Broken Records (record Label)
Broken Records was a Christian record label founded in 1985. The label closed in the early 1990s.
Broken Records became an important label in the development of the West Coast Christian alternative music scene, paving the way for labels like Frontline. Broken Records focused primarily on modern rock, punk and new wave music. Artists signed to the label included Level Heads, The Altar Boys, The Choir, Crumbächer, The 77s, 4-4-1, Riki Michele, Adam Again and Undercover. The label was for a time run successfully by Brainstorm Artists International.

Could have risen to the clouds,
Could have touched these winds,
Bent and broken them down,
Could have stood up sharply in the sky.”
