FILTER Issue 16

Filter's latest venture into the great beyond finds us landing on "Planet Coldplay," high above the Windy City, plotting world domination with four blokes actually poised to do it. With X&Y currently finding its way into every household (yours, your mother's, your mother's father's) and the band set to conquer American arenas this summer, Filter Magazine proudly features Coldplay. Also not to be missed are Oasis, the Jesus and Mary Chain, Devendra Banhart, Harmony Korine & Kim Gordon, Judd Apatow (Freaks and Geeks) & Steve Carell (The Office), Foo Fighters, Feist, the Duke Spirit and much,much more.
