Before After is the seventh studio album by the English synthpop band Heaven 17. It was originally released in September 2005, on the label Ninthwave, nine years after their previous album, Bigger Than America.
The album reached #6 on the Billboard Magazine Club Play Chart in April 2006. In September 2008, the band's cover of Blue Öyster Cult's "Don't Fear the Reaper" was featured on the American dark fantasy television series True Blood. A number of remixes of tracks from the album have appeared on online digital services such as iTunes and Amazon.com. It was the final album to feature founding member Ian Craig Marsh due to his decision to retire from music in 2007.
All songs written and composed by Glenn Gregory, Ian Craig Marsh, and Martyn Ware.
Track marked with an asterisk (*) does not appear on the US release, although it is mentioned in the booklet.
