I really liked her album Art angels and was really excited to see her perform at Laneway festival. Her live performance was one of the worst live performances I've seen. Just really low energy and had no stage presence. Maybe it was just an off show for her, but I lost interest in her after that
That's my Grimes story!

Contrary to popular goon belief, the coat in the pic where Grimes is "reading" the Communist Manifesto is not made from foreskins.

Three pages in and no one has mentioned her first claim to fame? For shame, this should have been in the OP.

Two dumb kids trying to reenact Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and failing at the first bend in the river, that’s stupid. But neither of them had ever read the book, drat, that makes the entire fiasco look cool, somehow.

Visions is a great album, but everything about how she presents herself as a person is the most off-putting, pretentious thing ever, even if she's making most of the stuff up.

A gaming channel could be a good idea, im sure people would watch it. I might do it myself, I figure theres probably heaps of people who want to see old games replayed from the perspective of a man in his 30s who grew up with the games. I could offer some fresh perspective on these classics, and bring my famous "grumpy nerd" personality, which I'm told is hilarious, to the fore as a bonus.

I think I just appreciate grimes through the lens of electronic music and especially as a woman in dance and electronic.
I can appreciate this, but her persona is so off-putting that I don't want to engage with her music.

She did the theme for Netflix's Hilda series and that was nice.

That's my Grimes story!

I saw her live shortly after Visions was released and it was also really tame and boring Granted, it was at a festival and they gave her a lovely early billing. The sun was blazing straight onto the decks so she couldn’t see what she was doing lol

All her gear was stolen while on tour shortly after.

Maybe the more recent concerts are good? She has the cash to do all sorts of crazy stuff now. I wanna some techno wizards sword-fighting or weird anime poo poo or whatever she’s into at the moment.
