This Kerrang magazine is appealing to its reader, this is becuase there are alot of black colours

this matches its rock theme as people tend to think of black colours when they think of rock and metal music. also the facial expressions of the band is very unhappy, this shows the serious faces and the seriousness of there music and it also shows the nature of their songs as they are quite deep and angry. also the colour scheme of black and white matching shows it is bland so its is purely about the music . and the red border and red sub-headings show anger, which is also helping the image of the magazine. The fonts are the same on most of the magazines and they are big, bold and clear which helps to emphasis things about the band, the layout of the page is in three so the magazine has three columns as you can see form the pictures in the bottom and from where the barcode is put. also the way the band are looking at you helps to catch the attention of the reader.

This Magazine, NME is alot brighter and more colourful, as you can see from all of the colors as it is mostly reds and blacks which stand out, this is also similar to the style of the magazine as it is quite a ' diffrent ' combination , which tells me the magazine is aiming for more of a alternative audience, and again the facial expressions are very serious and agressive, this is also to show how serious there music is and what message they are trying to get across to the audience. The layout of this magazine is quite hard to work out as it looks as if it is a 3 column layout but then at the bottom this goes wrong as there are no columns so to me it looks as if it is a two column with one big one and a smaller one. the colour scheme also helps to emphasise the act as they are wearing black clothes and are on a white back ground with red writing to make it stand out more and match the colour scheme of the logo. also the band looking at you helps to catch the readers attention when it is on the shelf.
