About Broken Flag

Broken Flag was founded in 1982 by Gary Mundy of Ramleh and Debbie Thomas. It was a sporadic but influential power electronics and industrial label which focused on radical music, noise, and power electronics. Its earliest releases centred on Mundy’s own project Ramleh before expanding to artists such as Le Syndicat, M.B., Controlled Bleeding, Giancarlo Toniutti, and other Mundy-related projects.

Mundy kept Broken Flag active as a label and distribution outlet, continuing to issue Ramleh material and related underground releases. This new “Morality” edition follows Fourth Dimension’s earlier reissue of another Broken Flag compilation, “Never Say When”.
