First impressions surmised that anything Grimes related would be off limits to the crevices on the side of my head. Seemed like it might be some art wank along the lines of Joanna Newson but with electro pulses instead of a plucked harp string. Surprised I was then that this song has been swishing around my general environs for the last few days. Clare Boucher supplies the audio and the drama with the venerable 4AD appearing to be providing the ammunition. ‘Visions’ is her 4th offspring in less than as many years so this is a prolific creative manifestation. It all sounds machine-like but the collective nuts and bolts are as close to human as we’ve heard yet. KD
