Beautiful Day in the Cold Cruel World is the debut studio album by American country music duo the Warren Brothers. It was released on October 27, 1998, via BNA Records. It includes the singles "Guilty," "Better Man" and "She Wants to Rock," all of which charted in the top 40 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts.[1]

Pemberton Roach of AllMusic compared the album's sound to that of "slick, roots-influenced pop artists like Bruce Hornsby, Toad the Wet Sprocket and Glenn Frey" and said that it "avoid[s] any trace of Nashville clichés in favor of honest, straightforward lyrics and energetic, polished playing."[2]
