The Future Is Medieval is the fourth studio album released by English rock band Kaiser Chiefs.

It is the final album to feature original drummer Nick Hodgson before his departure from the band in December 2012.

The album was later re-issued in North America, under the new title Start the Revolution Without Me.

Around the same time, a special limited edition vinyl box set was released through the band's official website in the United Kingdom, containing the entire twenty-three tracks from the digital deluxe version of the album, spread across four 10" vinyl records.
