The Kinks - Misfits

The Kinks — Misfits (2024 Remaster)

180-gram vinyl

Reissue of the classic 1978 album

Remastered from the original 1/4-inch master tapes

Misfits is the 17th studio album by The Kinks, released in May 1978. Recording began in July 1977 at the band's Konk Studio in London and continued to establish the mainstream rock direction introduced with 1977's Sleepwalker.

The singles and standout tracks — "Misfits," "Rock 'N' Roll Fantasy," "Live Live," and "In A Foreign Land" explore themes of alienation, resilience, and the struggles of everyday life. Critics praised the introspective and often poignant songwriting and lyrics, recognizing the album as some of the band's most reflective and personal work.

Misfits holds a significant place in the Kinks' disography, showcasing their continued relevance and adaptability in the changing music landscape of the late 1970s. The album has been newly remastered from all original 1/4-inch tapes and is available here on 180-gram heavyweight vinyl.
