Terrible (formerly Terrible Records) is a Los Angeles-based record label and artist management company founded by Chris Taylor and Ethan Silverman in 2009.[1] Originally based in Brooklyn, New York, the label operated as a joint venture imprint of XL Recordings and Beggars Group respectively.[2] It was distributed by Universal Music Group. After a short stint as a imprint with Interscope, Terrible Records is now distributed independently via Stem Distribution. Over the past 4 years Ethan Silverman's focus shifted toward management. His current management roster includes Claud, Sir Chloe, Petey, Exum, The Slaps, Mila Degray, Kali, Liam Benzvi and more.
The label was created in an attempt to spend more time working with and giving exposure to upcoming artists through the release of a number of 7" and 10" EPs.[3] Taylor also released his own solo material (under the moniker CANT) on the label. His solo debut album, Dreams Come True was released on September 13, 2011, via Terrible.[4]
