The Moffs were an Australian psychedelic rock band formed in Sydney in 1984. Their 1985 song "Another Day in the Sun" attracted local and international underground attention.[1] Led by Tom Kazas, they incorporated many styles during their five-year career: psychedelic rock, progressive rock, blues rock, early post rock, 1960s and 1980s pop, free improvisation, impressionistic lyrics, Greek folk music styles, experimental composition and repetitive minimalist structures. The band's name was invented by misspelling the word 'moths'.
