Template:Album ratings The Future Now is the seventh studio album by Peter Hammill, released on Charisma Records in 1978. It was the first solo album Hammill released following the 1978 breakup of his band Van der Graaf Generator, although he had released numerous solo albums while Van der Graaf Generator were active. The album contains twelve short songs, several in the new wave style of Van der Graaf Generator's last studio album, The Quiet Zone/The Pleasure Dome.
The album cover shows a set of photographs by Brian Griffin, portraying Peter Hammill with half of his moustache and beard shaven.
"If I Could" was re-worked for Hammill's 1984 album The Love Songs.
