The Alarm is a studio EP by The Alarm. It was released in 1983 by IRS Records, initially on 12 inch vinyl and cassette. The cassette was released in the UK with the "68 Guns" single. A re-mastered version was released with bonus tracks in 2000.

The Alarm was the band's first album release, though two excerpted singles, "Marching On" and "The Stand", were both released before the EP. "For Freedom" was recorded live at The Marquee, Wardour Street, London W.1. on 30 January 1983.
