Though currently undertaking a North American tour, shoe-gazing Montreal crew No Joy have also just let loose a hazy new video for their Wait to Pleasure standout "Blue Neck Riviera."

Mixed in with shots of old buildings and bizarre floating objects are scenes of a young woman strolling across an outdoorsy beach scene. The water must've been damned cold, because she eventually takes a dip wearing a hoodie. Surreal tracers and assorted digital post-production effects are spliced into the finished product, and you can drink it all in via the video player down below.
