That's how you get the first listing in the Grimes section of the yellow pages

tim it is pretty baffling to me that you did postgraduate studies in crit theory since you are like, the clearest writer ever

Law was a pretty good counterweight - my problem in that dept is that I'm still too elliptical and roundabout at times.

I guess it's a good thing for music fans that they couldn't get that engine working. xp

I saw this album on a lot of year-end lists and I took a flyer on Amazon. I'm glad that I did. It reminds me of Austra, who I also adore, in that is seems perfectly accessible to me. I cannot wait to play this for the wife.

Okay somebody explain the Tumblr post/Pitchfork repost kerfluffle today; I don't quite know what happened there.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:13 (twelve years ago)

Although I see this now

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:16 (twelve years ago)

From what I understand, people were giving her shit for her year end list at some publication, which featured some fairly universally loved pop songs/artists. She wrote a tumblr post this morning going into a detailed defense of it. Other blogs and eventually Pitchfork picked up on it. She said her tumblr isn't any kind of offical statement or news source, and then promptly deleted everything she'd ever posted on there.

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:16 (twelve years ago)

whether or not an artist's blog post is legitimate news from a news org's perspective is one question... i don't really agree with grimes tho

d'eejban (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:18 (twelve years ago)

lol tumblr

❏❐❑❒ (gr8080), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:18 (twelve years ago)

Weird, I was reading that Tumblr post 30 minutes or so. Seemed relatively uncontroversial stuff, but then young ppl I guess.

eskimo table (seandalai), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:19 (twelve years ago)

gotta lock up yr diaryland, grimes

mookieproof, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:21 (twelve years ago)

xp j0rdan u don't agree that listening to pop music is ok?

flopson, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:21 (twelve years ago)

lol, not that part

d'eejban (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:21 (twelve years ago)

<3 grimes

乒乓, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:27 (twelve years ago)

man that's really sad. i just read the pitchfork thing, she is smart & says good stuff.

schlump, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:28 (twelve years ago)

yeah

flopson, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:36 (twelve years ago)

Biggups Grimes! I don't care much for your music but you sure know yr onions.

dog latin, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:46 (twelve years ago)

^^^ sticker quote

zero dark (s1ocki), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 17:49 (twelve years ago)

Attacking her for these opinions is bullshit

I don't care much for your music but you sure know yr onions.

yes

ron paulstretch (crüt), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 19:26 (twelve years ago)

& I don't care much for the music she's defending but I "get it" and am glad it exists

ron paulstretch (crüt), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 19:26 (twelve years ago)

I like that she sees her creative process as swinging between making Dune albums and LOTR albums

Moodles, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 19:46 (twelve years ago)

didn't grimes recently say she'll be posting to her tumblr a lot more often for the fans? seems a little strange to go from that to deleting every post you've made

☕ (diamonddave85), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:25 (twelve years ago)

what is grimes hiding?

❏❐❑❒ (gr8080), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:36 (twelve years ago)

you can't hide from internet caches, "grimes"

christmas candy bar (al leong), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:40 (twelve years ago)

It seems weird to delete your whole Tumblr just because someone publishes your intelligent points at length and in context but then she's smart, intense and volatile so I guess it fits.

Deafening silence (DL), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:45 (twelve years ago)

I think she did because people were being dicks

Gukbe, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:50 (twelve years ago)

Oh, I thought she wrote it in response to people being dicks about her EOY list.

Deafening silence (DL), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:54 (twelve years ago)

afaik people never stop being dicks.

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:55 (twelve years ago)

yeah, it's fair game for her to take it down. it sucks for the rest of us, but clearly many people on the Internet are massive dicks who think we don't deserve intelligent discourse.

ron paulstretch (crüt), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:57 (twelve years ago)

the only rule is don't be a dick

❏❐❑❒ (gr8080), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:57 (twelve years ago)

too many dicks

Moodles, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:58 (twelve years ago)

xposts. four "dicks" posts in a row. sorry for the gendered language.

xposts again.

ron paulstretch (crüt), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:58 (twelve years ago)

dicks will never stop being dicks on the internet

christmas candy bar (al leong), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 20:59 (twelve years ago)

mookieproof, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 21:00 (twelve years ago)

Her EOY list contained Bieber, massive dick attractor.

Van Horn Street, Wednesday, 6 February 2013 21:01 (twelve years ago)

i was listening to 'visions' this morning on the turntable, my kid was going back and forth from speaker to speaker laying his hands on the sound vibrations. he loves it.

christmas candy bar (al leong), Wednesday, 6 February 2013 21:02 (twelve years ago)

my 2yo daughter likes it too but the one song that starts with a loud robot voice scares her
