Bad Brains “The Youth Are Getting Restless” 1990. Caroline Records. Recorded live at the Paradiso Theater, Amsterdam on May 28th, 1987 while on tour for their album I Against I (released late ‘86, an album I had on repeat throughout most of ‘87). Hardcore punk mixed with alt-metal, reggae and a dose of funk, Bad Brains was one of the best and most creative punk bands in the 80′s. The Youth Are Getting Restless plays like a greatest hit LP with live versions of tracks from I Against I like “House of Suffering,” “Sacred Love,” “Re-ignition” and “Let Me Help.” From their ‘82 debut album Bad Brains (some also appearing, re-recorded, on their second LP in ‘83  Rock for Light, produced by The Cars’ Ric Ocasek): “I,” “Coptic Times,” “Big Takeover,” “Fearless Vampire Killer,” “Sailin’ On,” “Banned in DC” (about being banned from performing at almost all clubs in Washington, DC) and, of course, “Pay to Cum,” their 1980 debut single which is “one of the fastest, most furious songs ever recorded.” That song was also my gateway to Bad Brains: it’s on the ‘81 Alternative Tentacles punk comp Let Them Eat Jellybeans! which was one of my first punk vinyl comp LP purchases. The Youth Are Getting Restless has two covers: a mellow reggae’d mashup of The Beatles’ “Day Tripper” with The Rolling Stones “She’s a Rainbow” and “Revolution (dub)” originally by Dennis Brown.
