Stereogum recently ran something entitled Kinks Reunion Impossible Because “Ray Davies Is An Asshole”.

Quoting Romeo Void, "never say never."
P.S. Although I haven't heard it, there is a link between the Kinks and Romeo Void - namely, the Queens of the Stone Age album Rated R (Deluxe Edition); the bonus disc includes covers of the aforementioned "Never Say Never" from Romeo Void, and the Kinks' "Who’ll Be The Next in Line."
