Front was first published by Cabal Communications in 1998, it was created to rival IPC's publication Loaded. It is part of the British "lads' mag" genre of magazines.
The title's first editor was Piers Hernu who aimed to create a magazine with more attitude than its rivals. The magazine has been responsible for a number of high profile stunts most notably smugling an Eric Cantona look-a-like into the Manchester United team photo during a Champions League game. Today it is edited by Joe Barnes and published by SMD publishing who are based in Docklands, London.
