- Music for Nations was a British independent record label focusing mainly on rock and metal. They were a subsidiary of the larger label distributor Zomba Records who in turn is owned by BMG. Launched in 1983 by Martin Hooker, Music For Nations established itself as a European leader in the rock and metal world, with early signings like Tank, Exciter, Metallica (who had three gold albums while on MFN), Slayer and Megadeth paving the way. As Music For Nations grew, the company expanded its operation to include not just licensed acts from the USA, but its own signings. It released albums by artists including Paradise Lost, Opeth, Anathema, Cradle of Filth, Testament and countless other metal bands. As well as the traditional metal bands Music for Nations went on to sign up and coming UK bands such as Tigertailz who had a top 40 album while signed to Music for Nations In 2004, the label officially closed its doors. The company's catalog — which had also previously included titles from artists as varied as Lost Horizon and Frank Zappa — was folded into parent company Zomba Records Group.

- Music for Nations var et britisk plateselskap som hovedsakelig fokuserte på rock og metal. De var et datterselskap av det større distribusjonsselskapet Zomba Records, som igjen er eid av RCA. Selskapet ble dannet i 1983 av Martin Hooker, og Music For Nations etablerte seg selv som ledende i Europa innen rock og metal, med tidlige signeringer som Metallica (som hadde tre gullalbum mens de var hos MFN), Slayer og Megadeth som ryddet vei for dem. Etterhvert som Music For Nations vokste utvidet selskapet driften til ikke bare å omfatte band som var lisensiert fra USA, men også egne signeringer. De ga ut album av artister som blant annet Paradise Lost, Opeth, Anathema, Cradle of Filth, Testament og mange andre metal-band. I 2004 stengte selskapet offisielt dørene. Selskapets katalog — som også hadde titler fra så vidt forskjellige artister som Lost Horizon og Frank Zappa — ble lagt inn i morselskapet Zomba Label Group, som i dag er eid av Sony BMG.
