Frontline Records was a Christian record label founded in 1986 by James Kempner. The label closed in the early 1990s.
Frontline Records became an important label in the development of the West Coast Christian alternative music scene. The label focused primarily on modern rock, rap, and hip-hop. Artist Terry Scott Taylor became the production manager for the label, and Drummer Ed McTaggart became the primary art director, designing many of the label's album covers. Sublabels included Intense Records and Alarma! Records, a resurrection of Taylor's early 1980s lablel.
