Grimes/Claire Boucher thread

she said on twitter she's almost finished editing the video for the first single & that the album's going to be out shortly after that so it seems pretty certain

any day now...

I sure hope so.

i have a feeling it's gonna drop sometime this week

bumping for the breaking news of the album release

I wonder when we will get that

well, since she told people it would be out in a particular month, i hope she realizes that if the album doesn't materialize by the end of the month her fanbase may turn into raging entitled babies like Frank Ocean's did

yeah but she's going on tour

lead single is "Flesh Without Blood" out next week

Here we go.

ah. very Grimes-esque cover !
so the title of the album is "100 million $ art angels" ?

no, the full title of the album is "art angels No. 4 2080 1000,00000 $ art angels grimes <3 <3 <3"

ahah

Hooray!

features a song about Al Pacino as transgender vampire

a lil too Momus for my tastes

lol

Hell yes.

damn

video conceived as and destined to become an endless series of gifs. the second track feels like a bit of a throwaway, but so far I'm down.

Hmm, I'm not too psyched that she went with that clichéd pop song chord progression/structure.

that strategy worked well on Realiti

Realiti was so sonically engrossing though

first time i listened to this i wasn't partic compelled but for some reason on the second go around i was

flesh without blood sounds like an annie track

REALITI IS ON ART ANGELS Y'ALL (the CD and digital versions at least)

i was looking closely at the vinyl packing and i don't see 'realiti' there...might have to get both if it's on one and not the other

Grimes does Annie is just about everything I've ever wanted. My assumption is that the rest of the album won't be that at all, which I'm also psyched about.

I also experienced this calibration

first song of hers where all of the lyrics are all clearly distinguishable? screams aside i mean
need a gif of the badminton racquet dancing hippie

good song

let's not talk about chord progressions

ok well 'reality' isn't on the vinyl afaict, based on this link:

realiti

legit lead single, go Grimes!

the realiti on the album is different than the demo version

both are on the cd, though

(and neither on the lp, as nomar said)

good song terrible video

:D

im excited for this album, i've heard it's great

let's not talk about chord progressions

booo

This is great, still not paying £30+ for a balcony seat to see her though. My own fault for snoozing and not getting standing tickets :-/

I like it, but part of me kind of wishes there for there to be a ripping a guitar solo in there, but I guess this is what you get with an artist who hasn't had as much experience with a guitar before.

way 2 make grimes sound like a 5 yr old

i think we can all agree that every song would be better with a ripping guitar solo in it

4AD says: out digitally November 6, Janelle Monae is on it

v bummed if no realiti on the lp but there are typos in the 4ad thing so knows
