to admit she's great.

I'm confused - what's the Grimes connection?

Tbh I've always sort of wondered about whether there was ever any sort of Grimes Mac Demarco contact. They're both known for having gotten their starts in Montreal's loft scene. But I've seen no mention of them ever having crossed paths.

>>73934108

What do /grimes/ think of this synthpop artist named Pixx? IMO her music is very melodic and actually good.

(continued)
Btw, Pixx is signed to 4AD, the same label as Grimes.

Nice references and themes:
>A playful, performative record, The Age Of Anxiety borrows its title from a phrase found in a notebook given to Pixx (the moniker of 21 year-old musician Hannah Rodgers) by her brother, Luke. It is the title of W.H. Auden’s final long poem, charting one man’s quest to find substance and identity in a shifting and increasingly industrialised world. Published in 1947, it seems fitting that Auden’s rumination on human isolation in the modern age should be used as the title for Pixx’s debut album – ostensibly placing herself outside looking in, The Age Of The Anxiety looks instead to address a generation increasingly isolated by an unprecedented new world, from the pressures of social media to ever-changing political turbulence.

>>73934185
Not bad. Makes me think of a more synthpoppy version of Sunflower Bean.

>>73934185
I have just listened to her album
She's pretty good

>>73934419
Her album grew on me after 2 listens. It's one of the best pop albums of the year. It's not as gripping as the Grimes albums but it's certainly enjoyable.

>>73934185

>Still, Pixx’s Anxiety and Auden’s share much in common. Both seem forlorn, agitated, sick with ennui. Both bristle at the anguish and malaise of the age. “Toes,” an erratic, hazy synth-pop number reminiscent of a pre-Visions Grimes, lambasts the demands of a life broadcast on-screen for likes and follows: “The longest hair/The bluest eyes/The whitest teeth/The fakest smile,” Rodgers recites flatly, before concluding with a simple droll order: “Let’s go out/Let’s go outside.” Elsewhere she addresses the tension between vanity and social consciousness—both on the rise. “Everyone is in a rush to have some fun but times are tough,” she sings on the buoyant “Waterslides.” “There must be something here for me/I’m terrified by what I see.”

4AD have had quite the pedigree over the years. Some other classics that used to call them home:

- Bauhuas
- Cocteau Twins
- Dead Can Dance

IMO it's a wasted opportunity that she didn't push more in an IDM direction. I means more songs like Colour of Moonlight and Be a Body. Claire, if you're reading this, please give us more Autechre, BOC and Aphex Twin influenced songs.

Is it common on /mu/ for threads to be this closely monitored by overbearing mods? I never venture into kpop threads etc so no idea if it's normal to see posts constantly deleted because one mod disagrees with them. It's pretty off putting desu, regardless of how you feel about claire.

>>73934709
Pixies too. This band was a big deal in the early '90s. Also This Mortal Coil and Grimes' pal, Ariel Pink.

I'm no fan of Ariel Pink (everything I've heard of him indicates he is an irredeemable asshole) but the way that whole kerfuffle fell out was pretty pathetic. If you go through and look at the things actually said and by whom/when, what actually happened is that AP said something stupid about Madonna, Grimes called him out on it, and then a stupid music journalist misinterpreted what her comment was about and asked him to respond to the MISINTERPRETATION - which is how the infamous "stupid and retarded" quote originated. In the end, Ariel Pink is the one who took the fall (which isn't all that terrible giving that the whole thing started with his own indiscretion in the first place.) But if there was someone to blame for catapulting the whole thing beyond above and beyond what it deserved to be, it was that bumbling reporter in the middle.

Grimes is a powerful artist and you need to understand that people have all sorts of interpretations of her immense and varied oeuvre.

>>73934717
SHES A sellout, she's never going back to that sound again. She realized how to exploit tumbler and Twitter "goths" and use them as a market.

She's no longer an artist, she's a whore.

>>73934895
How does that square with the fact that she's partially native American?

>>73935000
>she's never going back to that sound again.

>>73935000
What do you mean?

>>73935004
i don't perceive her music to have those inferences, song like eight feel very germanic to me

she's afraid of what your reaction will be because you're so close minded, expect to see the german language in her next album

>>73935036
Is that why grimes freaked out about music press and pitchfork?

