Rediscover a raw rock gem with The Kinks’ 1984 album Word of Mouth—a bold follow-up to their chart-topping success State of Confusion. Now available on high-quality vinyl, this underrated classic captures the band’s hard rock resurgence with gritty riffs, sharp lyrics, and a no-frills sound that cuts straight to the core.
While State of Confusion gave The Kinks their biggest single in decades with “Come Dancing,” Word of Mouth shifts gears, trading pop nostalgia for hard-edged rock anthems. Featuring the circular, synth-laced minor hit “Do It Again,” the album highlights Ray Davies' uncompromising songwriting and the band's refusal to chase trends.
Perfect for fans of classic rock, British invasion bands, or collectors building a comprehensive Kinks vinyl discography, this LP is a must-have piece of '80s rock history.

In 1984, the Kinks continued their winning streak with their stellar effort Word Of Mouth. For this amazing release, Ray Davies, Dave Davies & Co. expand their arena rock sound into a unique brand of rock and storytelling like no other.
With 11 solid new rockers including big radio hits like "Do It Again," "Living On A Thin Line" and the stellar title track "Word Of Mouth," the entire LP has become an enduring Kinks classic.
Filled with even more favorites like "Good Day" & "Summer's Gone," The Kinks truly delivered one of their most important albums of the mid '80s with their final Arista Records masterwork Word Of Mouth.
It is with much pleasure the Friday Music continues their lengthy reissue program with another fine installment in The Kinks/ Friday Music Series with their masterpiece Word Of Mouth, now for the very first time anywhere on stunning Red Audiophile Vinyl.

Shipping
Orders typically ship within two business days. Media Mail might be budget-friendly, but it travels at a glacial pace and gets little love from the postal service. For faster, smoother delivery, choose USPS Priority or UPS/USPS Ground.
Returns
Unopened returns accepted within 30 days — you cover shipping.
If your record arrives damaged or folded (thanks, postal service), reach out ASAP so we can fix it.
After 30 days, it’s yours to keep forever.
Avoid extreme heat or sunlight. Definitely don’t let it mingle with any Justin Bieber records. Treat it like your grandma — gentle, respectful, and quiet during Murder, She Wrote.
