The Golden Year is the only studio album by English synth-pop band Ou Est le Swimming Pool, released on 11 October 2010 by Fire & Manouvre.

The suicide of frontman Charles Haddon on 20 August 2010 led to uncertainties about the status of the album.

However, the band's management issued a statement confirming its release in October 2010.

The original album had been leaked in early 2010, due to the sale of promotional copies on auction sites such as eBay.