>>73935058
How exactly is eight Germanic? Sounds more like post-progressive jazz jamtronica to me

>>73934994
Free speech exists as long you don't offend other people. That nazi shit is inexcusable, no matter how you spin the ideas. Also it's funny you say about white pride while Grimes is about tolerance and against racism. Her values are totally different than yours.

Repeated appropriation of the bindi.
Appropriation of dreadlocks in “Gensis” video.

Grimes is not the first person attaching vague ethnic allusions to coolness without context—nor is she the first person to do so in four-inch “Club Kid” platform shoes. Pop music has long been a palette for white musicians interloping, borrowing, and assuming “other” racial identities, to varying critique or effect. In honor (or indictment) of Grimes and “Genesis,” here are a few of my favorites, in a manner of speaking.

>>73935497

Thread is just further proof that no one is capable of discussion on her music unless it's blind automaton like praise of her cute pictures.

She does, though.

Go watch genesis..grimes starts singing a refrain that is not on her album: wailing in her shrill mousey voice, she seems to mock the vocal runs of Middle Eastern music, but without offering any context whatsoever.

But don't worry, her cousin knows someone from there so it's ok ...

>no one is capable of discussion on her music unless it's blind automaton like praise
Are you including yourself in that? Blind automaton like criticism is just as lifeless desu.

>>73935692
Yeah - you're right. So what then was she using during the early Visions touring days - e.g. in her KEXP performance? Actually I should just go look myself.

Yep - I'd say that's it. Could've sworn she was already using something else at that point.

Why do you think she's such oddly proportioned facial features for a European person. Because she partially isn't.

>>73935880
'Cultural appropriation' is just a politically correct byword for the way in which cultures naturally grow: by stealing things from other cultures (see the cultural relationship between early Republic era Rome and ancient Greece for an excellent historic example.) The only cultures that complain about being appropriated from are ones that are in the process of dying. Because that's what happens when you don't keep your culture alive by constantly incorporating new things.

>If it's not illegal under US law
Never said it was. I'm not trying to justify anything here. Just explaining why someone like this poster (who is pretty clearly German if you pay close attention to the cadences of his written English) would be having such an extreme reaction to seeing that sort of thing. Since this stuff is still technically illegal out that way (I know because I've lived/toured in the German realm a time or two.) And people tend to have an unfounded expectation that rules on the internet are subject to their country's laws - despite the fact that the internet is effectively a location-less realm. Americans are notorious for assuming everyone else has to follow their country's rules on the internet. Why would Germans be any different?

>>73938188
I know why he is mad, I just think he's stupid for being so and for his reaction

>Americans are notorious for assuming everyone else has to follow their country's rules on the internet
in this case, they're right

>>73935715
Even if she didn't have family ties to either of those cultures, I think its perfectly fine for her to have dreadlocks and a bindi. The art of Grimes can use whatever she wants without limits!

>>73934185
damn she is so much better than Grimes, she sucks lmfao

(you)

It's funny seeing all this Grimes obsession after growing out of Grimes. I can't even stand Art Angels anymore, whereas I used to love it. Geidi Primes is cool though.

>>73940972
Fuck off Lavren.

>>73940979
Nah, Chvrches is shit.

I just can't get into Grimes. Visions was so fucking bad. Her voice is so god damn annoying which sucks because I can tell she's a decent producer. Eight is the only song that I like but it's tough to enjoy her production when she has such a shit singing voice

>>73940979
shes just saying that because she found out Brandon likes Grimes.

grimes is trash

>Yeah - you're right. So what then was she using during the early Visions touring days - e.g. in her KEXP performance? Actually I should just go look myself.
Yes indeed. That's a Juno-G in her KEXP performance. Juno-G was her main tool during the making of Visions.

I just feel sick listening the albums I like from her knowing how cancerous her fanbase is here.

>>73934846
Was it really that damaging? Pom Pom was pretty successful and would probably be held higher if it wasn't for the Grimes stuff by some critics who panned the album (the guardian).

>>73934846
The best part is that Ariel Pink said nothing wrong, was called a misogynist, and then was bullied into apologizing for (fairly) insulting her back. Grimes is a big bully, and Pom Pom was still successful.

>>73943685
Pink is a fucking troll, got called out, and then fell on his sword. Fuck him he got what he deserved.

>>73944013
Good argument

>>73944013
He's a troll, but deep down he likes Grimes.

>I'm not a misogynist. Maybe she's angry that I'm the male version of her, who was at 4AD.

