Kerrang Double Page Spread Analysis

This double page spread is from the Rock genre, Kerrang magazine. With red usually being associated with danger and black being a dark colour, they fit in with the Rock genre of the magazine. By using these colours, Kerrang magazine automatically connect with their readers. With the headings boldly written in capital letters, this grabs the eye of readers and perhaps suggests they are shouting and more authorative. The rest of the text on the page is small and a simple font which makes it easy to read. Using the colours red, black and white help appeal to a male and female audience of all ages. By using 'WORLD EXCLUSIVE' and 'NEWS', this could possibly attract a wider fanbase as people will be interested in reading about My Chemical Romance. The use of images of My Chemical Romance show that they are a popular band within the Rock genre. All images are taken with a musical instrument too, which shows their passion for the music they are producing.  With such small text and several large images, it perhaps shows that Kerrang magazine don't intend on educating readers, but focusing on image more.
