Australian mad scientist Richard Davies has long flown under the popular radar with his groups The Moles and Cardinal, but his ten albums are loved and championed by indie rock roy alty. The Flaming Lips, for example, have recorded a Davies song and backed him up on a Moles tour in 1995. A scholar of the songwriting of The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Dylan et al., Davies spins off subtle, catchy indie rock melodies, sometimes reassembled in bizarre Frankenstein arrangements and deconstructed sonic derangements.
