Choice Is Yours Vol. 70: Specials Vs. The Village Green Preservation Society
The Specials – Specials (1979)
Vs.
The Kinks – Are the Village Green Preservation Society (1968)
The Game is simple… if only one could exist which would it be? What’s more important… personal relevance, cultural significance, or simply being the better album all other things aside? Choice is yours…

The Specials. Without question! The Kinks are great, but “Village Green” doesn’t touch it.

This tough. I’m going with the Kinks though. I can’t relate to the heavy British-ness of the album, but every track is so damn catchy.
But damn, Little Bitch is my jam.

I think Village Green is widely accepted as one of the Kink’s greatest.

It is. The songwriting on Village Green is incredible.

Theoch…Are you shitting me?
No kinks, no metal.
Simple as that – they were the first to make riffs heavy.
