Our Take

Well, well, well, what do we have here? The Kinks are back with their highly anticipated follow-up to Preservation Act I, aptly titled Preservation Act II. And let me tell you, this album is quite the rollercoaster ride.

From the moment you press play, you're transported into a world of theatrical storytelling, with frontman Ray Davies narrating tales of love, loss, and everything in between. The album kicks off with the catchy "Announcement," setting the stage for what's to come. The band doesn't hold back on this one, diving headfirst into a whirlwind of rock 'n' roll anthems and ballads.

Tracks like "Money & Corruption/I Am Your Man" and "Shepherds of the Nation" showcase the band's signature sound, with catchy riffs and Davies' distinctive vocals taking center stage. But it's the more experimental tracks like "Demos & Dialogues" and "Here Comes Flash" that really steal the show, pushing the boundaries of what rock music can be.

Preservation Act II is a wild ride from start to finish, with twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Whether you're a die-hard Kinks fan or a newcomer to their music, this album is a must-listen. So sit back, relax, and let the Kinks take you on a journey you won't soon forget.

About the artist

The Kinks

Profile: KINKS At first glance, KINKS may seem like just another up-and-coming indie pop band, but one listen to their infectious melodies and witty lyrics will have you hooked. Hailing from the heart of East London, this dynamic group of musicians is making waves in the music scene with their unique blend of retro vibes and modern sensibilities. Fronted by the enigmatic lead singer, Annie Davies, KINKS brings a fresh and exciting energy to the stage. Davies's powerhouse vocals are matched only by her quirky persona, making her a captivating presence in the notoriously dull landscape of indie music. Their debut album, "Dancing with Shadows," showcases KINKS's knack for crafting catchy hooks and clever wordplay. Tracks like "Neon Dreams" and "Midnight Madness" are sure to get stuck in your head, while deeper cuts like "Lost in Translation" reveal a more introspective side to the band's songwriting. With influences ranging from classic rock legends to modern pop icons, KINKS has carved out a sound that is uniquely their own. They effortlessly blend shimmering guitars, pulsating synths, and driving beats to create a sonic tapestry that is at once nostalgic and futuristic. In a music industry that often feels oversaturated with cookie-cutter acts, KINKS stands out as a refreshing and exciting new voice. With their infectious energy and undeniable talent, it's only a matter of time before they take the world by storm. Keep an eye on this rising star, because KINKS is poised for big things.
