Crap Cardboard Pet is the third single, first 10” vinyl release by London DIY art pop doer known as The Cool Greenhouse. Deadpan bedroom pop inspired by early 1980s British post-punk and American no wave. Imagine a less confrontational John Cooper Clarke recording on his laptop. Observational pieces in the style of early The Fall. Let the ironic be hypnotic.

RIYL: The Fall, Drahla, Half Man Half Biscuit, Freak Genes and Sleaford Mods.

FCC WARNING: 1 & 3 (Socio-political parody pieces; no bad words but strong adult content).
