The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage is the third album by British singer-songwriter Peter Hammill. It was released on Charisma Records in 1974, during a hiatus in the activities of Hammill's progressive rock band Van der Graaf Generator. However, like many of Hammill's albums of this period, all the members of Van der Graaf Generator perform on the recording, blurring the distinction between solo and group work.

Peter Hammill stamps his authority all over the album, and at the same time he wildly exorcises his own personal existentialist ghosts. The album, just like VDGG's material, is a very experimental one. Very vocal driven, the music matches the lyrics everywhere. There are a few instrumental breaks, but the vocals are up front almost all the time. All of Hammill's best vocal styles are on display, from dark and tormented, to calm and beautiful. The Silent Corner & the Empty Stage is an almost perfect album and it covers a wide range of emotions and moods throughout. It presents Hammill's art in the best possible way. Once again, it's probably the most VDGG sounding record that he did. The Silent Corner is an album balancing his uncontrollable urge to rock out with his usual songwriting cleverness with skill, and it’s a good introduction to the world of Peter Hammill.

The lyrics are Hammill at his absolute best. At this stage I cannot think of any other male english lyricist who comes close to the visionary quality of his images and metaphors. First track, Modern, is an absolute stormer. Based on the top four open strings of the standard guitar tuning, that I still hum in my head to tune the guitar today, Hamill uses all the voices at his disposal to bewail the anonymity of modern city life. This, the third solo album from the VdGG mainman is probably the nearest, stylistically to the material he wrote for his mainband. Maybe not surprising as at this time VdGG were inactive, so this was his only outlet and actually all the rest of the band make an appearance! Pieces like "A Louse Is Not A Home" would later be played by the reformed band.