>I love grimes. I love Madge. I love women. I love the guardian. I love pitchfork. I love the fans. I love the haters. I love my life. #UK

Few years before the incident:
>But that hasn't stopped Pink from continuing to point out his influence on Grimes. In a scene from a 2012 feature story in Spin, he watches Grimes perform at Make Music festival. (Keep in mind, this is when "Oblivion" and "Genesis" were everywhere.) "She doesn't do the ramanah," Pink says, referring to a vocal style popularized by Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder. "No, she does the Pink-a-nah." Later, he adds, "every time I hear her, I hear a little of myself." Pink also tried to invite Grimes on tour with him in 2012—but she was already fully booked. Funny enough, that seems like an apt metaphor to exactly what's happening today.

>>73944531
The "male version of her" comment is clearly supposed to be an accusation of Grimes biting his style, same for the concert bit. Inviting her to his tour would make sense given how similar she is to him. The "I love ___" bit also seems very snarky and sarcastic.

Fight

>>73944638
It seems honest, not snarky. He wouldn't even say that ("he's angry that I'm the male version of her") if genuinely hated her.

>>73945137
>it seems honest
Yes, he seems very honest that he would love Pitchfork and The Guardian in the same post, despite the fact that Pitchfork attacked him and The Guardian reviewed his album poorly

>if he genuinely hated her
I never said he did, but he clearly thinks that Grimes bit his style

>>73945251
>he clearly thinks that Grimes bit his style
They're not even similar. He just noticed a few kinda similar bits. You're exaggerating a lot; he doesn't hate her. Actually why don't you ask him what he thinks about Grimes?

now i know it's you james and some paid viral promoters working out of india or pakistan that are creating this thread.

is there a way you can contact the agency behind this and tell them to stop? i will love grimes forever if you can get this done.

it's one for each main area. why did you react like that's an extraordinary thing? it's an absolutely normal thing for international artists. btw, bigger artists have contracts with more record labels.

>>73950634
>this artist is one of the main symbols of /mu/
Thanks to the 20 retards pushing her on everyone else. Luckily everyone else sees them as a joke, so it's more of an ironic figurehead. Hopefully we'll see a /grimes/ board in the future.

>>73950634
>it's an absolutely normal thing for international artists. btw, bigger artists have contracts with more record labels.
she IS signed to several labels.

the reason why i'm saying this is because i see the same fabricated praise of grimes on facebook and instagram ALL THE TIME. created by fake accounts out of the middle east and central america.

i understand the point of it but when will it stop? the "praise" posts made in these threads are half-assed and are clearly made by people who don't care about her music and are just making the social media rounds to collect their paychecks. "i wish more people liked her" TOO! BUT do these companies realize that normal people get turned off by this kind of online promotion? look at what was happening on myspace music. people get turned off by shills pushing artists on them.

i'm saying this because i used a similar pr company and they did the same kind of crap that is going on here. sending pajeets and dudes out of mexico to promote my shit online. it did nothing but annoy the fuck out of people.

can you PLEASE stop?

i want to see a real grimes thread one day made by a REAL fan.

>>73950661
>Hopefully we'll see a /grimes/ board in the future.
never gonna happen. you people are super-exaggerating. usually there's just one grimes thread and sometimes there are 1-5 additional threads (not duplicates). how is that even a problem? there is place for over 100 threads in the catalog. 1-5 less meme threads is a non-issue.
btw, i still don't get why do you keep posting in her threads every day if you dislike her? i've seen your comment with "20 retards" many times before.

>>73950847
>you people are super-exaggerating
nope, you people invade many threads, add way too many threads, annoy the fuck out of 90% of the userbase, generally act stupid, and then act ignorant about it

>And sometimes there are 1-5 additional threads (not duplicates)
if there is already a thread for general discussion of an artist (on any topic), any new thread about any facet of that artist is a duplicate

>>73950774
you're ridiculous as hell. you just don't get that some people are obsessed with her and you created a self delusional theory of people being paid to shill her. completely false. there are many people who like her for real.
these threads are posted daily because it's a tradition. traditions are sacred. if e.g. i don't create a new thread, someone else will do. that's the way the things are. at this point nobody could stop them. you have the cool option to filter threads: use it. you will not see her main threads again.

