The Filth Zine is a literary zine by Karley Bayer.

Based in Baltimore, Maryland, U.S.A., The Filth Zine is a 20+, full-sized, black and white publication. The binding is sewn by the Filth’s creator, editor and short story contributor Karley Bayer.

Writer/contributors include:

  • Dr. John Callaghan: a martial artist, originally from New York City, with 40 years experience in judo, karate, kung fu, and the Filipino art of stick and knife fighting. He has a doctorate in both psychology and metaphysics. He is an Original Punk, having lived on the Lower East Side through the later 70's and 80's and partying my ass off, and kissed Deborah Harry on the cheek! He has also written for Gag Me With A ..., The F Bomb, and Grace Notes.
  • Tina Armstrong: (nee Christina Wheeler) lives, writes, loves, fights, and dreams in Tacoma, WA. She started The F-Bomb zine in 2009 and regularly contributes to other zines including The Filth Zine and Gag Me With A…, among others. She’s escaped death 5 times in the past 6 years and often wonders how many of her nine lives she has left. (Four?) She prefers to take a sarcastic/humorous tone in her non-fiction stories and will only write micro-fiction, if at all. Real life is much too strange to not be able to bend it into an entertaining story. She is currently-supposed to be-working on two books, one as a ghost-writer for someone’s autobiography and another as a compliation cookbook.

Each issue of The Filth features an interview with a DJ or independent musician, and an exclusive CD. Previous guests have included: Da Moth (LA based), Ace Hernandez and the No Boom Boom Soul Brother (Baltimore), Sir Morbit (Odessa, Texas), DJ Raiu (Gainesville, Florida), and Gring-Oh-Star (LA).

Contrary to the name, The Filth does NOT specialize in stories about unicorns and rainbows, “lost puppies finding their way home against impossible odds”, or peach cobbler. The zine also contains drawings, photos, and comics.

The Filth comes out four times a year. The birthday issue (The Filth will be ONE!) will hit the streets in early January 2012.
