FILTER is a seasonal American music and off-beat entertainment
magazine which was founded in 2002. It features commentary and photos of up-and-coming musicians and filmmakers ranging from actors to writer-directors. Each season's (Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall, and Holiday) issue highlights a reasonably well-known cover artist while also taking a look at smaller artists under the heading "Getting to Know". The magazine also includes reviews of forthcoming albums and DVDs.
