intro
Superb download only comeback single from great lost Australian band, the Moles
Richard Davies is recording as the Moles for the first time in twenty-one years. Their back catalogue is soon to be re-released by Fire. Richard is joined here by former members of Real Estate and Scott and Charlene's Wedding, 'Beauty Queen of Watts' is a swaggering, summery acoustic number that recalls Teenage Fanclub at their best. 'Chills' is a tribute to the band of the same name. There is a darker picture here, more of a New York and primitive Velvet Underground feel than the Sydney beach vibe of the previous track, but both tracks are a strong comeback from this great lost band.
