Inside Front was an anarchist/ hardcore punk magazine published from January 1994 to 2003. It was the first project to come from the CrimethInc Ex-Workers' Collective, a decentralized anarchist publisher operating anonymously in the United States.[1] Identifying itself as an "International Journal of Hardcore Punk and Anarchist Action", Inside Front spent almost eight years pairing revolutionary anarchism with the contemporary anarcho-punk culture, calling for an aggressive attack on modern dominant society.
| “ | …the best thing about Inside Front is probably the real life stories told and referred to within its pages, by people who are trying to create revolutionary possibilities in their own lives.—- CrimethInc.com[2] | ” |
The magazine ran for 14 issues,[2][3] the final seven of which were accompanied by a supplementary compact disc or vinyl record compiling what it saw as "cutting edge hardcore punk". One of these was the release of Finnish musicians[4] ümlaut, which began a long-standing harassment campaign by the musicians, claiming to have been taken advantage of by the publishing collective.
