Worldbroken is a live album by post-hardcore band Saccharine Trust, released in 1985 through SST. The album was recorded live and completely improvised.[2] Mike Watt of Minutemen stepped in to play bass for the 1985 show.[2]

Worldbroken received critical praise[3] and was an influence on Unknown Instructors' first album The Way Things Work[4] Double bassist Damon Smith, who appeared on the Grizzly Man soundtrack,[5] has credited the album with altering his views on punk rock, jazz, and free-form jamming.[6]
