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. 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 magazine ran for 14 issues, 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 ümlaut, which began a long-standing harassment campaign by the musicians, claiming to have been taken advantage of by the publishing collective.
Famous quotes containing the word front:
“Love is the hardest thing in the world to write about. So simple. You’ve got to catch it through details, like the early morning sunlight hitting the gray tin of the rain spout in front of her house. The ringing of a telephone that sounds like Beethoven’s “Pastoral.” A letter scribbled on her office stationery that you carry around in your pocket because it smells of all the lilacs in Ohio.”
—Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
