Main title, as quote, in a bold font and colour which links to the artists hair and clothes. Makes the contents page feel more personal and connected to the magazine.

The band’s logo to make it easy to recognise as the bands name is not featured in the title.

The article has been split onto both pages. This side of the page features two columns which is conventional of music magazines. It is rare that only one column is used for the whole article. It is small so that more information can be included and the colour contrasts the background to make it easier to read. It does not spill of the page but is not too far in, and it also keeps a good distance away from the centre to avoid distortion of the text.

A small quote from the person in the main image and underneath the title. Also the same person who said the quote in the title. It is not bold and eye-catching which has a more mysterious and meaningful feel to it. More quotes make the reader feel more attached to the article.

The start of each paragraph is highlighted in red text to mark the start of each paragraph but also links to a more general feel of rock never being the same and consistent, that no matter how little its always different to everything else. It also makes it more exciting for a reader rather than keeping it boring.

Another of the band’s logos. To keep a house style of the band for the particular issue this article was in.

This side of the text is the same as the otherside to keep a house style for the article, however it is in one column perhaps to keep the page neat and clear.

The image is bold and the main focus of the article. It features one member of the band, the lead singer, and his facial expressions imply he is upset or down. This relates to the article as it is about the band breaking up. The fact he is alone implies this and his body language suggests he cannot bring himself t face the camera. His clothes link to the style of rock and the colour scheme fits in with the text around him. The background is plain and simple and contrasts his bright red hair and clothes.

The line at the top links back to the categories in the contents page to let the reader know they are in the right place, and to elaborate further where they are in the magazine.

There is a quote from the band which is conventional of most article pages in music magazines. It is bold and simple but makes the reader want to find out what they “won’t be expecting”. The text is more sans, so very sharp and bold and the black makes it stand out against the background of the picture.

The image is very simple and features all band members looking comfortable. This shows their childlike personalities as a conventional photo is very professional whereas this looks like they are taking the mic. This links back to the genre. They are all making eye contact with the camera which has a very personal effect on the reader. Also their clothes are very casual and link to the modern pop rock theme.

The background looks as if it is in a living room. It is very simple which means that the main focus of the image is the band. The brown floor links to what some of them are wearing and the cream sofa fits in with it too. The white background is simple and the drop shadow behind which makes the quote/title easy to read.

Conventionally split into two columns to make it easy to read. Whit text on a separate blue background with yellow text to mark the beginning of each paragraph. Title is very bold and stands out, but also fits the colour scheme. Is pushed to the right so that the image is the main focus and the text is very small so the pages look neat, clear and more information can be put on.
