The Flowers of Romance is the third studio album by the English post-punk band Public Image Ltd, released on 10 April 1981 by Virgin Records. The album was recorded at The Manor Studio and Townhouse Studios over the course of two months in late 1980. The group's first studio album recorded following the departure of bassist Jah Wobble, The Flowers of Romance found PiL delving further into an experimental sound. It was recorded mainly by frontman John Lydon and guitarist Keith Levene, both of whom made heavy use of percussion, tape editing, and various effects. While the album has maintained a lower critical profile than their previous two albums, the album has still received acclaim and has been cited as an influence by various bands and musicians.
