Broken Records is the house label for Best Band Never, which means we get first dibs on whatever gets invented here—a responsibility we take seriously about half the time. Our roster spans from Vowel Movement's consonant-free punk to My Drunk Uncle's yodeling noise rock to Cry of the Muppets' felt-based doom, which is to say we're less interested in coherence than in whether something makes you listen twice. If you're looking for a unifying aesthetic, you've come to the wrong place; if you're looking for bands that sound like nobody else because nobody else would think to make them, you're in the right one.
