Youth Anthems for the New Order is the first album by punk band Reagan Youth. Recorded at High 5 Studios, NYC in 1983-1984, the album was released folded in a large two sided poster instead of a traditional album cover. It was subsequently re-released with three extra tracks as Volume 1 on New Red Archives.
The song "Degenerated" was used prominently in the film Airheads, sung by lead actor Brendan Fraser.[1] The song "I Hate Hate" was used in the 2023 animated film Robot Dreams.[2]
Youth Anthems for the New Order was re-released in 1990 by San Francisco indie label New Red Archives as Volume 1 with several different takes of songs recorded during the album sessions and three outtakes: "No Class", "Anytown", and "In Dog We Trust".
