Grimes tried to sail a house down the Mississippi river with a bunch of chickens and a sack of potatoes and she’s not “weird” enough for you?
It’s cute that you think making any statement about what is uncool renders the speaker uncool – and then proceed to do exactly just that.
Also, I just thought Hip-Stars was a really bad pun. No intended social commentary there.
Tupac’s killer is most definitely not lounging on a beach in the French Riveria drinking mai-thais right now. The guy himself is most probably either dead or incarcerated – and I say this as one who can claim the authority of watching all five seasons of The Wire. Also, you do not “find” justice for a killer. You “bring” a killer to justice. You “find” justice for the victim’s families.
I know we all love to take Julianne to task for her language – but writing “that shit bleeds sex” while talking about entendres and somehow not being attuned to what her own metaphoric language is literally describing is sort of funny. If “shit bleeds sex…literally” someone needs to see a doctor.
There is nothing less cool than writing “Fuck the Clash”…well, maybe naming your band “The Hipstars”
Marquee Moon should be 30 slots higher
It’s called a cumback. Too obvious?
Quick, add the Walkmen before anyone else notices!
“Oceania” is such an ugly word to pronounce. That unnecessary “i” really requires some elocutionary gymnastics.
“53rd and 3rd” should be on there.
Love this song but I’m kind of disappointed with the video. It seems out of joint.
I think everyone misread my comment. I took that chance and lost, I guess.
Huh…I was just thinking the same thing.
Particularly because the Deconstruction article claims that Grimes tries to be “inhuman” and essentially charmless or emotionless. Doesn’t make sense at all when you watch that video.
One of those rare videos that makes you wish the performer was your best friend… Pitch perfect, imo.
Yep. Kind of negates the whole “robot” thing…
Can you tell me what this means: “Yet others who’ve embarked on such pursuits — Bjork, for example — have recognized the paradoxical intertwining between nature’s ether and that of the web.”
Yeah I just posted that then looked up and saw your comment above mine! Whoops!
Funny, I never ever would have thought as Grimes or her music as “asexual.” I find both sexy as hell.
Identikit sounds great…. My weird hope is that the next Radiohead album is 15 two minute songs.
So do you not listen to albums produced by Phil Spector?
Buy the Grimes album instead.
In my day, the Walkmen played the OC.
/i’m old.
Elvis Costello on SNL would have been really nice too…Wasn’t he banned for 20 years for that?
Isn’t “trying to be weird for no particular reason” exactly what being weird IS? Wouldn’t that be a very genuine thing — if you are such and such a way for “no particular reason?”
Maybe you mean that the boat-trip was a calculated posture on her part? But I doubt Grimes thought, if I somehow become an indie-popstar 5 years from now this incident will go a long way to establishing my weirdness just in case people doubt it on internet forums and such.
Anyhow, the art and the artist are two separate entities. I don’t dislike Bjork’s music because she beat up some reporter in front of her child, nor do I doubt Lolita’s “authenticity” because Nabokov was never a child molester himself.
