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. The song "I Hate Hate" was used in the 2023 animated film Robot Dreams.
