The Final Cut is a rock album by Pink Floyd recorded at several studios in the UK from July to December 1982. The LP was released in the UK on March 21, 1983 and then in the US on April 2. The Final Cut reached #1 on the UK album charts and #6 in the US. On May 23, 1983, The Final Cut went Gold and Platinum and then Double Platinum on January 31, 1997.

Originally scheduled as the film soundtack for the band's movie The Wall, it evolved into a new concept album, railing against war.

"Not Now John" was released as a single (with the chorus' "fuck all that" overdubbed as "stuff all that"), backed by an extended version of "The Hero's Return". There was also a video EP, with film accompaniment for four of the songs.

In 1986, the album was released on CD. A digitally re-mastered CD was released in 1994.
