“In a June 1974 edition of The Sunday Times magazine, a double-page colour photograph depicts an unsmiling group of five young women and one young man, wildly dressed and intensely made up. Their style resembles that of the New York Dolls combined with kabuki theatre, early Roxy Music and an amateur pantomime. They glower into the camera: hostile, haughty, inscrutable and absurd. these were the Moodies, a group of students from the Fine Art department of Reading University and they were concerned with the slippery but rewarding dialogues between high and low cultural forms, gender, androgyny and sexuality, performance art and pop."
