MTV Unplugged (Live in Melbourne) is the first live album by Australian alternative band Gang of Youths. Gang of Youths were the first band to record a MTV Unplugged live in Australia in the new millennium.[3][4]

The album includes nine tracks from their album Go Farther in Lightness and one from their EP Let Me Be Clear.[5] Gang of Youths bassist Max Dunn said the performance was a "pretty important moment" for the group, explaining "it's a cool chance to do something a little different and stretch ourselves and give the fans a little more experience of the songs."[6]

The recording took place at Cobblestone Pavilion, West Melbourne on 25 July 2018 and was broadcast on MTV Australia on 19 August 2018.[6] The album was released on 26 October 2018.
