The Moles were a Sydney-born indie pop/rock band formed in the late 1980s, led by singer-songwriter Richard Davies. Known for their jangly guitars, wry lyrics, and lo-fi charm, they became cult favorites in Australia’s underground scene before Davies relocated to the UK and later formed the band Cardinal. Their music blended psychedelic flourishes with catchy melodies, earning comparisons to artists like The Go-Betweens and The Velvet Underground. Though short-lived, The Moles left a lasting influence on indie pop, with releases like *Flashbacks and Dream Sequences: The Story of The Moles* compiling their scattered output, including fan favorites like “Underground” and “What’s the New Mary Jane.” Their recent digital reissues and compilation tracks (like *Beauty Queen of Watts / Chills*) keep their quirky legacy alive for new listeners.
