ART POP / SYNTHPOP
This kind of pop succeeds when the artist is really having fun (see: Bruno Mars), and really revels in the sounds of the time. As such, "Arizona Hwy," a song that is literally about driving down the Arizona Highway, is so funny and shiny that it's probably the best song on the record. It's goofy, sure, with its high, breathy vocals paired with adorable synth riffs, but it's really, really catchy. Elsewhere though, the slow, plodding "San Diego, 1988" is just a bit too on the nose with the '80s nostalgia, and is hampered by dragging synth.
