Om The Kinks

Carey Fleiner examines English rock group the Kinks and their social and cultural influences both on and by the group from the early ''60s to present day. In and around the biographical survey of the band''s career, The Kinks looks at the several contexts in which the KinksΓÇöand more recently, band founders and brother Ray and Dave Davies as solo actsΓÇöcreated and performed their work. Fleiner explores through the band''s remarkably rich output their use of lyrical and musical devices to produce everything from social satire to teary-eyed nostalgia to offer commentary on contemporary politics, family life and relations, and the Kinks'' own image as exemplarsΓÇöironically and in earnestΓÇöof a distinctly English national identity.
