Broken Records became an important label in the development of both the West Coast Christian alternative music and Christian hip-hop scenes.[1] It focused primarily on modern rock, punk, and new wave music, paving the way for labels like Frontline Records. Artists signed to Broken Records included Level Heads, The Altar Boys, The Choir, Crumbächer, The 77s, 4-4-1, Riki Michele, Adam Again and Undercover. After having difficulties with its distributor, the label was for a time run successfully as Brainstorm Artists International.[2]
