'Art Angels' reveals itself to be an idiosyncratic pop album - replete with cheery hooks, blithe melodies, K-pop nods, 80s sounds, guitars, and structure where before Grimes artily meandered.

Grimes makes a special kind of weird pop which is far removed from any of that of her peers and extremely broad in it's references. Frequently beautiful, melancholic and scary but always immediate, her tracks are a peculiarly accessible mix of Broadcast, Bjork, Kate Bush and the codeine heavy beats of Nite Jewel. Her debut record 'Geidi Primes' is the synthesis of this unconventional, genre-bending approach to music. 'Gambang' is led by a playful sample and Boucher's chameleon like vocals; the melancholic 'Venus in Fleurs' pairs a post-rock guitar line with a salem-style low end; and album standouts 'Avi' and 'Fyed Rautha Dark Heart' offer up two supremely catchy pop choruses.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arbutus","offers":[{"title":"Black | LP","offer_id":50428878881099,"sku":"397413","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50428877177163,"sku":"398773","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/8e032c3e-455a-4256-a71c-9c2330f61af2_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726836101"},{"product_id":"miss-anthropocene","title":"Miss Anthropocene","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrimes\u003c\/strong\u003e releases her long awaited new album \u003cem\u003eMiss Anthropocene\u003c\/em\u003e on 4AD.

And 'Halfaxa', her second album, feels like the dictionary from which we might discern just where this being comes from. 'Halfaxa' is simultaneously more human than 'Geidi Primes', and yet falls deeper into a hole of mystical obscurity. The lyrics, as throughout this album, are designed to be an additional instrument, and not necessarily a device that gives obvious meaning to the proceedings. There is a strong focus on primeval and simplistic percussion to Boucher's music, though apprehensive to compare it directly to club music. Even with all the fog and barriers she presents us with, at the core of her music is the human heart. There is a heartbeat in every note. Her breath is often used as a percussive element. Somehow, Grimes says more about life through her methodology than through what she literally chooses to say.
