Paste is a bimonthly music and entertainment magazine published in the United States by Paste Media Group LLC. Its tagline is "Signs of Life in Music, Film and Culture."

The magazine, headquartered in Decatur, Georgia, was founded as a quarterly in July 2002 by Josh Jackson, Nick Purdy, and Tim Porter. It switched to a bimonthly format amid increased popularity and the addition of Joe Kirk to the managing team, and continued to grow with the 2005 purchase of competing magazine Tracks, which had ceased publication of its print edition.

Paste's focus is music, covering a variety of genres with an emphasis on adult album alternative, Americana and indie rock. "Film" was added to its tagline with the December/January 2004 issue, which featured a cover story on filmmaker Wes Anderson.

Each issue of the magazine includes a CD music sampler or a DVD containing short films, movie and game trailers and music videos; some issues include both.
