The Youth Are Getting Restless is a live album from hardcore punk & reggae pioneers Bad Brains, recorded live at the Melkweg Theater in Amsterdam, Holland, in 1987 as part of the band's I Against I tour. It remains one of the group's best selling albums.

The album captures Bad Brains in concert at the height of their commercial and critical peak, featuring a diverse mix of violent hardcore punk, mellow reggae, funk, and heavy metal. Two of the reggae tracks are cover songs: Dennis Brown's "Revolution" and a rearranged medley of the Rolling Stones's "She's a Rainbow" combined with the Beatles's "Day Tripper".
