Cold House is the fifth studio album by English rock band Hood. It was released on Domino Recording Company in 2001. Three tracks feature vocal contributions from Doseone and Why?, two-thirds of Clouddead. "You Show No Emotion at All" was released as a single from the album.

Cold House received generally favorable reviews from critics. Metacritic gave the album a rating of 87 out of 100, based on 14 reviews. Phillip Sherburne of Cleveland Scene called it "not only one of the most melancholy records of late, but also a triumph of musical gene splicing, drawing together folk-flavored indie rock and the skittering beats of experimental electronica". Nathan Rooney of Pitchfork Media noted that "with Cold House, Hood seem to have finally stumbled into a sound all their own". Bradley Torreano of AllMusic described the album as "the next step toward the icy-cold future of alternative rock that Kid A forecasted".
