"Thanks to Ray Davies, Misfits is very nearly a masterpiece because it anatomizes rather than glorifies Davies’ role as 'One of the Survivors', as the Kinks sang five years ago."
- Rolling Stone
Misfits is the seventeenth studio album by the English rock band the Kinks. The album was released in 1978. Following the minor success of Sleepwalker in the United States, Misfits featured a more rock-oriented style than many other Kinks records of the 1970s.
The album was recorded at Konk Studios in London following the band's tumultuous 1977 tour. Despite internal conflicts within the band, leading to both bassist Andy Pyle and pianist John Gosling quitting the band, the album made the Top 40 in America.