hold on a second: invading? wtf? aren't people allowed to post in other threads too? do you really believe that just because a general thread exists that means nobody should post that artist somewhere else? are you so delusional?
as for making way too many threads, at least half of them were made by haters.
>if there is already a thread for general discussion of an artist (on any topic), any new thread about any facet of that artist is a duplicate
it's not. same artist, different topic. the fact that the mods left many of them alone proved that they didn't break the rules.
did you see some of the rules?
>Please try to keep duplicate topics to a minimum by always searching for an old or active thread before posting a new one.
that sounds like a recomendation. if people believe that 2-3-4 threads is "to a minimum", what's your problem? are you even a mod?
>it's fun to debate with you all, your lack of knowledge and logic is funny

nope. When the topic of discussion is anything related to an artist in a thread, and a new thread is made with something about that artist, it is a duplicate. Also, pretending that the mods do their job well is hilarious

Doesn't change the fact that it's annoying when it does happen or that other topics are banned for doing the same thing

Weird doesn't cut it. This is outright self-sabotage.

Yeah... with the exception of your #3 (blaming other people for calling you out on having made stupid public statements is itself unironically 'stupid and retarded') none of these imo completely accurate targets for blame you mention are all that culpable since it was still his original ill-advised comment that got the ball rolling.

Was the backlash against Ariel Pink as a result of all this (e.g. seemingly being dropped by his record label) grossly overblown? Imo yes. Should he have totally seen this coming, and did he help exacerbate the problem by responding to transparently baity questions from reporters with tabloid-friendly replies? Imo yes. Yes he did.

>>73951831
>This is outright self-sabotage
Nothing happened to him for it, so not really

>blaming other people for calling you out

>on having made stupid public statements

there's the problem. If everyone blamed him for saying something that would hurt his relationship with Madonna's company, then that would be fine, since he did do that. But everyone came after him for being misogynist when he was not.

Not accusing anyone of anything desu. Merely pointing out a fact that you just confirmed.

>>73952672
good point. they're completely pathetic.

>>73952904
not that anon, but you classical musician need to chill down a bit. you seem like a white knight. other anons won't listen to you if you talk to them in such a pedantic way.

>>73952986
>Why wasn't it extended?
Lots of bands and their labels choose to not renew it for plenty of reasons, if the label was really offended enough they probably would've dropped him there

>not accusing anyone of anything
yes, you accused me of talking in circles

>that you just confirmed
maybe rebut my argument, or just keep clinging to one person's argument

is it true that the harshest critics of grimes on /mu/ are actually failed musicians that are very envious on her success? did you notice that these pretentious losers always complain about her music being "just synthpop" and for being too catchy? really makes you think.

>>73953780
>is it true that the harshest critics of grimes on /mu/ are actually failed musicians that are very envious on her success?
short answer: no
long(er) answer: not everyone that dislikes your favorite music is simply jealous of the artist

also I wouldn't object if you showed me a criticism of Grimes being "too catchy" outside of triggered fans thinking that critics think that she is.

i have a feeling that 90% of trolls didn't even bother listening to her music. maximum 3 songs at best.

>>73953883
>I need reasons to discredit people that disagree with me so I'll claim random bullshit
I think (You) might be the troll

>>73953972

no. you just posted some crap
>I need reasons to discredit people that disagree with me so I'll claim random bullshit
that you took out of your ass. that's not reasoning, that's bullshitting. yes, you were triggered that i told you (indirectly) that you didn't even listen to her music. did you even discuss her music itt? do see what i mean? you know shit about her music and you're just shitposting here. because you can.

>>73954167
>that you took out of your ass
And you didn't take your feeling out of your ass? btw I've listened to all of her albums.

>>73954221
if you really listened to her music you wouldn't attack my legit point >>73953883 because it wouldn't affect you. you fool no one, troll.

>>73954280
>because you don't fit in the group that I made retarded speculations about you shouldn't have any objections

I'll like it regardless (since I don't care about things like that with artists whose music I already like) but would prefer the same. Pretty sure that's what's coming too (especially based on what she's said most recently about it.)

>>73962590
Why would his post be there if he was banned? Why would he be banned if he didn't break any rules? If you reported him, you should be banned for false reporting, or at least warned.

>Why would he be banned if he didn't break any rules?
He posted nazi crap. Add also trolling. That's enough for a permaban.

>>73932126
Why does she look like Hatsune Miku?

