This album is really fun and they have a knack for these wacky hauntological almost-kitsch syncopated refrains (“Do-do, you connect all the dots? / Do-do-do, you collect all my thoughts?”). If you remove it from its aesthetic trappings, this is a very optimistic and approachable album. I was in a coma for the last three years so I have no cultural context for any sort of “aesthetic subculture” Riviera might be representative of but this was the first album I listened to after I woke up and I really like it :)
