From yesterday, but dammit, I want a Grimes thread.

Bask in it....

Be #slayed by it....

Came (pun intended) for the Grimes, stayed for the Lush

 

[botty]

This sexual power ranger is doing everything right.

edit: I also learned recently grimes has a speech impediment... which is really adorable.

 

[Judderman]

The song is great.

The video is...interesting.

[Majmun]

I love Grimes so much. Visions is such a great album.

That pink lady in the Genesis video is so fierce. Video of the year?
HELL YES

 

[Steamlord]

Kinda cool.

Halfaxa is still better.

Nardwuar interview is too adorable.

I am here for the Grimes love.

She was spectacular looking in this video, but that strange looking woman definitely stole the spotlight.

I think this is probably her best video. The Oblivion video has more charm though.

 

[joelseph]

Oblivion is the better because of the charm. When she is jamming out and waves the biker dude through the shot is perfection.

 

[Steamlord]

Still her best song

 

[navanman]

Saw the video yesterday, bit of lady Gaga going on with the crazy looking chick but Grimes is looking super cute in it.

She is playing again in Ireland next week, can't wait to see her live again. Put on a great show in May.

 

[Metroid Killer]

My favorite song from the album, great to see it followed up with this video

 

[lush]

The Oblivion video is awesome. Not sure if this one tops it for me, "the sexual power ranger" combined with Claire's adorable pigtails has it close.

Still her best song

My fave outside of Visions will take you all the way back to Geidi Primes:

"Beast Infection"

 

[joelseph]

I hope Be a Body is filmed in my bedroom. Make it happen!

 

[Robot 492]

Oblivion is the better because of the charm. When she is jamming out and waves the biker dude through the shot is perfection.

YES. I'm also quite fond of the hotdog waving dance. She's too cute in that video/life/everything.

 

[navanman]

Be a Body is my favourite song. That section from 1.55 is fucking amazing.

[MrDenny]

Never heard of them, but that was pretty awesome

 

[weekend_warrior]

I didn't know Frank Grimes had a daughter.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

I'd like a video for "Circumambient", but that's highly unlikely.

 

[Aguila]

Yuuusss.
Be A Body should have the next video
and then Circumambient
and then Symphonia IX

 

[Revolver]

I love Grimes. Like the video. This isn't the video she tweeted Charli XCX about is it? I kept looking for her.

 

[SecretMoblin]

Great video for a better song.

 

[Borgnine]

She really should just make a video for every song, the two forms compliment each other so well in this kind of pop aesthetic thing she's going for. Also we'd get to see her in different cute outfits and stuff too.

 

[Misterinenja]

I'll give it

[K.Sabot]

Nothing special.

No need to make a trailer for a music video if the video is gonna be that boring.

 

[lush]

This was it. Alas, no zombies, explosions, or Charli. Maybe next time.

 

[mescalineeyes]

2012 is the year of Grimes.

 

[Majmun]

Should I check out her previous records if I liked Visions?

I heard her earlier work is different...

It took me quite a long time to admire her music. But now I love it.

 

[HiResDes]

You know you have an incredible track record for making a whole lot of damn sense.

iammaiwhoami did it and it was great. Grimes should take notes.

This was it. Alas, no zombies, explosions, or Charli. Maybe next time.

I'd prefer a collab, but a video would be nice...

 

[twobear]

I absolutely LOVE this. I think she has delivered the video of the year tbh. The only competition is Liquorice and Van Vogue by Ms. Banks.

[Mononofu]

Will watch later, Grimes is fab.

Visions is far and away her most accessible album, certainly worth a try though as she has alot of nice stuff on her older albums. Halfaxa and Darkbloom are both worth a try.

ummmmm

Nothing special.

Blasphemy.

Did you not see Claire playing with the Roman candles?

 

[K.Sabot]

Blasphemy.

Did you not see Claire playing with the Roman candles?

That shit is played out brah.

 

[SecretMoblin]

That shit is played out brah.

Yeah, but she's cuter.

 

[lush]

That shit is played out brah.

Played out? Like the first time via Grimes.

Claire > Chaz

 

[K.Sabot]

Played out? Like the first time via Grimes.

Claire > Chaz

His name is Chaz, he had no chance of winning.

 

[twobear]

ummmmm

What are you umming at?

 

[bjork]

That chick with the pink hair and swords reminds me of Valhalla Hawkwind.

 

[mescalineeyes]

His name is Chaz, he had no chance of winning.

That's almost Chad.

 

[lush]

What are you umming at?

I hated Liquorice and Van Vogue videos, especially when compared to 212 which has an awesome video.

 

[bjork]

I only knew of grimes from this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScPaXIyb3SA

I'm afraid we can't be friends.

I didn't know Frank Grimes had a daughter.

Or Grimey, as he liked to be called.

 

[Revolver]

[edit]Re: Grimes and Charli XCX, I hope you've all seen this piece of flawfreeness:

I'm not crazy about Sky Ferreira. Put Azealia, Lana, Jessie Ware or heck even Iggy Azalea next to Claire and Charli and it would be perfect.

 

[hateradio]

With those pig tails, Grimes wa kawaii deshoo~. (✿ﾟ◡◡&#65439

I would love a video for "Vowels = Space And Time," which is my favorite track on the album.

Still her best song

I love Halfaxa, but I think the best is "Sagrad." However, the whole album is packed with great tracks. It's hard to choose. "Devon," "Weregild," "Dream Fortress," "World Princess," "River," "Swan Song," etc. <3

The Oblivion video is awesome. Not sure if this one tops it for me, "the sexual power ranger" combined with Claire's adorable pigtails has it close.


My fave outside of Visions will take you all the way back to Geidi Primes:

"Beast Infection"

I'm still get enthralled whenever I listen to "Rosa."
