Broken is the debut EP and major-label debut by American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, released on September 22, 1992 by Nothing Records, TVT Records, Interscope Records, and Atlantic Records. It is the band's second release following their debut studio album, Pretty Hate Machine (1989), and consists entirely of new material. Produced by frontman Trent Reznor and Flood, it replaces the synthpop style of Pretty Hate Machine with a considerably heavier sound that would act as a precursor for Nine Inch Nails' acclaimed second studio album, The Downward Spiral (1994).

The music videos that accompanied five of the eight tracks from the EP were widely censored from television airplay due to their disturbing content. Nevertheless, "Wish" won the Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance at the 35th Grammy Awards, and the Woodstock '94 performance of "Happiness in Slavery" won the same award at the 38th Grammy Awards. Contributing to the band's growing mainstream success, Broken debuted to generally positive reactions, and peaked at number seven on the US Billboard 200 chart. A companion remix EP titled Fixed was released in late 1992.
