Landlords / 4Chan

The Cool Garden is piss-funny. "Landlords" is a searing take on the perils of renting that devolves into Kafka-esque levels of preposterousness while also remaining frighteningly recognizable. It goes from personalized number plates to chimpanzee-staffed call centers in just under three minutes, sounding like the The Desperate Bicycles trying to rip off Hex Enduction Hour (1982). "4Chan" is a diary entry of sorts for a regular poster on the Internet's most infamous troll caves. Two unsympathetic guitar chords crash rudely into each other ad infinitum. An addictively excellent slice of horribly nervy pop music.
