Misfits is the seventeenth 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 album marked a period of significant personnel changes: longtime bassist John Dalton left the band after the release of Sleepwalker but still features on several tracks that originated during those sessions. He was replaced for one album only by Andy Pyle. The album was also the last to feature pianist John Gosling.
The singles and standout tracks—""Misfits,"" ""Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy,"" ""Live Life,"" 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' discography, showcasing their continued relevance and adaptability in the changing music landscape of the late 1970s. The album has been newly remastered from all original ¼” tapes and is available on heavyweight vinyl, CD, and HD digital formats.
