Blood Youth was an English hardcore punk band formed in Harrogate in 2014. They released three studio albums, two EPs and a short-form documentary produced by Kerrang!.
The band was formed in 2014 by Chris Pritchard (guitar), Sam Bowden (guitar), Matt Powels (drums) and Max Dawson (bass), who were the final line-up of Leicester melodic hardcore band Climates, in addition to former Book of Job vocalist Kaya Tarsus. Their earliest releases made use of a melodic style of heavy metal-influenced hardcore punk, while their post-2018 output has veered closer to the nu metal genre. The both entered a hiatus at the beginning of 2023, by which time their line-up consisted of Pritchard (guitar), Matt Hollinson (bass), Brad Ratcliffe (drums) and Harry Rule (vocals).