>>73962763

If very few people can conceivably be offended by something, it's not trolling. Trolling is aimed at offending multiple people into replies, you're the only one that got offended.

>and plain illegal
you're actually the stupidest person i've ever encountered on here. as other anons have said many times, stop trying to infringe on everybody's right to express their personal opinions. people are allowed to do/say what they want as long as it complies with the rules of the board. you can't just bitch and moan because you don't like it, expect them to get banned, and then when they continue posting (because they didn't get banned) assume that they somehow circumvented a nonexistent ban. You don't make the rules asshole. So stop trying to make this place your personal safe-space.

>>73963722
Shut up, you idiot. This board has rules - respect them, you asshole. If you're posting crap ITT, don't wonder why people are reporting that.
>people are allowed to do/say what they want as long as it complies with the rules of the board.
Yeah, but if those people are posting stuff against the rules - like that dipshit - they should be banned. Rules are not negotiable. There's no such thing as infinite freedom of speech.
>you can't just bitch and moan because you don't like it, expect them to get banned,
I expect them to be banned if they're posting stuff against the rules. If you say x artist is bad, that's a valid opinion. If you post a heavily edited picture with nazi symbols, that's against the rules and frankly disgusting. Learn the difference, you dip. If you lack common sense, someone (a mod) should teach you a lesson by banning your shitposting ass.
>So stop trying to make this place your personal safe-space.
Make me.

>>73963935
I love how someone can type this much out without naming the rule against posting nazi shit. I also love how you just admitted to trying (and failing) to make this place your safe space. Enjoy your ban for false reporting.

>>73963935
>Yeah, but if those people are posting stuff against the rules - like that dipshit
what did he do that's against the rules you brown-nosed fuck?

>If you post a heavily edited picture with nazi symbols, that's against the rules
EXCEPT THAT'S NOT AGAINST THE RULES. you're literally making up rules because you're so insane you're delusional

>>73963980
Global rule #3
ou will not post any of the following outside of /b/: Trolls, flames, racism, off-topic replies, uncalled for catchphrases, macro image replies, indecipherable text (example: "lol u tk him 2da bar|?"), anthropomorphic ("furry") or grotesque ("guro") images, post number GETs ("dubs"), or loli/shota pornography.
Are you a simpleton or just play one on the internet? Don't answer that was rhetorical.

>>73964047
>Trolls, flames, racism
all of this is subjective. you don't get to decide what constitutes this. mods do. crawl out of their asshole and let them do their own job you crybaby

>>73963985
I'm insane for being against his nazi propaganda? You deluded fuck, are you even self aware of your posts? He broke these rules:
>You will not post any of the following outside of /b/: Trolls, flames, racism, off-topic replies, uncalled for catchphrases, macro image replies, indecipherable text (example: "lol u tk him 2da bar|?"), anthropomorphic ("furry") or grotesque ("guro") images, post number GETs ("dubs"), or loli/shota pornography.

>>73964127
it's not that you're insane for being against nazi imagery (it's not propaganda. look up the definition of propaganda) it's that you're insane for being so intensely intolerant of those who you disagree with.

even outside of this instance, you will viciously attack anybody who says something even remotely negative about grimes and then try to get them banned. you need to stop being so one-dimensional. there is always something to be learned from your opponent, and the second you dismiss those who you disagree with as useless garbage is the second you become an ignorant dogmatist. plugging your ears and throwing a tantrum

does she like being choked?

>>73964223
That rule gets breached all the time, I mean it's good enough to at least scare some people, but every board has tons of shitposting that breaches that rule and nobody cares, it's has always been part of chan boards.

For example, posting number GETs is not allowed and /mu/'s archive has 121,000 results for "dubs" (https://archive.rebeccablacktech.com/mu/search/text/dubs/), go figure

>>73964422
Which is also about grimes

>>73964047
There is nothing racist about purposefully making something look Nazi for a meme, are you disabled?

>>73964223
>blue board rule
Nazi imagery is not NSFW

>>73964422
This is kinda a bad argument, if something breaks the rules it should be told as such. However, it doesn't break the rules so that's fine.

That's not offensive though. But that nazi stuff is. You don't have old relatives who suffered in WW2.

>>73934722
its because psycho grimesfag will report any negative post about grimes that could potentially be interpreted as slightly breaking the rules in an attempt to ban anyone who says negative things about grimes. he admitted to doing so here>>73963935
