Grimes/Claire Boucher thread

She'll never be your beam girl.

The notion that a shitty human being can create compelling art gives me hope for the future.

idk elon musk is (or in relevance here, was) infinitely clownable but I'm not out here making sure my was assembled in a union plant, making sure my lithium batteries are responsibly sourced, etc. although I'd put demands on him that in actual business he tries to aim for those things

and I have no idea from those leaked texts if there's actual animosity or that is how azealia banks texts her *friends*

what is the actual impeachably shitty thing that claire boucher has done that we're cancelling her for

(fully expecting someone to post a horrible thing I've forgotten so I can recede into darkness)

This morality police stuff has gotten out of control.

There is no such thing as bad people, just bad actions.

imo if you do enough bad actions or have unquestionable bad motivations then you're bad

sorry, just how it works

you're neither sorry nor coherent

There is no such thing as bad people, just bad actions.

would grimes abort baby hitler?

Yeah, Treesh you’re sort of overplaying yr hand, lol

...and waitaminute, aren’t you the guy who was arguing that Jonathan Richman is like literally an incel stalker, b/c of the “Hospital” lyrics(??)

People tend to make or not make these kind of judgments based on what music they could ultimately live without

I never made claims about richmann the guy, just hospital the song.

tbf, Richman did make that “Songs for Laura” mixtape that always struck me as off

I like both these artists and am really glad I can't read

Lol

on the money...

Honestly it'll be amusing if she turns into Death in June for anime kids

i don't really want to hear anything more from banks or grimes until they both release their overdue albums

grimes seems like a good person imo. what has she done that makes her seem “thoroughly awful” to you?

Don't mean to get anyone's hopes up with this bump, but just heard this unreleased song for the first time, v nice:

hum... it's not bad but not much happening within 4+min... so yeah, a demo...

It's no REALiTi (demo), that's for sure.

Is that some kind of vocal filter or is she just singing entirely through her nose?

well, she's lost me with this and W.A.P.

she says in the description this was written & produced in 1-2 hours so i guess it's not bad for that but i'd much rather she finished the album instead of releasing throwaways like this

I liked 'We Appreciate Power' better than much of Art Angels but this is just bland.

"she says in the description this was written & produced in 1-2 hours"

always find this kinda stuff annoying. like "just a lil sketch i did in the bathroom not even trying rly lol". yeah, ok. thanks?

sheesh, I miss the days when people would just throw half-finished ideas and sketches on their myspace page or w/e and they'd either resurface years later as finished tracks or be one-off things some fan would remember down the line

yeah me too. I love demos/sketches/work material - in addition to, you know, AN ACTUAL NEW ALBUM

She’s always been really bad at lip synching in her videos.

new album is titled 'Miss_Anthrop0cene' and is going to be mostly 'ethereal nu-metal' in line with WAP unfortunately but she says she might release some more synth-based songs that didn't fit on the album before it's out

excellent news

1. mis·an·thrope
noun:
a person who dislikes humankind and avoids human society.
2. Anthropocene: The Anthropocene is a proposed epoch dating from the commencement of significant human impact on the Earth’s Geology and ecosystems including, but not limited to, anthropogenic climate change. ————————————

oh nice, i didn't get the pun until she explained it! :P

kick out the technofascist jams !

does anyone think global warming is a good thing? i love lady gaga. i think she's a really interesting artist

this songs not great. WAP was not very good, but ethereal numetal could work in theory.. im kind of scared that i gaslighted myself into liking art angels and im reluctant to revisit it...

ethereal numetal makes me think of evanescence

lmao that's what i thought of too monotony

Each song will be a different embodiment of human extinction as depicted through a Pop star Demonology.

...but enough about Man of the Woods.

i gaslighted myself into liking art angels

Don't blame yourself, blame ILX.

Anyway, I look forward to this, Evanescence comparisons and all.

Hum. I got off after REALiTi (demo) although I loved her previous stuff... and it doesn't look like her evolution will pull me back in...

im kind of scared that i gaslighted myself into liking art angels and im reluctant to revisit it...

art angels still rules and while it's a little less consistent and cohesive than visions, the highs are way higher

Yeah, Art Angels is pretty amazing.

I like We Appreciate Power a lot, so this is good news

Art Angels is still good

I genuinely like Art Angels but idk I want to say it's a New Jersey- WITH QUALIFIERS...
