Les Kinks étaient un groupe anglais, formé dans le nord de Londres en 1964. Bien que l'on se souvienne surtout des commentaires sociaux du leader Ray Davies, souvent cités comme une influence sur des groupes comme The Jam et Blur, ils étaient à l'origine une version plus dure des Who. Leur comportement tapageur sur scène surpassait même celui de Townshend et Moon, et ils ont été interdits de concert en Amérique de 1965 à 1969, ce qui a mis fin à leurs chances de réussir dans ce pays. Le son des débuts du groupe est caractérisé par les expérimentations de Dave Davies à la guitare : "You Really Got Me" et "All Day and All of the Night" sont le résultat de son jeu avec un ampli endommagé, tandis que Ray a été inspiré par le bourdonnement de "See My Friends" après avoir entendu des pêcheurs indiens chanter sur le chemin du travail. Cette chanson a inspiré des morceaux comme "Norwegian Wood" et "Paint It Black". À la suite d'une dépression, Ray change ses priorités. Le groupe n'est plus un groupe de rock à haute énergie, mais il écrit des chansons sur la vie ordinaire. Les produits de cette période comprennent "Sunny Afternoon", "The Village Green Preservation Society" et "Waterloo Sunset". À mesure que les années 60 se transforment en années 70, la vision de Ray s'élargit et il commence à écrire des opéras rock théâtraux. Bien qu'acclamés par la critique, ce sont des échecs commerciaux, et le groupe revient à son style caractéristique à la fin des années 70. Ils sont intronisés au Rock & Roll Hall of Fame en 1990, et se séparent officiellement en 1996. La formation classique se composait des frères Ray et Dave Davies pour la composition et la voix, Dave pour la guitare principale et Ray pour la guitare rythmique, soutenus par Pete Quaife à la basse et Mick Avory à la batterie. Au milieu des années 60, le groupe collaborait fréquemment avec le célèbre claviériste Nicky Hopkins. Le groupe a fini par engager des claviéristes permanents, et seuls les frères Davies sont restés au moment de leur séparation. Les deux frères ont poursuivi des carrières solo depuis.
