Return of the Moffs

I've been waiting for this one for some time now. About a year ago I read on Tom Kazas' (Moffs bass player) website that a two CD reissue of nearly ever Moffs song would be on the way. It has taken some time but the reissue has finally materialized. The 2CD set, called The Collection is available through the Aussie label Feel Presents, who have been putting out some nice reissues of 70's and 80's Australian rock in recent years, including two Tales from the Underground compilations.

The Moffs were a psychedelic/mod/garage rock outfit that was on Citadel records in the 80's. Citadel was the home to many of the Radio Birdman related projects, Died Pretty, and several other quality bands. The Moffs were somewhat overlooked even back then as they had more of a pscyh bent than garage rock like most of the other bands on the label's roster.

This reissue brings together all the officially released songs of the band, some of which have never been on CD before. This inlcludes the tracks from the LP Labryinth, their self titled EP, and 7" singles. In addition, there are six tracks from their origianl demo tape, some covers, and several later era demos.
