"Shinigami Eyes": Grimes Brings Her Death Note to the Dance Floor
"Are you ready to die? / Got my Shinigami eyes on..." Well, it's about damn time. Our favorite Canadian sword-wielding cyber-fairy-space-princess Grimes is back on Wednesday (January 26) - not without a battle - with her brand new single from forthcoming EP Fairies Cum First, a prelude to her…
"Player of Games": Grimes Goes Trance in Space for 'Book 1'
Grimes, the Marie Antoinette of the pop stan community, is starting a new chapter. Problématique as she may be - for procreating with Elon Musk, The Richest Man In The World (and frequent asshole on Twitter), and/or beefing with Poppy and Azealia Banks (the feud of our generation, which needs to…
Grimes Kicks Off 2021 With 'Miss Anthropocene' Rave Edition
Happy New Year. It is now the year 2021, which means we're another year closer to the inevitable reign of future supreme leader, Baby X Æ A-Xii. And, with any luck, this will be a better, kinder, healthier year for humanity. (Look, we can dream.) To kick off the year, we're starting with…
The Top 100 Songs of 2020
CLICK HERE FOR APPLE MUSIC Nothing like waiting until the very last moment in time, right? (Well, very last moment of 2020, anyway.) The year was bad. The music was good. And now, with just mere minutes to go until we cautiously make our way into 2021, I present the top 100 songs of 2020. These…
The Top 10 Albums of 2020
The year is now over. I would say "thankfully," but we should probably learn by now not to pile all of our hopes and dreams into the New Year. Let's make like Mariah Carey and proceed with caution into 2021, instead. How about that? What 2020 failed to provide in stability or sanity, it made up…
Grimes Made a DJ Mix for 'Cyberpunk 2077' & It's Main Pop Girl Heaven
Mommy Grimes is certainly staying busy after welcoming baby X Æ A-Xii to the world, and keeping us all fed while doing so. She tucked us all into bed back in October with her AI Lullaby, an ambient project with Endel aimed at improving sleep and wellness through lush soundscapes and AI technology.…
Grimes Wants to Put You to Sleep With AI
Grimes is here to sing us all a sweet lullaby. The Miss Anthropocene punk-pixie-cyborg has kept relatively off the grid in recent months ever since the arrival of her human (?) baby, but she's quietly been working on something healing and innovative for the greater good of the world in the…
'Delete Forever': Grimes Grieves the Friends She's Lost to Drugs
God, everything from Miss Anthropocene looks and sounds so right. Grimes is due to arrive soon (and, soon enough, so is The Child) with her latest body of work, which promises to be more than worth the wait since 2015's Art Angels, a top album of that year. Having already supplied several…
'Violence': Grimes, of All People, Is Giving Us Choreography
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9SGYBHY0qs "Baby, it's violence..." It's, uh, difficult to predict what Grimes is going to do next, especially as of late: one minute she's accompanying a multi-billionaire to the Met Gala wearing a Tesla choker, stanning LOOΠΔ and duking it out with Azealia Banks…
'The Con X: Covers': Tegan & Sara Enlist Cyndi Lauper, Grimes, CHVRCHES & More to Reinterpret Their Record, 10 Years Later
Tegan & Sara, everyone's favorite Canadian identical twin lesbian singer-songwriters, are doing something special to celebrate the tenth anniversary of their 2007 record, The Con. As opposed to a reissue with some bonus tracks and rough takes tacked on (they've already done the demos thing once,…
The Top 20 Albums of 2015
Well, here we go. 2015 has been quite a year — personally, professionally and pop culturally speaking. I lived! I loved! I laughed! Actually, I mostly cried, because like a certain Canadian songbird, I have all of these E•MO•TIONs. (FORESHADOWING.) Anyway! We're knee-deep in list season now, and…
'Art Angels': Grimes Rejects The Rules of Pop and Paves Her Own Path
Don't bother trying to put Grimes into a specific category, because it's a futile exercise. "The whole purpose of Grimes is that it’s genreless. Trying to constantly put a genre label on it makes no sense and then you are always eating your words two months later. So, why bother?” she told The…
