Brutal Youth is an album by Elvis Costello released in 1994. This is the first album Costello recorded with his band the Attractions since Blood and Chocolate (1986). The several albums in between were recorded with session musicians. Brutal Youth was the third, and most recent of Costello's albums, to peak at number two in the UK Albums Chart, following on from Armed Forces (1979) and Get Happy!! (1980). To date, no Costello album has reached the number one spot in that listing.

It was among the six Costello albums featured in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.

All songs by Declan MacManus unless otherwise indicated.
