Saw that this morning on Instagram. It reminded me to unfollow her.

new song or song fragment I wonder?

flappy bird, Monday, 26 November 2018 20:34 (five years ago) link

her webstore is back up with new swag so i wonder if it's a new album...

omar little, Monday, 26 November 2018 20:47 (five years ago) link

apparently it's a single, "We Appreciate Power" ft. Hana

ufo, Tuesday, 27 November 2018 00:19 (five years ago) link

ooh la la

flappy bird, Tuesday, 27 November 2018 02:50 (five years ago) link

Apparently new album dropping in a few days?

Rod Steel (musicfanatic), Tuesday, 27 November 2018 23:24 (five years ago) link

I hope so.

and here's the confirmation for the "we appreciate power" single

ufo, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 12:53 (five years ago) link

Nice

Trϵϵship, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 13:33 (five years ago) link

Male gazey goodness!

Cousin Slappy, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 16:55 (five years ago) link

it's true that i love power

I don’t care what any of yall say, i’m excited.

Trϵϵship, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 19:26 (five years ago) link

Also it’s not cool to call an image she released herself “male gazey.”

Trϵϵship, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 19:34 (five years ago) link

Yeah I don't get that

plant a twee or die (morrisp), Wednesday, 28 November 2018 19:42 (five years ago) link

Cousin Slappy’s path w/r/t Grimes is a strange and difficult one.

omar little, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 19:43 (five years ago) link

I don't get that vibe from that particular image, but "she's a female artist so it can't invite/invoke the male gaze" seems like s dubious argument

resident hack (Simon H.), Wednesday, 28 November 2018 19:46 (five years ago) link

I'm just responding to the specific image.

plant a twee or die (morrisp), Wednesday, 28 November 2018 19:48 (five years ago) link

I just think it’s weird to criticize her for “inviting the male gaze.” She would anyway as a young woman, first of all, even if she explicitly tried not to; secondly, it doesn’t seem like she is invoking any problematic/sexist tropes in this image.

Trϵϵship, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 19:54 (five years ago) link

Inviting the Elon gaze.

Monica Kindle (Tom D.), Wednesday, 28 November 2018 19:55 (five years ago) link

i'll be back on board if this actually turns out to be her nu-metal pivot

princess of hell (BradNelson), Wednesday, 28 November 2018 19:55 (five years ago) link

whatever her flaws I've certainly never thought of her as an artist who panders to a trad "male" audience in any way

resident hack (Simon H.), Wednesday, 28 November 2018 19:56 (five years ago) link

For sure

Trϵϵship, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 19:56 (five years ago) link

Boobs and butt for everyone! Lesbians can gaze as well.

Cousin Slappy, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 20:03 (five years ago) link

Lovely

Trϵϵship, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 20:05 (five years ago) link

fp’d you obviously

Trϵϵship, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 20:06 (five years ago) link

lmao at this comment on the gram

Sort of disturbed to find this rhetoric enter into the style. It is naive to consider that the robot overlords aren’t controlled by the same powers that we should be resisting. Appreciate power in the small places please.

resident hack (Simon H.), Wednesday, 28 November 2018 20:08 (five years ago) link

Lol. If grimes is truly pro AI takeover than it looks like my politics might diverge from hers. Still stoked for the album.

Trϵϵship, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 20:08 (five years ago) link

Just clicked thru to the photographer's feed; there is some legit "boobs and butt" happening over there (moreso than I thought was even permitted on Insta!)

plant a twee or die (morrisp), Wednesday, 28 November 2018 20:11 (five years ago) link

Why would you take offense to that? I don't know you at all. If you're queer as well, my bad.

Cousin Slappy, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 20:14 (five years ago) link

Who are you addressing?

Trϵϵship, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 20:15 (five years ago) link

Nevermind. Grimes has nice boots.

Cousin Slappy, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 20:30 (five years ago) link

"If you want a vision of the future, imagine Grimes's left boot in the extreme foreground of an Instagram post -- forever."

plant a twee or die (morrisp), Wednesday, 28 November 2018 20:32 (five years ago) link

That said, I hope Grimes isn't dissected into oblivion by fans and critics alike. She's so damn likable, but even better than that she has interesting songs and you can actually dance to some of them. The ideas behind them are what stick out for me.

Yes. Guard your manic pixie/gnat.

She's a 30yo, grown woman. She is well past the point of needing help being a shitty person. Why not just go full misogny and say she's been dickmatized?

omar little, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 23:08 (five years ago) link

it's really good and so was her single with Poppy a month or so ago

Trϵϵship, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 23:18 (five years ago) link

the thing about grimes is, she is a brilliant artist, even if she dates weird billionaire dudes or violates cousin slappy's code for modesty

Trϵϵship, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 23:19 (five years ago) link

this song makes me think ... she should do an album with devin townsend

Spottie, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 23:24 (five years ago) link

princess of hell (BradNelson), Thursday, 29 November 2018 00:18 (five years ago) link
