Our Take

Ah, The Kinks - a band that has always defied categorisation and pushed the boundaries of what it means to be a rock band. Their latest release, "Muswell Hillbillies" (2022 Standalone), is no exception.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world where razor-sharp guitars and witty lyrics reign supreme. This album is a masterclass in storytelling, with frontman Ray Davies weaving tales of everyday life in Muswell Hill with unmatched charm and wit.

Tracks like "20th Century Man" and "Oklahoma U.S.A." showcase the band's ability to blend rock, country, and folk influences into a seamless tapestry of sound. Each song feels like a mini-movie, with vivid characters and vivid imagery that will transport you to a bygone era.

But it's not all nostalgia and quaint English charm - there's a dark undercurrent running through this album, with songs like "Alcohol" and "Here Come the People in Grey" tackling themes of addiction and societal decay with raw honesty.

Overall, "Muswell Hillbillies" is a triumph for The Kinks, proving once again why they are one of the most important bands in rock history. So grab a cup of tea, sit back, and let the music of Muswell Hill wash over you - you won't be disappointed.
